A model of voluntary turnover among hospital CEOs
Article Abstract:
Research was done to evaluate why hospital chief executives left their jobs in 1990. A total of 1,362 CEOs who stayed on their jobs were compared to 49 CEOs who left their jobs. Factors that pushed an individual to leave the job fell primarily under job dissatisfaction. Job dissatisfaction included low salary and a contrast in values of the hospital and the CEO. Other factors that could contribute to voluntary resignations were a spouse's job or costs of a job change.
