Principal's Motivational Skills and Work Environment as Predictors of Performance of Teachers

Education

This study utilized a quantitative-descriptive correlational research design to investigate the relationship between the impact of workplace factors, including the principal's motivational skills and the overall work environment, on teaching performance in the New Bataan District, Davao de Oro. The respondents were 140 teachers from four public secondary schools in the district. Data was gathered using an adapted questionnaire that assessed the teachers' perceptions of the principal's motivational skills and the work environment, which included factors related to the school, teachers, students, and parents. The teachers' teaching performance was based on the results of the Results-based Performance Management System (RPMS) conducted by the principals. The study found that the teachers perceived the principal's motivational skills and the overall work environment to be "very good". The document does not explicitly state whether a significant correlation was found between the principal's motivational skills and teaching performance. The findings suggest that creating a positive school and student environment may contribute to enhancing teachers' performance in the classroom. The study provides insights for school administrators and policymakers on key factors to focus on to support and improve teacher effectiveness.
