Abstract
A survey of sales employees assessed career motives. Results indicate the COVID-19 pandemic has had a greater impact on motives for women than men. Job-related fears also have a stronger relationship to certain motives since the pandemic started. Implications for theories of motivation and recommendations for sales managers are discussed.
