Abstract

Innovation is increasingly valued by various countries. In China, innovation driven development is widely recognized. Innovation cannot do without talent, so graduate education has received attention and importance from the whole society. The country has also introduced relevant policies to support the development of graduate education, such as expanding the number of graduate students and improving the quality of training. Mentors should play a positive role in improving the quality of graduate education. In China, scholars have studied various guidance styles of mentors, and transformational mentors have been recognized by some scholars for their positive impact on postgraduate innovation. This article conducts an empirical study from the perspective of leadership on whether transformational mentors can affect postgraduate innovation performance and their influencing mechanisms. Through research, it has been found that various traits of transformational mentor leadership have a positive impact on postgraduate innovation performance, and the mediating effect of team atmosphere and innovation self-efficacy has also been verified.
