臺灣之組織領導研究：從客位到主位之研究途徑

Organizational Leadership Research in Taiwan: From Etic to Emic

正如同組織領導研究在西方一向受到高度的重視，過去二十多年來台灣學術期刊有關組織領導議題之研究累計已有1000篇以上，研究對象則涵蓋了企業、學校、醫院、運動團隊、以及政府與軍事單位等各類型組織。表面上看來，此一現象展現了台灣領導研究之蓬勃發展，研究者對於西方許多領導議題之引進與探討均是不遺餘力；然而若從深層意義來解讀，亦似乎暗示著台灣領導研究多年來均以複製西方研究為大宗，對於西方領導理論之驗證始終保持著亦步亦趨的步伐；這個現象一直要到近年來本土化研究開展後才逐漸有所改觀。本文的目的便在於針對台灣近三十年之組織領導研究進行回顧與評論，以勾勒出台灣組織領導研究之發展軌跡，並探討後續領導研究之重要議題與發展方向。

Parallel to the research emphasis on organizational leadership in the West, academic journals of Taiwan have also published more than one thousand research papers on this issue in the past twenty years. These studies involved subjects from various organizations, such as business corporations, schools, hospitals, athletic teams, government and military units. The booming of leadership research in Taiwan and the effort of researchers to import and investigate leadership issues from the West are evident. However, on the other hand, these studies might have frameworks and hypotheses adapted from the Western research rather constructed from emic perspective. The scene is gradually changing since researchers in Taiwan started conducting indigenous research. This paper is aimed to review and comment on organizational leadership research in Taiwan over the past thirty years to describe the development paths, discuss important issues, and suggest possible directions for future researches.
