How Principals' Visionary Leadership Practice Reducing Indonesian Teachers' Turnover Intention?

Abstract

Leadership is vital to the survival and success of organizations, including schools. Therefore, this study focuses on investigating the effect of a school principal's visionary leadership (PVL) on school governance, reward system, and teacher turnover intention, as well as exploring the role of school governance and reward system in mediating the influence of PVL on teacher turnover intention. A questionnaire on a Likert scale was used to collect research data from 439 honorary teachers from private schools in Indonesia. They were selected by accidental sampling based on their willingness and willingness to fill out the questionnaire entirely without receiving any compensation. Descriptive and correlational analyzes were used to support path analysis. The results show that PVL has a significant effect on school governance, reward system, and teacher turnover intention. In addition, school governance and reward systems have also been shown to mediate the effect of PVL on teacher turnover intention. Thus, a new empirical model was found regarding the effect of PVL on turnover intention mediated by school governance and reward system. This finding can be used as exciting discussion material among researchers and practitioners to reduce turnover intention among teachers through PVL with school governance and reward system mediation mechanisms.
