“Spirit-Oriented”—To Improve Job Satisfaction of Teachers in Physical Education Institutes

Abstract

Teaching staff is the most important human resources among educational resources; it is also the primary factor constituting the core competitiveness of colleges and universities. Job satisfaction of teaching staff in physical education institutes is the important factor which affects the development of our country’s athletics sports, school sports and mass sports. The long-term prejudice and misunderstanding from society, as well as negligence of supervisors, result in that job satisfaction of teachers in physical education institutes is generally low, and burnout and turnover intention of them is increasingly deepened. However, the concept of “spirit-oriented” taking paying attention to teachers’ spirit as starting point, caring for their work and life, reducing their working pressure and workload, putting oneself in someone else’s position, can fully tap teachers’ psychological potential, arouse teachers’ working enthusiasm and activeness, and improve working efficiency and job satisfaction, so as to improve the core competitiveness of physical education institutes, ensure the sustainable development of professional physical education institutes, and ultimately provide service for China in the conversion from a great nation to a nation with big power in terms of sports.
