Answer to Question 1

Boundary spanners face three main sources of conflict: person/role conflicts, organization/client conflicts, and inter-client conflicts. With person/role conflicts, there is a bad fit between an individual's self-perception and the specific role the person must play in an organization. A more salient conflict for most front-line workers is the conflict between their two bosses  the organization and the client. This organization/client conflicts arises when a customer requests services that violate the rules of the organization. Inter-client conflicts arise because of the number of clients who influence one another's experience. This occurs most often when the service worker is serving multiple clients at the same time.
