Front line sales professionals work in an environment that is demanding and requires the ability to set and accomplish specific goals within a minimal timeframe. Their success or failure is dependent on their ability to satisfy their customers, reach sales goals, and align with the requirements of their organizational leaders. The problem was that it was unclear how employees' stress and locus of control (LOC) were related to their work performance in a sales environment. The purpose of this quantitative correlational study was to explore correlations between LOC and work performance, and the relationship between perceived stress and work performance. The theoretical framework of the study was based on social learning theory and the self-determination theory. There were 86 participants in the study. Pearson r correlational analysis was performed and revealed that there was not a significant relationship between perceived stress and work performance. The findings also revealed that there was no significant relationship between locus of control and work performance. The current study did not align with the existing literature which indicated that individuals who report higher levels of internal locus of control also tend to have higher levels of work performance. The results provided information that could improve organizational performance and employee satisfaction.
