台灣壽險業發展蓬勃、競爭激烈,業者想要培養長期忠誠之顧客卻不易,因此,如何滿足顧客之需求,以提昇顧客滿意度,與其建立長久的顧客關係,則為台灣壽險業應努力的重點。由於壽險業為高度服務接觸的產業,而壽險業務員仍為目前提供壽險服務之主力。因此,壽險服務人員屬性的好壞即會影響到顧客關係品質,而哪些服務人員屬性才是顧客真正重視的部份?哪些才會真正影響到顧客關係品質?過去並未有實證研究加以分析。故本研究之目的即在探討壽險服務人員屬性與顧客關係品質間的關係,並探討顧客性別之干擾效果。 本研究以台灣地區投保人壽保險之保戶為研究對象,採立意抽樣的方式,並採結構式問卷調查方式來進行研究。共計發出問卷300份,剔除無效問卷24份後,實際有效問卷276份,有效問卷回收率達92%。本研究結果發現: (1)服務人員屬性對關係品質具有顯著正向影響。 (2)服務人員屬性之各子構面 (專業知識、經驗與外表) 對關係品質之各子構面 (信任、滿意度與承諾) 具有顯著正向影響,而專業知識對關係品質之影響最大,其次為外表,最後才為經驗。 (3)顧客性別對服務人員屬性與關係品質間之關係具有顯著的干擾效果,而女性顧客具有較強的干擾效果。 本研究最後依據實證研究之結果,提出若干管理實務之建議與後續之研究方向,期能供未來保險公司在人力資源管理及顧客關係管理之參考。
