Faculty Turnover through the Lens of Administrators and Faculty in Private Tertiary Institutions: A Multiple Perspective Study

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This phenomenological study examined the diverse perspectives of faculty members and administrators in private tertiary institutions regarding faculty turnover. The study involved six faculty members and six administrators from private tertiary institutions in Tagum City, Davao del Norte selected through purposive sampling. Thematic analysis was employed to analyze participant responses. Administrators' experiences with faculty turnover include: financial and time constraints associated with hiring and training replacements and obstacles in organizational productivity. Meanwhile, faculty members' experiences encompass difficulty adjusting to additional workload and assigned tasks, disruptions in both student learning experiences and institutional activities, insufficient orientation and turnover of tasks by departing faculty, and the benefit of receiving additional compensation. The findings highlight a shared understanding between administrators and faculty regarding the complexities of faculty turnover and underscore the need for effective retention strategies to ensure institutional stability and success.
