Branded service encounters, in which various aspects of frontline employees are strategically aligned with the firm's brand positioning, can be achieved along several dimensions such as employee appearance, manner, and personality. While previous research has mainly focused on behavioral traits of employees, this research examines the employee's physical appearance in association with the brand personality trait across two studies. Study 1 shows that salesperson look-brand personality congruence enhances brand affect by inducing positive affect. Specifically, a brand-congruent look of a salesperson increases positive affect among customers by confirming their prior expectations about what a salesperson of a certain brand should look like as a brand representative. Study 2 reveals that the positive impact of salesperson look-brand personality congruence on brand affect is significant only for customers with high social anxiety whereas this effect disappears for those with low social anxiety. These findings extend previous research on branded service encounters by showing why and when frontline employees' physical appearance shapes customers' affective responses toward the brand.

연구의 목적은 동일 조직에서 대면채널사원의 영업성과 차이의 이유와 인적네트워크 및 지식수준이 영업성과에 미치는 영향에 대해 살펴보고 회사가 대면채널조직을 어떻게 관리하고 양성해야 하는지 알아보고자 하였다. 연구문제로는 대면채널사원의 인적네트워크와 지식수준이 영업성과에 미치는 영향과 역량개발 태도의 조절효과를 분석했다. 그 결과 인적네트워크 및 지식수준은 영업성과에 정의 영향을 미치며 일에 대한 태도의 조절효과 측면에서 인적네트워크 조직화노력은 기각되었지만 유지에 관한 태도는 영업성과에 양(+)의 조절효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 분석결과, 대면채널사원의 지식수준과 인적네크워크 수준이 높을수록 영업성과가 좋아지는 결과를 보인 만큼 보험사의 경쟁력 강화를 위해 핵심 대면채널사원에 대한 교육과 인적네트워크 형성을 지원하여 그들이 고능률화 될 수 있도록 해야 함을 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구는 같은 조직 내에서 유사한 인프라 자원을 공유함에도 대면채널사원의 영업성과의 성과 차이가 왜 나는지 연구하였으며 향후 조직성과 향상을 연구하는데 참고자료가 되고자 하였다.
