Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 人力資源管理研究所 === 98 ===   There are many companies implement mentoring these days, it shows that more and more leaders of companies agree that mentoring is beneficial for company, such as an increased organizational commitment and job performance of employees. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship of mentoring, organizational commitment and job performance in high-tech industry. In addition, we also examined the intermediate effect of organizational commitment on the relation of mentoring functions and job performance.   This study collected empirical data from employees of high-tech industry. A total of 299 completed questionnaires were returned. Results of statistical analyses provided four important conclusions as follows: 1. The mentoring function is positively related to organizational commitment. The more mentoring functions that protégé perceived, the higher degree of organizational commitment he/she acquired. 2. The mentoring function is positively related to job performance. The more mentoring function that protégé perceived, the higher degree of job performance he/she achieved. 3. The organizational commitment is positively related to job performance. The more organizational commitment that protégé perceived, the higher degree of job performance he/she achieved. 4. Organizational commitment as an intervening variable, partially mediates the relationship between perceived mentoring functions and protégé’s job performance.   The study provided some suggestions and recommendations. Business should establish mentorship in the organization to provide mentoring function, and then help their employee to have more organizational commitment and more job performance. Also, researchers may investigate more industries and conduct a matching questionnaire from mentor and protégé in the future.
