This study presents a conceptual framework for the growth process as a manager based on data gathered from the sales experiences and careers of fashion brand managers. The study participants were seven managers with over 15 years of sales experience in a women's clothing brand in Gwangju. Data were collected through in-depth interviews from January 2018 to September 2018 and analyzed using open coding, axis coding, and selective coding according to Strauss and Corbin's grounded theory method. The study results are as follows. First, this study found six categories and 17 sub-categories based on the shop manager's sales experiences and careers. Second, we found the central job category as well as categories with causality, interaction, moderating and outcome relationships. Third, we developed a paradigm model that links the main phenomena, causal conditions, contextual conditions, intervening conditions, action/interaction strategies, and consequence categories. Fourth, the process of growing as a fashion brand manager was described by an integrated story.

전문직 종사자는 많은 정보활동을 수행한다. 특히 끊임없이 변하는 소비자의 욕구에 부응하는 새로운 패션상품을 기획해야하는 머쳔다이저는 의상디자인 능력과 상품기획 능력을 동시에 겸비하고 있어야 한다. 이 두가지 다른 내용을 동시에 흡수할 수 있는 전공교육 프로그램이 마련되어 있지 못한게 국내실정이다. 그리하여 패션 머쳔다이저는 업무수행에서 필요로 하는 정보 및 지식을 끊임없이 수집, 분석하려는 노력을 취해야한다. 이들이 주로 탐색해나가는 정보의 성격이 업무수행성과에 영향을 미치는 가를 판단코자함이 본 연구의 관심주제이다. 정보활동에 관한 기존연구는 개인의 특성, 경험 등이 정보활동 형태에 영향을 주는 요인이리고 지적한다. 본 연구에서는 머쳔다이저가 성장해온 경력외의 분야에 더 많은 정보를 탐색하게되면 보다 합리적인 머쳔다이징 의사결정을 내릴 수 있게되고 또 한 이들의 업무수행 성과도 그에 따라 차이가 날 것이라는 주요가설을 설정하였다. 아울러 이의 검정을 위해 설문조사를 수행하였다. 국내 주요백화점의 특정 지점에 매장을 갖고 있는 의류제조업체의 머쳔다이저를 대상으로 조사한 결과, 본 연구의 주요가설은 채택되었다. 이러한 연구결과는 국내 의류업체가 머쳔다이저를 위한 정보활동 프로그램을 마련할 때 활용될 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구가 패션분야를 떠난 일반적 정보활동 분야에 기여한 점은, 업무를 효과적으로 수행하는데 부족하다고 여겨지는 분야의 정보를 많이 획득해나갈수록 그 활용에 따른 효과가 크게 나타난다는 점이다. 이는 정보활동에 대한 계획수립시 유용하게 적용될 수 있을 것이다.

This study investigated the relationship between fashion behavior, impression management behavior, and career success. A conceptual model and hypotheses were established based on theoretical linkages between the constructs. Thereafter, empirical data were collected using a set of questionnaires. For this reason, the sample was taken from 720 office workers' who worked at 14's Korea Enterprise, 697 of which was used for an empirical analysis (sample: men over 30 years of age and more than three years continuous service). This study conducted an exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis for the validity test. Cronbach's alpha test is used for the reliability test. Moreover, PLS structural equation modeling (SEM) was employed to test hypothesized relationships in the conceptual model (SPSS 20.0 window/Smart PLS 3.0). This study shows that the proposed model is reasonably fit to the actual data. The following results were obtained from the analyses. First, fashion behavior and impression management behavior is positively related to career success. The result shows that economics of the fashion behaviors sub-types were statistically more significant to influence career success. The self-focused of the impression management behavior sub-types were more than statistically significant to influence career success. This finding has great implications to understand self-management behavior and the career success of male office workers.

본 연구는 어업에 종사하는 어업인을 대상으로 작업복 착용실태와 불편사항 및 문제점, 작업복에서 요구되는 기능 등을 알아보고 이를 통해 어업에 적합하고 작업 효율성을 높일 수 있는 기능적 작업복 개발에 필요한 요구사항을 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구는 전남지역의 어업인 124명을 대상으로 하였다. 분석은 SPSS 26.0 프로그램을 활용하였다. 본 연구에 참여한 어업인은 50대가 가장 많았고 남성이 약 85%이며, 근무경력은 10년 이상 20년 미만이 많았다. 작업복은 상하 분리형을 좋아하며, 방수성을 가장 중요하게 생각하였다. 착용 작업복에 대한 만족도는 땀투과성을 제외한 모든 항목에서 보통으로 평가되었다. 선호하는 색상은 무채색이 가장 많고 상하 분리형 스타일과 지퍼 여밈을 좋아하였다. 연령에 따라 작업복 구입 시 고려사항에 유의미한 차이를 나타내 30대 이하와 40대는 활동성을, 50대는 내구성을, 60대는 방수성을 가장 중요하게 생각하였다. 연령에 따른 작업복 만족도는 활동성, 압박감, 탈착성, 맞음새, 두께감, 기능성, 보온성, 옷의 무게감 등에서 유의미한 차이를 나타냈다. 본 연구를 바탕으로 하여 실용적이고 기능적인 어업용 작업복 개발이 이루어져야 할 것으로 생각된다.
