Zusammenfassung

This article is the product of a research project that aimed to compare the degree of job satisfaction of the school principal and the teacher.We evaluated different aspects related to job satisfaction such as: gender, age, academic qualifications, years of experience, duties, authority, resources, professional development, and institutional environment. The study was conducted in different secondary schools located in East Orlando, Florida. A sample of 293 teachers and 37 principals were selected to participate in the study. A sample of 293 teachers and 37 principals were selected to participate in the study. Data collection was through literature review, questionnaires and interviews. Furthermore, the Likert scale to quantify the results was used. The findings of this research reflected the existing levels of satisfaction and dissatisfaction among school principals and teachers. The most important aspects were the authority, resources, professional development and the institutional environment, as it was found that poor communication, poor leadership decisions, wages and lack of resources were the primary cause of discontent and dissatisfaction for both principals and teachers. As a result of these considerations, a number of recommendations were raised in order to improve professional development and institutional environment and working conditions that foster a quality teaching-learning process. It should be noted that this study will encourage members of the educational hierarchy to find measures to promote a work environment that encourages teachers and principals to feel more satisfied with their work in order to achieve excellence in education. The satisfaction of the faculty will encourage growth in the different aspects of education, and job satisfaction plays an important role in the performance and productivity of an individual within an organization.
