Abstract

This study used a descriptive-quantitative research method as it describes the profile of Chinese university professors in terms of age, gender, and educational background. It also described the leadership virtues in terms of prudence, fortitude, temperance, and justice; professional self-esteem in terms of career choice and adaptability, career satisfaction and values, career impact and fulfillment, and career competence and evaluation; and teaching management in terms of teaching management and evaluation, the area of teaching and research activities, and the area of collective lesson planning activities. Diversity leadership training and instructional management training are provided to meet the needs of different groups of faculty and staff of different gender, age, and education levels. Individualized professional development plans are based on the personal characteristics and needs of professors, particularly in the areas of leadership, teaching management, and career satisfaction. To address the relationship among leadership virtues, professional self-esteem, and teaching management, long-term, in-depth research is encouraged to better understand the dynamics between them. Based on the results, this paper recommends the implementation of the proposed professional development plan.
