經濟全球化進程越來越快，電子零組件通路產業發展沒有國界，本土與國外廠商競相卡位，業界正處於群雄爭食、百家爭鳴的戰國時代，企業若能有效找出其員工在工作上所重視的要點，並輔以適當的管理機制，將能有效率地運用組織資源，特別是對於需要有產業知識延續性的電子零組件產業從業員工，增進調整主管的領導風格與瞭解員工的工作動機進而提高留任意願，將對於企業的競爭力有正面意義。因此本研究探討領導風格、工作動機與留任意願之間的關係，經由間接文獻之引用及邏輯之推理，發放問卷並加以分析，以期了解三者間之關聯。
本研究透過發放問卷的方式，請研究者目前服務企業之員工協助填寫。問卷總共發放了280份，請員工們對於主管領導風格、員工工作動機與留任意願之看法，進行填答。問卷共計收回214份，去除無效問卷沒填寫完成者8份，有效問卷共計為206份，回收率為73.57%。
本研究結果發現，領導風格與工作動機具有正相關；工作動機與留任意願具有正相關；領導風格與留任意願具有正相關；而工作動機在領導風格與留任意願之間存在部分中介效果。根據研究結果，本研究提出相關建議供電子零組件通路商的管理者及後續研究者參考。
In a globalized economy, electronic components distributors face competition from both local and foreign competitors. Companies in the industry need to retain talents to better utilize organizational resources and pass down know-how so as to increase competitiveness. It is therefore vital for the management level to understand their employees’ work motivation and adjust its leadership style accordingly. This study aims to
understand the relations among leadership style, work motivation, and employee retention through a survey.
Two hundred and eighty questionnaires were distributed to the employees of the researcher’s company. Two hundred and fourteen questionnaires were returned, and among them, 206 were valid (valid return rate was 73.57%).
The results showed that leadership style was positively correlated to work motivation; work motivation was positively correlated to employee retention; leadership was positively correlated to employee retention; and there was a partly mediating effect of work motivation between leadership style and employee retention. This study provided suggestions for the management level of electronic components distributors and follow-
up studies.
