Abstract

This research examines the relationship among job satisfaction, task significance and values through a survey of salesmen. Data obtained from salesmen across different industries were analyzed using correlations and regression analysis. Results indicates that task significance and consistency of organizational and salesmen’ values positively affect job satisfaction while supervision was found to negatively impact on salesmen job satisfaction; in addition, variables that are less under management control covaries significantly with job satisfaction. It seems that securing a fit and strengthening the organization-salesmen value consistency and expanding the ‘external roles’ of salesmen in a job enrichment programme holds profit in the long run.
