子帥以「正」，孰敢不「正」：一所私立大學系主任正向學術領導之個案研究

A Case Study of Positive Academic Leadership of Department Chairs at a Private University

本研究以臺灣西部一所私立大學的三個學系為個案現場，由研究者以質性的半結構訪談方法，個別訪談15位立意取樣的該校系主任、教師、學生和行政助理，進而深入瞭解個案學校系主任正向學術領導的策略途徑與實踐成效。根據訪談資料分析的結果，系主任正向學術領導的策略途徑包括：「領導者審慎樂觀自信，展現高度抗壓」、「建立共好的希望願景，發揮團隊精神」與「營造組織的良性互動，提供激勵支持」；其次，系主任正向學術領導的實踐成效計有：「成員研究表現提升，教學輔導回饋優良」、「團體成員感情融洽，工作氛圍愉快」及「組織行政績效改善，學生流失趨緩」。根據研究發現，研究者提出若干啟示予相關實務與未來研究做參考。
