Investigations into the motivations effected on salesperson performance of various compensation scheme showed the indirect but important interaction between personality factors and the structural characteristics of the job.

Article Abstract:
Male-dominant Western managers and salespersons have benefited from the implementation of market orientation and a study was undertaken of female service employees in Thailand to establish whether such benefit could be rendered across culture and gender. It was observed that market orientation did not have a positive impact on job satisfaction of the Thai female employees and customer orientation and interfunctional coordination fared only slightly better.
