Abstract
The purpose of the study was to develop a framework for training apprentice principals based on their 21st century managerial skills. Specifically, the study sought
to (1) describe the 21st century managerial skills of the participants; and (2) examine
the common themes that emerged from the data.
The study utilized the qualitative method of research. It involved two primary data collection techniques: interviewing and non-participant observation. The semi-
structured qualitative research interview was employed as the data collection tool.
While the qualitative data analysis software, Ailas.ti, was found to be beneficial in the initial coding, manual axial coding had led the researcher in identifying common themes.
The applicability of the research findings served as the basis for the development of a training model for principal's test passers. Synthesis of studies reviewed for triangulation showed research-based evidences to support the daim that the emergence of the 21st century management skills of the 2015 principal's test passers in the National Capital Region (NCR) was shaped by an overarching foursome. First is the participants' understanding of basic self-identity, attributes, and capabilities. Second is the recurring effect of job shadowing in the workplace. Third is the deep-rooted influence of family orientation. Fourth is the participants' time- tested best practices and beliefs. This four-pronged approach ascertained that the objective envisioned by the workforce in the onset of the journey will be the objective attained at the end of the road. Thus, from these codes, three emerging themes corroborated the major findings of the study: provident-inspired managerial skills, family-enthused managerial skills, and echelon effect managerial skills.
