The formation of a cross-selling initiative climate and its interplay with service climate

摘要

Purpose This study aims to explore the formation and consequences of a cross-selling initiative climate, as well as how a service climate, which provides an important boundary condition, affects both its formation and its ultimate impact on service-sales performance. This article identifies two important predictors of a cross-selling initiative climate: frontline employees' perceptions of supervisors' bottom-line mentality and their own sense of accountability.
