Question 2

Effective Communication with Telecommuter Sue has worked from home for four years, taking phone orders for a national catalog retailer. Sue feels unappreciated for her efforts and detached from management and coworkers. In times past, Sue's performance had been very efficient, responsible, on-time, and reliable. Lately, however, her performance has faltered. Monitors listening in to her calls find she is not selling the new additional offers, as now is required. Using the theories discussed in the chapter as a basis for comment, how would you as Sue's supervisor motivate her to higher productivity and satisfaction?

Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

Even if you have not done this in the past, it is never too late to use positive stroking; tell Sue how much you appreciate her years of service and good work. Listen intently to her expression of frustration--ask specifically what troubles her about selling additional offers. By paying more attention to her needs, you may make her feel more appreciated. Empower her to be a better salesperson by explaining the rationale for the new offers and listening to her input about them. Including her in strategy development may make her more willing to sell.
