최근 리더십 연구에서 변혁적 리더의 진정성 여부가 이슈가 되고 있다. 변혁적 리더가 보이는 진정성 여부가 부하들의 태도와 성과에 큰 영향을 미치기 때문이다. 이에 본 연구의 목적은 변혁적 리더십이 신뢰와 조직헌신을 통해 팀성과에 미치는 영향과 구성원이 지각하는 진정성의 조절효과를 융합적으로 검증하는데 있다. 부산지역의 특1급 호텔 팀원 232명을 대상으로 실증 분석을 한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 변혁적 리더십 지각은 신뢰와 조직헌신에 정(+)적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 리더에 대한 신뢰는 팀성과에 정(+)적으로 유의한 영향을 미치나, 조직헌신은 팀성과에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 리더의 진정성은 변혁적 리더십과 신뢰 간에 유의한 조절효과를 미치나 변혁적 리더십과 조직헌신 간에 유의한 조절효과를 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구의 결과는 변혁적 리더의 진정성이 팀원의 태도에 영향을 미치는 조절요인으로 검증함으로써 향후 리더십 연구에서 진정성이 조절효과로서의 중요성을 시사한다.

This study aimed to identify sub-dimensions of the authenticity and fictionality of a brand story and analyze the effects of authenticity and fictionality on customer-based brand equity. Data were obtained from a group of 213 males and females in their 20s and 30s living in Korea using an online survey institute. Results showed that the authenticity and fictionality of a brand story are composed of reality, excitement, exaggeration, fictional symbolism, influence, sincerity, relativeness, mysteriousness, and unreality. Of these, sincerity, excitement, reality, influence, and mysteriousness had significant effects on brand imagery; sincerity particularly exerted a relatively more substantial influence on brand imagery. Also, influence, mysteriousness, excitement, and relativeness impacted performance positively, and exaggeration impacted performance negatively. This indicated that a well-constructed brand story with authenticity and fictionality had a positive impact on the brand image. Excitement, mysteriousness, reality, relativeness, sincerity, and influence of a brand story had significant effects on brand judgement. In contrast, only excitement and influence positively impacted brand feelings, and unreality had a negative impact on feelings. The exciting and influential brand story impacted brand attitude. Also, brand image and attitude positively impacted sharing and purchase intention, while brand performance did not affect recommendation intention. These findings contribute to identifying a brand story's attributes, authenticity, and fictionality and provide insights for marketers on creating brand stories to increase brand image and attitude and to build customer-based brand equity.

본 연구에서는 진정성 지각 관련 변수들을 종합적으로 제시하고, 이러한 브랜드 속성들이 실제로 진정성 지각에 영향을 미치는지 검증하였다. 제품 유형에 따라서 어떠한 속성들이 소비자의 진정성 지각 형성에 더욱 중요한 역할을 하는지도 살펴보고, 진정성 지각이 브랜드 성과와 연결되는지, 즉 소비자의 브랜드 태도에 직접적인 영향을 미치는지 분석하였고, 브랜드 속성들이 진정성 지각을 형성한 후에 태도에 영향을 미치는 것인지도 추가적으로 확인하였다. 연구 결과, 진정성 지각에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 브랜드 속성은 우수성, 자연성, 유행 반영성, 일관성, 지역 관련성, 윤리성의 여섯 가지 차원으로 구성되었으며, 자연성은 사적제품에서, 유행 반영성이나 지역관련성은 공적제품에서 더욱 진정성 지각을 높이는 것으로 분석되었다. 진정성 지각은 브랜드 태도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났는데, 매개회귀분석 결과 진정성 지각은 우수성과 유행 반영성 차원에서 부분매개 역할을, 자연성, 일관성, 윤리성 차원에서 완전매개 역할을 함을 파악하였다.

소비자들이 브랜드를 진정성이 있는 것으로 느낄수록 브랜드 이미지는 좋아지고 구매의도도 높아지므로, 기업들은 적극적으로 브랜드 진정성을 구축하고자 한다. 한편, 성능이나 내구성, 소재 등의 다양한 요소들을 고려하여 소비자가 종합적으로 지각하는 제품의 품질은 브랜드 진정성에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 마케팅 관점에서 품질과 브랜드 진정성에 대한 연구모형을 구축하고 실증분석함으로써 유용한 시사점을 제시하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 품질과 브랜드 진정성을 이론적으로 정의하고, 이들 간의 관계를 규명한 후, 궁극적으로 이들 개념이 브랜드 이미지에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 구체적으로는 총 286명의 소비자를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 제품의 품질과 브랜드의 진정성 및 브랜드 이미지를 알아보았고, 조사대상 제품은 S전자의 최신 휴대폰인 S20으로 하였다. 실증분석 결과, 품질이 브랜드 진정성에 통계적으로 유의한 정의 영향을 미치기는 하지만, 그 정도는 예상보다 크지 않았다. 또한 품질은 브랜드 이미지에도 통계적으로 유의한 정의 영향을 미치고 있었으며 그 정도도 컸지만, 브랜드 진정성을 함께 고려한 경우에는 품질에 비해서 브랜드 진정성의 회귀계수가 더 컸다. 이는 브랜드 진정성의 부분매개효과를 의미한다. 따라서 기업이 브랜드 이미지 및 구매의도를 제고하기 위해서는 품질에만 초점을 두는 것보다는 본 연구에서 제시하고 있는 구성요소들을 감안하여 브랜드 진정성을 함께 구축하는 전략이 효과적일 것이다. 본 연구는 마케팅 관점에서 소비자가 품질을 통하여 지각하는 브랜드 진정성과 브랜드 이미지 간의 관계를 실증적으로 살펴봄으로써 유용한 이론적, 실무적 시사점들을 제안하고 있다.
