Answer to Question 1

Sue's supervisor can tell Sue how much he appreciates her years of service and good work. He can also listen intently to her while she is expressing her frustration and ask specifically what hinders her from selling additional products. By paying more attention to her needs, the supervisor may make her feel more appreciated. Moreover, the supervisor can empower her to be a better salesperson by explaining the rationale for the new offers and listening to her input about them. He can include her in strategy development to make her more willing to sell.
