Probing The Leadership Styles of Local Government Units

Abstract

The objectives of the study included examining the various leadership styles that were viewed as well as assessing the performance of the organization. Using a hybrid survey questionnaire based on the Seal of Good Local Governance (SGLG) indicators, a descriptive-causal research approach was used to gather and analyze data from a sample of 718 respondents from the LGUs of Cauayan City, Echague, San Guillermo, and San Isidro. The respondents came from Cauayan City, Echague, San Guillermo, and San Isidro. According to the findings, department heads and supervisors at LGUs displayed a blend of charismatic, transformational, and visionary leadership styles, with an emphasis on clear communication, motivation, and innovation. However, there was space for development in the transactional leadership style. In addition to this, the survey found remarkable organizational effectiveness across a variety of domains. The outcomes of the research also show the importance of socio-economic profiles as factors that impact leadership styles. The findings of the study showed that there is a significant positive association between leadership styles and the performance of organizations. This finding highlights the significance of developing individualized leadership training programs for heads and supervisors in Isabela's 6th Congressional District.
