Abstract

This study sought to establish the effect of hierarchical culture orientation on employee turnover at Private Members Golf Clubs in Nairobi City County. A total of 578 employees working in various sections of the golf clubs were targeted for the study. Data was collected using a semi-structured questionnaire and interview schedule. The study found a relatively low level of employee turnover among the Private Members Golf Clubs which was attributable to the existence of functional hierarchical culture orientation. It is recommended that to further enhance employee retention at the private members golf clubs, the the hierarchical culture orientation aspects of criteria for success, strategic emphasis, organizational leadership and dominant characteristics should be more emphasized and entrenched by these institutions as their effect on reducing employee turnover was found to be statistically significant.
