Many companies have implemented the mentoring system these days. It has been suggested that the system is beneficial to companies, boosting employee job satisfication and being a good start for new employees. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationships among the perception of mentoring, organizational identification and leadership satisfication of proteges. In addition, we examined the moderating effects of matching demographics of mentor- proteges on the above relationships. The research sample includes a total of 66 proteges of a commercial bank in Taiwan. Results of statistical analyses are as follows: 1. The perceived mentoring functions, especially in the career and role function, exerted a positive impact on proteges’s organizational identification. The more perceived career and role functions that a protege perceived, the higher degree of organizational identification he/she possessed. 2. Matching educational level had a significant moderating effect on the relationship between perceived career function and protege’s organizational identification. That is, the mentor-protege pairs with the same level of education had a more positive relationship between perceived career function and organizational identification. 3. Matching educational level had a positive impact on protege’s leadership satisfication. Mentor-protege with the same level of education perceived higher satisfication with their mentor. The higher perceived mentoring function, the higher degree of organizational identification. The study proposes some suggestions and recommendations. Businesses should establish mentorship in the organizations to promote mentoring functions so that their employees may possess higher degree of organizational identification. Also, mentor-protege pairs are suggested to have a similar level of education.
