Abstract

In this study, the influence of leader-member exchange on teachers’ communication satisfaction and turnover intention is examined. A regression analysis shows that the independent variable (leader-member exchange) has a direct and significant effect on the dependent variables (communication satisfaction and turnover intention) in five vocational colleges examined in the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa. The findings confirm previous findings about the impact of workplace relationships on teachers’ attitudes and behaviours, especially supervisor-subordinate relationships. The implications of these findings are discussed as they relate to the management of teachers at vocational education institutions in South Africa.
