However, 60% perceive a lack of transparency, and 20% have witnessed corruption. Additionally, 56% indicate insufficient leadership training programs, highlighting the need in areas such as effective communication and team management. Some 48% have noted the implementation of new technologies due to organizational leadership, but there is still room for significant improvements. It is concluded that organizational leadership in the Municipality of Mariano Roque Alonso positively impacts efficiency and productivity, although significant challenges in terms of transparency and ethics remain. Clear policies and training programs are essential to address these challenges and improve the perception of fairness. Ongoing training in key areas such as effective communication and team management is crucial to strengthen staff competencies.
