Liderazgo y Cultura Organizacional: Influencias en la Productividad en Ecuador

Abstract

The article examines the influence of leadership and organizational culture on the productivity of organizations in Ecuador. The objective is to analyze and synthesize the existing literature on this topic to provide a solid basis for future research and business practices. Methodologically, a comprehensive literature review was conducted using academic databases and specific inclusion criteria. The results indicate that transformational and autocratic leadership are the predominant styles in Ecuador, with the former associated with higher levels of motivation and commitment, and the latter limiting employee creativity and autonomy. Positive organizational culture, characterized by trust, open communication and a sense of belonging, is directly related to productivity. However, challenges such as rigid hierarchy and resistance to cultural change are significant obstacles. The discussion highlights the need for leadership that models and sustains a positive organizational culture to align individual and organizational goals. In conclusion, the development of leadership competencies, the promotion of a culture of innovation and the implementation of inclusive policies are recommended to improve productivity in Ecuadorian organizations.
