Job experiences, challenges, revelations and narratives of nurse academics. A qualitative study
Charanjit Singh, Debra Jackson, Ian Munro, Wendy Cross
“Walking a tightrope”
Recruitment and retention of nurse academics is challenging for universities world-wide with work-life balance strategies suggested as a means of drawing talent. However, growing evidence suggests universities no longer provide the low-stress environment they once did with nurse academics now being required to balance teaching, research, supervision, administration, and community involvement.
Singh and colleagues (2022) conducted a qualitative exploratory study examining views and experiences of 19 Australian nurse academics about their professional work life. The participants interviewed identified lack of work–life balance due to increased workloads and inequitable distribution, and negative hierarchical highly competitive cultures due to incivility towards staff, lack of recognition, pressure to be politically astute and lack of leadership skills amongst management.
Participants feared ‘switching off’ due to increased workloads and pressure to progress in their careers, resulting in burnout and attrition. The highly competitive culture described identified an uncivil environment in academia where junior academics aimed to impress, while those in management or senior positions used junior academics for their own personal gain.
The authors suggest that heads of nursing schools internationally need to evaluate their current work-environment to ensure the educational university landscape is inviting and stress-controlled to retain nurse academic faculty. Negative cultural practices among senior nurse academics need to be urgently addressed to enhance a more cohesive, valued and collegial work-environment. Authors stressed the “importance of acknowledging daily interpersonal challenges.”
This paper makes a significant contribution to leaders, heads of nursing schools and policy maker’s understanding of nurse academic needs including a supportive culture and a better work–life balance.
