Leadership style and career growth are becoming a major consideration for employees’ desire to stay or leave the organization. To minimize turnover, institutions of higher learning are concerned with identifying the major reasons behind it The study seeks to analyze the leadership styles and career growth in public universities as a determinant of employee turnover. The study adopted a descriptive research design. Organizations embracing appropriate leadership styles are less likely to have employee turnover. Most employees would prefer organizations that involve them in decision making and have proper channels to air their views and grievances.
