Abstract

Leadership serves as a critical factor of efficiency, productivity, and overall success of an organization, particularly within the public sector where it directly influences the quality of governance and service delivery. Public sector leaders/managers in the Philippines encounter distinct challenges arising from bureaucratic structures, constraints in resources, and the increasing demand for a more efficient, resilient and responsive governance. Thus, this study seeks to examine the relationship between leadership competencies and managerial role effectiveness among selected public sector managers in Quezon City, Philippines. A researcher-made structured survey questionnaire was administered online to forty-seven (47) purposively selected respondents. Descriptive statistics and Spearman’s correlational matrix was used to analyze the data. Results revealed that participants generally demonstrated high to very high levels of leadership competency and role effectiveness, with weighted mean scores of 4.34 and 4.26, respectively. Given the results, this study found a strong positive correlation between leadership competency and role effectiveness. Capacity-building programs and developmental interventions were recommended to address low ratings in the change management and adaptability, and coaching and performance management competencies. Further research is recommended to include multiple local or national government agencies for improved generalizability.

Abstract

Violence Against Women (VAW) is a very widespread problem with no age, cultural, or socioeconomic limitations. Under the Republic Act No. 9262, VAW encompasses psychological, sexual, physical, and economic abuse among intimate relations, dating relations, or between the persons that share a common child. In response to this, the Quezon City organized the Men Opposed to Violence Against Women Everywhere (MOVE) Program that involved using men as a gender equality agent. This paper evaluated the effect of MOVE on awareness, attitudes, behavior, and community involvement of men on VAW. In a mixed-methods approach, 162 subjects were interviewed in MOVE sub-chapters in Quezon City Hall. Quantitative outcomes revealed an awareness increase of 35.1 in the form of VAW calculated between the mean scores before and after the program. The best outcomes were in learning about survivor support services and such concepts like toxic masculinity. Attitudinally, the participants strongly opposed violence, as they agreed that they should never hit their partner. There was also a high level of involvement in the program, 60.9% of the respondents said they were actively participating and working to revive the MOVE Quezon City Hall chapter. In spite of these gains, there are still challenges, such as the lack of community support and continued interest which can be an obstacle to the greater inclusion of males in the prevention of VAW.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of electronic collection (e-collection) systems on municipal revenue efficiency in selected municipalities of Iloilo Province, Philippines, within the context of ongoing digital governance reforms. While prior studies have established that electronic revenue systems generally enhance collection performance, empirical evidence at the municipal level in developing-country settings remains limited, particularly regarding how specific efficiency dimensions such as timeliness, accuracy, cost-effectiveness, and transparency are affected under partial system integration. Using a descriptive quantitative research design, data were collected through structured questionnaires administered to municipal treasurer and accountant offices in municipalities with operational e-collection systems. Revenue efficiency was assessed using a five-point Likert scale and analyzed through frequency distributions, weighted means, and standard deviations. Results indicate that e-collection systems have a high positive effect on revenue efficiency, particularly in transaction timeliness (WM = 3.74), cost-effectiveness (WM = 3.73), and transparency and accountability (WM = 3.96). Respondents reported faster payment processing, reduced manual encoding, clearer audit trails, and improved public trust. However, the impact on delinquency reduction and real-time reconciliation remained moderate, largely due to stand-alone system deployment, limited system integration with accounting platforms, and uneven staff capacity. Despite adoption growth in 2024 with 38.10% of sampled municipalities implementing e-collection, more than 90% of municipalities still process less than 10% of total transactions electronically. The study contributes localized empirical evidence showing that efficiency gains from e-collection are significant but constrained by institutional, technical, and administrative factors.
