Validation Strategy

The purpose of the present study was to test whether or not a biodata inventorycould be used to measure service orientation within global entrepreneurial organizationsin Western and Central Europe. A concurrent validation strategy wasconducted consistent with the methodology previously presented by Schoenfeldt(1999). Within the samples of 403 and 295 non-American employees, the serviceorientation ratings were highly correlated with four scales: "Extroversion,""Openness to experience, " "Conscientiousness, " and "Agreeableness" and notsignificantly correlated with "Emotional Stability. " The findings suggest that fororganizational employee development and selection, service orientation may beeffectively measured by an instrument such as this one and therefore potentiallyimprove customer service management systems.

Customer Service Management

The so-called ‘golden age’ of the Keynesian State was turbulently interrupted by a series of economic shocks in the 1970s. Traditional administrative hierarchies were regarded as too inflexible to adapt to the dynamic political and economic forces unleashed in the global age. Emphasizing private sector values such as timeliness, responsiveness, and cost savings, a new kind of managerialism—New Public Management (NPM)—began to take root in some of the world’s leading public bureaucracies. ‘The New Public Management goes global’ explains that, today, the NPM’s emphasis on customer service, management by objectives, and quantitative-based performance and accountability standards is evident at all levels of governance. But is there an alternative?

Perceived Impact

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine the perceived impact of outsourcing on customer service management.Design/methodology/approachThe examination was conducted via a survey on 124 companies in Malaysia. Using the framework from Elmuti, factors manifesting customer service management were regressed on the key factors manifesting successful outsourcing. Hence a model was contrived. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to estimate the model.FindingsThe model was able to provide predictive implications on customer service management, given the activities of key factors manifesting successful outsourcing. In other words to improve customer service management, companies could control their outsourcing activities.Originality/valueThis paper offers an approach to measure the effects of multiple independent variables on multiple dependent variables. Using SEM, multivariate analyses were mathematically represented in a single equation. In this equation, companies could holistically compose strategies to optimise their management in customer service.
