Abstract:
This study explores Career Management Strategies and Commitment among Chinese Elementary School Teachers, aiming to address a notable research gap in understanding the relationship between career management strategies and commitment within this demographic. Employing a quantitative research design, data was collected from 300 elementary school teachers using convenience sampling. Results reveal a positive correlation between career management strategies and commitment among teachers. Furthermore, no significant differences were found in agreement levels across demographic profiles. This study contributes new knowledge by providing insights into the career dynamics of Chinese elementary school teachers and highlights the importance of proactive career management in fostering commitment to the teaching profession. One significant recommendation arising from this study is the implementation of tailored career development programs for Chinese elementary school teachers, focusing on mentorship, networking, and flexibility. Empowering teachers to actively manage their careers, educational institutions can enhance commitment levels and support teacher retention efforts.
