In addition this department is dealing often with a large number of employees and very high budgets. Consequently, an effective sales management plays a very important role for almost every company. The purpose of this assignment is to analyse the most important required skills of managers in sales, and the influence of transactional and transformational leadership in sales management. This may help companies to find qualified personnel for this position and to improve their leadership development programs.
