HH the 14 Dalai Lama answers questions after a Dzogchen teaching in  
San Jose, CA in 1989:

Question: Do sentient beings have free will?

HHDL: According to Buddhism, individuals are masters of their own  
destiny. And all living beings are believed to possess the nature of  
the Primordial Buddha Samantabhadra [the "All Good"], the potential  
or seed of enlightenment, within them. So our future is in our own  
hands. What greater free will do we need?
