In a sales organization, managers should take extra caution when providing close supervision of the sales force because it: $$

Reduces both role conflict and role ambiguity

Requires the boundary$-$spanning salesperson to please both internal and external stakeholders

Helps reduce role ambiguity but will also increase role conflict

Improves sales force performance while using up a huge amount of the sales manager's time

Encourages linkage role inaccuracies while increasing motivation levels
