Abstract
This study aimed to examine the level of organizational management factors at Nanning University. The research focused on four dimensions: leadership effectiveness, organizational culture, teacher competency, and knowledge sharing. A descriptive research design was employed to describe the current condition of organizational management based on the perceptions of university employees. The sample consisted of 276 academic and administrative staff members from Nanning University, selected from a population of 890 lecturers using Yamane’s formula at a 95% confidence level. A structured questionnaire was used as the research instrument, and the data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation.
The findings revealed that the overall level of organizational management factors at Nanning University was at a high level, with a mean score of 3.86 and a standard deviation of 0.77. Among the four dimensions, leadership effectiveness had the highest mean score (M = 4.09, S.D. = 0.72), followed by teacher competency (M = 4.02, S.D. = 0.73), organizational culture (M = 3.77, S.D. = 0.77), and knowledge sharing (M = 3.58, S.D. = 0.75). All dimensions were interpreted at a high level, indicating that employees generally perceived the university’s organizational management positively. However, knowledge sharing received the lowest mean score among the four dimensions, suggesting that the university may further strengthen opportunities for staff members to exchange professional knowledge, teaching experience, and work-related information. The results of this study provide useful information for university administrators to improve internal management, enhance staff collaboration, support teacher development, and promote institutional effectiveness.
