本文摘要 師徒關係的建立致使徒弟從師父身上得到社會心理支持、職涯發展支持以及角色楷模等功能。而組織可以將師徒關係的建立作為一種工具,藉此傳承組織內部的知識與技術。 本研究驗證了師父的個人特質(人口統計變數、工作相關變數以及個人心理因素)、組織情境因素(工作上接觸或友誼發展的機會與組織獎酬系統)與師徒功能(社會心理、職涯發展和角色楷模)之間的關係。研究對象為四十五對不限產業類型的師徒組合。經由統計分析之後得到了以下結論: 一、 師父的上進心特質愈高,徒弟獲得的社會心理功能、職涯發展功能愈高。 二、 師父愈具有內控傾向,徒弟獲得的社會心理功能、職涯發展功能以及角色楷模愈高。 三、 組織獎酬系統愈獎勵資深員工協助資淺員工發展,徒弟獲得職涯發展功能愈高。 依此,組織為了建構有效的師徒關係,應該慎選具有上進心、內控傾向之員工擔任師父角色,同時建立獎勵扶助資淺員工之組織系統,以確保資人力資源之有效利用,優質師徒關係得以建立。
