The Study of Master's Thesis Instruction Behavior: Leadership Theory Perspective

師徒關係為資深者與資淺者的一種關係，藉此師父可以提供徒弟在專業知識上、生活上以及心理上等各方面的協助。在職場上，許多企業運用師徒功能讓新進人員快速社會化，學習專業的技能。然而，師徒功能不但在職場中被廣為運用，在學校裡也受到相當的重視。在學校中，師徒關係也是人際關係中重要的一環，特別是指導教授與研究生之間的師徒關係。因此，本研究探討指導教授與研究生之間師徒關係的形成與互動情形，並進一步瞭解指導教授的領導類型。過去有關師徒關係與領導理論的研究，多是以量化研究為取向，且多數是以企業為對象的研究，探討於學術界的研究相對較少，因此，本研究以質性訪談方式進行研究，研究對象為20位商管研究所之指導教授。在20位指導教授中，其中有3位女性指導教授;最高學歷以企管博士佔多數，有11位:國立大學任教與私立大學任教之受訪教授比率為1比3；在指導研究生的過程中，曾任或現任行政職的指導教授有10位，與未曾擔任行政職的指導教授人數相同。經過分析後，歸納出下列二大點研究結論（1）擔任行政職務之指導教授，其領導類型偏向交易型領導的消極的例外管理（2）教練型領導的指導教授較重視個人成長歷程的發展，同時給予持續的啟發引導。
