Sullo, B. (2007). Inspiring through collaboration.  In Activating the desire to learn. (pp. 97-111).  Alexandria, VA: ASCD.

An interesting chapter relating the story of “Ron,” a successful principal who used internal control theory as a key tool in his leadership style.  We get information about Ron and his success from interviews with some of his staff members and Ron himself.  This was a good narrative describing an effective implementation of the internal control theory of motivation.
