Therefore, the power of competition comes from improving the motor salespeople quality. Nevertheless, improving the salespeople quality must rely on educational training. This article emphasized the training for motor salespeople in Taiwan and investigated the relationship between the work environment (organizational support, supervisor support & peer support) and role stress (role conflict & role ambiguity) with the motivation to transfer of what they learned from training programs back to their jobs. The role stress was then the interference variable between the work environment and the motivation to transfer of training. This research adopted quantitative method. The author mailed out 700 questionnaires to motor salespeople in Taiwan; 430 completed questionnaires were returned, 150 invalid questionnaires were excluded, and 280 questionnaires were usable in this study, representing a response rate of 40 percent.
