Abstract
The study aimed to determine the nature of the relationships between employers and employees, as well as between employees themselves, and how these interactions influence job satisfaction at private universities in Mogadishu. The researchers carried out an exhaustive review of the relevant literature and studies. In the current study, a quantitative methodology was used to carry out field research, and a sample size of 194 academic staff members was chosen to be representative of the population. They used questionnaires to collect data specifically about workplace relationships and job satisfaction. The study team meticulously gathered data to guarantee the reliability of the outcomes. Subsequently, the data was examined using statistical applications such as SPSS version 23 and SmartPLS 4. The research found a strong link between workplace relationships and job satisfaction. The empirical evidence enhances the existing theoretical understanding of the positive effects of workplace relationships. It rigorously analyzes the prevalent instances of employer-employee connections and employee-employee relationships. This research significantly adds to the ongoing scholarly discourse on workplace relationships inside academic institutions, offering valuable insights into the favorable results linked to this phenomenon. The study presented a list of recommendations for more research that may be conducted to solve the deficiencies that were revealed.
