중국 태권도장 활성화를 위한 지도철학 연구

Abstract

Objective of the present study is to provide measures for activating studios through exploring pointers that may constitute a foundation for leadership philosophy of Taekwondo leaders in China with leaders and parents. For study method, qualitative research methods using semi-structured interviews along with literature survey were utilized. First, Chinese Taekwondo studios are represented as an economic and commercial place in conjunction with rapidly growing economic development according to a historic flow rather than as a place for pure education. Consequently, Chinese leaders should not incur a great loss by pursuing a small profit, requiring an effort for enhancement of leaders' qualifications as well as the quality of education. Secondly, while leaders' guidance contents and methods mostly account for competing techniques required in actual fights, the part considered most important in training is pointed out to be an etiquette. Thirdlymeasures for publicity methods, training management programs, communications with parents along with trainees and parents management are considered to be urgent issues according to cultural characteristics of China. Since such matters are certainly essential in methodological approaches for trainees absenteeism, studio closure and reopening, an effort should be made for image enhancement of Taekwondo studios by supplementing important contents such as leaders, programs and training facilities. Fourth, since Chinese leaders lack in contents for inducing joining by trainees, the approach should be divided into many areas such as internet advertisements, fliers, Taekwondo demonstrations, orally transmitted advertisements, blog marketing, etc. Fifthly, parents of Chinese trainees display a greater intimacy with their children's love and interset rather than technical parts in Taekwondo training,valuing leaders' character and personality very highly. For activation of Taekwondo in China, development of leaders, guidance methods and contents, training programs together with construction of a new paradigm for management are badly needed. Thus, activation of leasdership philosophy for Chinese Taekwondo leaders as well as Taekwondo studios may be achieved when they become leaders equipped with a leadership ability produced by positive experience as the most needed element, professional knowledge that can establish and apply it to guidance and correct values.
