This study attempted to investigate how the transformational leadership perceived by flowers of telemarketing organizations. In particular, this study explored the moderating effect of followership in the relationship between transformational leadership and organizational performance. To verify the research model, 321 surveys collected from 10 domestic call centers were analyzed. Reliability, correlation, factor analysis, and hierarchical regression analysis were performed, and as a result of the analysis, it was found that the transformational leadership in the telemarketing organizations had a positive effect on organizational performance. In addition, it was confirmed that goal consistency, proactive participation, critical thinking, and team spirit, which are the four sub-variables of followership, all have a positive (+) effect on organizational performance, and both goal consistency and proactive participation moderate the relationship between transformational leadership and organizational performance. Considering the special working environment of telemarketing organizations, the results of this study suggest the need for a corporate educational role to increase transformational leadership and followership and the need to build environments by setting up an atmosphere for members to exercise follow-up, and opening up communication structures for members to follow.

최근 기업들의 고객만족은 단발성 고객 유치를 넘어 고객의 기업 충성도를 높이기 위한 '고객 감동 서비스'를 강조하고 있다. 이러한 모토 하에서 많은 기업들은 직원들의 친절 매뉴얼을 만들어 CS(Consumer Service) 근로자들의 서비스 교육을 강화하고 있다. 고객센터에 근무하는 근로자 및 텔레마케터 등으로 대표되는 서비스직 종사자들은 무조건적인 고객을 향한 친절은 물론이고 고객만족을 이끌어 내고 고객을 유치하기 위해 기업들은 근로자들에게 강제적 감정 표현을 강요하기에 이르렀다. 예를 들어 근로자가 실제 느끼는 감정과는 별도로 그 어떤 '진상 고객'을 만나더라도 웃음을 잃지 않고 화를 내지 않기를 교육받는 것이다. 이를 통한 감정노동과 감정지능에 대한 연구가 최근 들어 활발해 지고 있다. 사실 감정노동이라는 것 자체는 서비스산업이 발달하면서 나타나는 불가피한 현상이기는 하다. 서비스산업 노동 자체가 고객과의 대면 상황을 전제로 하기 때문이다. 그러나 자연스러운 수준에서 일어나는 감정 관리, 다분히 인간적인 수준에서의 표정 관리 이상을 서비스산업 노동자들이 강요받고 있다는 것이다. 또한 최근에는 조직구성원의 감성이 조직생활에 영향을 미침을 인식하게 되면서 조직 내의 감성에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으며 사람, 돈, 정보 등의 물리적 자원 등과 같은 조직을 구성하는 핵심요소와 함께 지식과 감성과 같은 비가시적인 자원 또한 조직을 구성하는 중요한 요소라는 주장이 제기되었다. 본 연구에서는 서비스 산업의 주된 감정노동과 조직 내에서 중요한 요소로 자리를 잡아가고 있는 감성지능에 대한 개념과 정의를 제시하고 감정노동과 감성지능에 대한 차이점 및 직무스트레스에 주는 영향에 대하여 연구하고자 한다.

우리나라의 서비스 직업에 대한 고용비중이 점차 높아지고 있는 동시에 여성의 경제활동도 함께 증가하는 추세를 보여주고 있다. 또한 현재 경영의 환경에 있어서의 소비자들은 기업과의 직접적인 대면과 함께 우량의 서비스 품질을 요구하는 경영환경의 시대에 있다. 각 기업은 차별화 전략으로서 최상의 서비스 제공을 통한 고객 만족 극대화에 초점을 맞추고 있으며 특히, 서비스 기업에서 추구하는 고객만족 또는 서비스 만족도가 기업의 경쟁우의를 결정짓고 기업의 이미지를 표현하는 중요한 요인으로 여겨지고 있다. 이러한 고객만족을 중시하는 기업과 조직의 목표에 의해 대부분의 고객센터의 여성 근로자들은 조직이 요구하는 감정표현의 규범에 의해 자신의 감정이나 느낌을 고객에게 연출하도록 강요받고 있다. 근로자의 기분과 감정과는 관계없이 고객에게 미소와 친절을 보내야 하는 고객센터 근로자들은 감정노동을 하고 있는 것이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 서비스 산업 중에서도 여성인력에 대한 의존도가 높은 고객만족센터(텔레마케터 or 전화상담원)에 근무하는 여성근로자를 중심으로 감정적 부조화에 따른 감정노동이 직무스트레스에 미치는 영향에 대하여 알아보고 연구 결과를 통해 고객센터의 여성근로자들의 인적자원관리 차원에서 감정노동에 대한 인지와 직무스트레스 조절을 통한 관리에 시사점을 제안하고자 한다.
