For the qualitative part of the study, Campus Executive Officers (CEOs) and college deans were the study participants. Descriptive statistics (frequency count, rank, percentage, and mean) was used to analyze the respondents’ profile and their level of OST and PLC. Likewise, analysis of variance was used in examining the differences of OST and PLC. All analyses were tested at 0.05 level of significance using IBM SPSS. For the qualitative part, sequential explanatory design was utilized to analyze the factors explaining the quantitative result of the study through interview with the CEOs and select deans of different colleges in the campuses. This study found out that the OST of the respondents is very high as they see the elements of the entire university as a holistic system rather than isolated parts. The PLC of the respondents is high as they work collaboratively to achieve better results for the students that they serve. It was found out that the OST of the respondents is the same across campuses of the university. Likewise, the PLC of the respondents do not differ irrespective of their campus assignment. Analysis of this study also showed the respondents’ age, sex, academic rank, highest educational attainment, and length of service are not associated with their level of OST and PLC. 2023-12-01T11:24:55Z 2023-12-01T11:24:55Z 2023-09-30 journal article Anderson G.
