Abstract

This article examines the issue of how multidimensional the buying job actually is. The results of a study of firms in five industries is reported and discussed in light of the need for job enrichment. The findings indicate that the buying job is less diversified than might have been assumed—and that it is entirely possible that this may have a detrimental impact on overall buyer performance.
