Abstract
Faculty members are the backbone of higher education enterprises, serving as experts who nurture the country's long-term competitive advantage and socioeconomic development. High faculty turnover from heis is detrimental and unaffordable for emerging economies like pakistan. The higher education sector in pakistan is currently struggling with high faculty turnover issues, resulting in poor faculty retention. The study of faculty turnover in pakistan, particularly in relation to leadership practices, has received limited attention. The present research evaluates how servant leadership attributes in higher education influence the faculty's long-term stay at heis. The aim of this research is to investigate and curb the faculty retention issues prevailing in private heis in pakistan through the adoption of servant leadership attributes. The major objective of the present research is to investigate the influence of servant leadership practices on faculty retention at pakistan's private heis. Furthermore, this study also evaluates the potential mediating role of job satisfaction and the moderating role of structural empowerment in the relationship between servant leadership and faculty retention. The present study used a quantitative research method with a survey research design. The researcher proposed and investigated seven hypothesized relationships among the research variables. The researcher employed a survey research instrument with 94 closed-ended questions to collect the data from private heis of lahore, pakistan.
