2. Theoretical background and hypotheses
Service organizations depend on their ability not only to develop new services to gain competitive advantages but also to prudently implement these service innovations into daily practice (Chimhanzi & Morgan, 2005; Somech & Drach-Zahavy, 2013). Service innovation is commonly defined as “the introduction of novel ideas that focus on services that provide new ways of delivering a benefit, new service concepts, or new service business models through continuous operational improvement, technology, investment in employee performance, or management of the customer experience” (Enz, 2012, p. 187). As previously outlined by various researchers, FLEs are pivotal when firms introduce new services (e.g., Bettencourt & Gwinner, 1996; Bowen & Lawler, 1995). In particular, previous research has acknowledged the important role played by customer contact personnel in building customer relationships (e.g., Hennig-Thurau, Groth, Paul, & Gremler, 2006; Menguc, Auh, Fisher, & Haddad, 2013) and transforming management visions into widely used practices, such as by means of an esthetic appearance that reflects the corporate image (e.g., Pounders, Babin, & Close, 2015). Similarly, FLEs become the ambassadors of their organization when new services are introduced to customers (Lohndorf € & Diamantopoulos, 2014; Melton & Hartline, 2010). Whether or not customers will accept the new service offerings is highly dependent on employees' motivation to support or impede their company's strategic initiatives by either recommending new services to or hiding them from customers (Cadwallader et al., 2010; Porter & Smith, 2005).
