Abstract

This study focuses on the City of Carmona, Cavite, and aims to describe the problems the city has in maintaining the Seal of Good Local Governance. It seeks to determine what the challenges are to the Local Government Units’ (LGU) ability to keep the SGLG status, how these challenges affect the city’s operations, then provide recommendations to address these challenges. Based on the data and a "Strongly Agree" consensus from respondents, the Local Government Unit of Carmona has a considerable capacity to sustain its governance practices. This is attributable to the governance framework being grounded on well-defined and institutionalized policies and sufficiency of resources, ability to balance SGLG compliance and SGLG urgent local priorities, and active participation from stakeholders. On the other hand, respondents "Agree" that there are risks to the long-term sustainability of the LGU, which include policy gaps, and unclarity of mandates, inadequate funding, political shifts, the turnover of leadership, natural calamities, and disasters.

Abstract

The study aims to determine the role of the Islamic principle of consultative decision-making, known as Shūrā, in the decision-making processes of the officials of the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos (NCMF). The proponents of this study employed a qualitative method to collect the required information, supporting this study by interviewing six executive and management-level officials of NCMF to gain their perspective on the issue, their practices, and the difficulties encountered in implementing Shūrā. The data were then subjected to thematic analysis using a six-phase data analysis framework developed by Braun and Clarke. The research revealed five primary themes, including: Shūrā as an Islamic and participatory governance value; Shūrā as a form of participatory and consultative decision-making; balancing Islamic consultative values with government procedures; Shūrā as an Organizational Cohesion and Trust value; and the sustainability and institutionalization of Shūrā in NCMF. The findings revealed that Shūrā provides participatory governance, cultivates trust, and bridges Islamic values and formal government processes. However, its continued application relies on making it part of the institution, not just tied to current leaders.

Abstract

The research entitled “The Dynamics of Workplace Bullying: Behavioral Indicators and Organizational Implications among Non-Teaching Personnel in the Schools Division Office of the Department of Education, City Schools Division of Cabuyao” explores how bullying happens in an educational workplace and among non-teaching personnel. The main goal was to understand what were the behavioral aspects that ignites to bullying in workplace setting and how these affect the people who experience it as well as its organizational implication, while indeed, identifying strategies or interventions to promote a healthy and safe working environment within the workplace in mitigation to bullying. The study used descriptive-explanatory sequential mixed- methods research design and gathered data from 77 respondents through an online survey questionnaire followed by a semi-structured interview among 10 non-teaching staff. Findings showed that behavioral indicators of workplace bullying such as verbal and psychological abuse; social exclusion or isolation; work-related harassment; and cyberbullying and digital harassment have a significant impact and implication to the organization in as much as job satisfaction and morale, psychological well-being and stress, team collaboration and organizational climate, and employee retention and turnover intention were concerned. Results also highlighted that these variables were contributory for the organizations efficiency in general. Workplace bullying, though rarely experienced, still exhibited in various injurious forms that significantly affect employee well-being and organizational performance. This underscored the significance of instigating proactive policies and support systems to ensure a healthy, safe, respectful, and productive work environment for employees and people in the organization.

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.
