Abstract

This study explores which organizational capital is important for the customer service center and how the organizational capital is linked to organization's performance through dynamic capability. In this study, total of 389 employees in customer service centers were surveyed for the analysis. The results indicate that relational capital and organizational culture were positively linked with collaborative behavior, capital share, and capital transformation. Also, structural capital was a significant factor in collaborative behavior. Organizational performance was positively affecting collaborative behavior and capital share. This study provides a practical guideline on how to manage organizational capital and supplement shortcomings for managers and counsellors at the customer service centers. Furthermore, the implications for the reinforcement and development of organizational capital were suggested in building a customer service center as a strategic and fundamental part of the company.

본 연구에서는 고객센터를 대상으로 고객센터의 중요한 조직자본이 무엇인가 밝혀내고, 조직자본이 고객센터의 어떠한 동적역량을 통하여 조직성과로 연결되는가에 대한 관계를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 고객센터 구성원을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 389개의 데이터를 실증 분석에 이용하였다. 분석결과, 조직자본 중 관계적 자본과 조직문화가 조직의 동적역량 구성요소(구성원 협력, 자본공유, 자본변환) 모두에 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 구조적 자본은 동적역량 구성요소 중 협력에 유의한 영향관계가 있음을 밝혔다. 조직성과는 조직 동적역량 중 구성원의 협력과 조직자본공유가 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 고객센터의 관리자들과 상담사원들에게 고객센터에서 과연 어떠한 조직자본이 보다 중점적으로 관리되고 부족한 부분이 보완되어야 하는가에 대한 실용적인 가이드라인을 제시하고, 앞으로 고객센터가 기업의 전략적이며 핵심적인 조직으로 발전하기 위해서는 어떠한 조직자본과 동적역량을 강화, 발전시켜야 하는가에 대한 시사점을 제공하였다.
