The Salesman

23.

You had hoped that your sales team would forget their complaints within a week or so. Unfortunately, they do not. Within ten days the union threatens to bring the whole team out on strike unless they are paid at special rates for time spent outside the office (sales visits, meetings, etc.)

You think these demands are unreasonable but what can you do?

 
 

A Give Richard Morgan the sack. He is obviously the real cause of discontent, not the meetings or outside selling.

  B Get rid of Richard Morgan by promoting him out of the team. He is a good salesman but a trouble-maker.

C Give up sending any of your team to departmental meetings or on sales visits. They are the most junior section of the department and the opportunity was more for their satisfaction than for any real contribution they made.
