Abstract

This research investigated the principals' application of personnel management skills in Secondary Schools in Enugu State. The population of this study comprised of all the principals from the government secondary schools in Enugu State. Respondents were taken from two education zones randomly sampled from the six education zones of the state. Two (2) research questions and one (1) null hypothesis guided the study. The research questions were answered using a four-point modified Likert's scale while the null hypothesis was tested using the t'test. The result revealed that the principals applied the personnel management skills for effective staff orientation and staff professional development only to the least extent. It was further revealed that there was no significant difference in the level of application of personnel management skills for the effective staff professional development by less experienced and more experienced principals. Based on these findings, it was recommended that the principals themselves be trained in the skills for personnel management through seminars and workshops. It was further recommended that the principals be supervised on a more regular basis in order to discover other areas where they need more attention.
