<p>Teaching is a noble profession to educate the youth of nations facing today’s global challenges. Teaching, at the same time, has become a highly challenging profession and occasionally a draining work, especially for those who are working in the remote areas. A high-level of teacher absenteeism in the primary schools of Southern Papua has blown some societal alarm for conducting studies focusing on emotional exhaustion as a latent predictor for low-performance. This study attempted to describe the eventual correlation between the emotional exhaustion and organizational commitment of teachers working in the primary schools of Merauke, Indonesia. A survey approach was employed to collect data from a total of 243 primary school teachers in Merauke, Papua, Indonesia. Data were examined statistically by employing Pearson’s correlation model. Results of analysis showed that the emotional exhaustion and commitment of primary school teachers in Merauke, Indonesia, are significantly negatively correlated. This result may be useful for the teachers to benefit from the information of how they may interact with all the school elements and the extent to which these emotions directly affect their organizational commitment. The result may also be advisable for the school leaders to take some tactical efforts of securing teachers’ emotion to promote a high-level of teachers’ organizational commitment and, in turn, improving students’ capabilities in reading, writing, and arithmetics.</p>

“…Individuals’ commitment to their organization is also related to their commitment to their occupation (Lee et al, 2000; Vandenberg & Scarpello, 1994). In the literature, it has been determined that there is a significant relationship between teachers’ leadership behaviors and their organizational commitment (Ford et al, 2019; Hulpia et al, 2011) and their affective occupational commitment (Muthiah et al, 2020; Ross et al, 2016; Veeriah et al, 2017). The mediating role of employee voice in the current research can be explained in three ways.…”

The research aims to reveal the effect of teachers’ agile leadership perceptions on their affective occupational commitment and how employee voice plays a mediating role in this effect. The study group of the research consists of 354 teachers working in Istanbul in 2021. The research is carried out according to the relational survey model. Correlation analysis is carried out and tested using the suggested mediation model based on the relationship between the variables to determine the relationship between variables. According to the research findings, the agile leadership characteristics of school principals positively affect their affective occupational commitment. Additionally, mediation analysis showed that employee voice is a partial mediator between agile leadership characteristics and affective occupational commitment. This research contributes to the theory by revealing the important effects of the agile leader in the school. In the light of the findings, the implications of the agile leader, employee voice, and occupational commitment of teachers were discussed, and suggestions were made for future research.

“…Effective leadership does not only result in a better student support and higher academic performance, but it also contributes to the increase in teachers' satisfaction and motivation, which is one of the important factors in ensuring quality teaching and learning. Veeriah, Chua, and Siaw (2017) reported positive correlation between principals' transformational leadership skills and teacher affective commitment. The principals placed importance on the sharing of vision and mission, as well as establishing school culture that contributes towards strengthening the organisation as a whole.…”

Although the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Malaysia has been lingering for over three decades since its first reported case in 1986, due to continuous medical advancement and social awareness, people living with HIV/AIDS now have a longer life span and are able to live a relatively normal life. School-age HIV-positive children can obtain formal education like their peers; however, this is not without challenges, especially in terms of stigma and discrimination. This is where school leadership comes to play its part. The purpose of this research is to explore the leadership characteristics of the headmasters towards students living with HIV/AIDS in schools. This study adopted a qualitative methodology where six headmasters of primary schools in Klang Valley were selected using purposive sampling and interviewed. The interview schedule contained four open-ended questions with an overall purpose of examining the characteristics of the headmasters' leadership towards students living with HIV/AIDS at the schools. Thirteen leadership characteristics emerged from the analysis: "having knowledge and understanding", "providing knowledge and creating understanding", "meticulous", "pragmatic", "reliable", "ethical", "considerate", "impartial", "supportive", "attentive", "collegial", "building collaboration", and "consulting others". This research serves as a base for future studies on leadership effectiveness, specifically towards students living with HIV/AIDS, as well as for improving guidelines on managing HIV/AIDS cases in schools.
