Abstract

The research was executed to find out that customers' dissatisfaction level caused from service failure could be increased or decreased by personal value attitude for a event. With the empirical study the research found fate or destiny oriented individuals are more likely to forgive for the service failures than face value oriented ones. The findings will be helpful to increase customers satisfaction levels after customers experienced service failures if a service firm can manage individuals' personal values.

서비스 실패는 서비스 상품의 본질적인 특성 때문에 불가피하게 일어나게 마련이다. 서비스 기업들은 고객의 불만족을 초래하는 서비스 실패를 관리하기 위하여 서비스회복의 다각적인 노력을 하고 있다. 본 연구는 고객 개개인이 갖고 있는 가치 성향에 따라서 서비스 실패를 허용하는 수준이 다를 것이라고 가정하고 연구를 진행하였다. 실증적 연구를 통하여 밝혀낸 결과는 서로 다른 개인들의 가치 성향이 서비스 실패에 대하여 용인하는 정도에 차이가 있으며 이로 인하여 불만족의 수준도 달라진다는 것이다. 따라서 고객 성향의 효과적인 파악은 고객만족의 수준을 높이거나 최소한 고객 불만족의 수준을 낮출 수 있을 것이다.
