    The Predictive Influence of Headteachers’ Task-Oriented Managerial Leadership Behaviours on Teachers’ Retention Intentions in Ghana
    (Sage Publications, 2018) Semarco, Stanley K.M.; Cho, Seokhee
    The study examined if significant dynamic and reciprocal relationships exist among the taskoriented managerial behaviours of headteachers, and how these behaviours specifically and jointly influence teachers’ retention intention. Out of the multistage sampled 350 schools, suitable questionnaires from 279 schools representing 558 questionnaires filled by teachers provided data on 279 headteachers. The analysis showed that headteachers’ problem-solving behaviour, clarifying behaviour and monitoring operations behaviour influenced their planning activities as leaders. The planning behaviour significantly predicted retention intention and had a significant mediating effect on the relationships between clarifying, monitoring, and problem- solving behaviours on one hand and teachers’ retention intention on the other. The implications of the study’s findings and future research directions are discussed.
