Abstract The primary objective of this article is to integrate concepts from traditional leadership theory with the existing knowledge of channel behavior, with the purpose of moving toward a contingency theory of channel leadership. A justification for the relevance of traditional leadership theories to the marketing channel is presented. The marketing channel is viewed as a “superorganization” consisting of interdependent members with characteristics such as hierarchical structure and integration through subordination. The path-goal contingency leadership theory is then described in a marketing channel context. Research propositions focus on the relative effectiveness of various leadership styles used by the channel leaders boundary personnel.

This manuscript suggests that the marketing of accounting services may undergo radical change very soon in light of the AlCPAFTC agreement. The implications of the consent agreement are explored through the presentation of a hypothetical debate between a marketer and a CPA, with questions posed to the debaters by an intermediary. The CPA tends to respond conservativdy to the idea of making strategic changes to take advantage of the agreement; conversely, the marketer focuses on pointing out the potential opportunities which would be available to CPAs who wish to become more competitive. The six broad questions posed by the intermediary address the six basic matters included in the agreement. One question is devoted to each of the following issues: contingent fees, commissions, referral fees, solicitation, advertising, and trade names. After the debate, the CPA is exhorted to study the AICPA-FTC agreement and to consider its impact on the planning of both short- and long-range marketing strategies.
