The purpose of this study was to describe the organizational climate, psychosocial risk factors and leadership styles perceived by a group of 400 workers of the health sector in four Colombian cities and to observe whether there are significant differences between them. In order to achieve this objective, the instruments entitled ECO, CFP and PAT_were administered. According to the results, the participants showed psychosocial risks factors of diverse nature and the most relevant ones were those related to interpersonal relationships. Although the organizational climate found was not optimal, it was not adverse either. The two resulting leadership styles were evidenced only in Bogota. Significant differences were found in most variables studied which could be attributed to cultural aspects. These findings are discussed.

En contextos culturales, algunos prefieren trabajar con el jefe rudo
In Colombia, Law 1010 of 2006 provided workers with the tools to defend themselves from harassment in the workplace. Sometimes, however, what they call harassment is really not. This prompted Adriana Camacho and David H. Barbosa, researchers at the Universidad del Rosario, to undertake a study of cases of harassment in the culture and leadership of organizations which seem to be inappropriate.
Patrones de liderazgo en la cultura regional: un análisis intersectorial
The purpose of this study is to verify whether or not there is a characteristic pattern of leadership in a specific regional culture and also whether there are any significant differences according to the economic sector to which the organization belongs (industry and services). A sample of 449 employees of eight companies that operate in the city of Bucaramanga was used. The Pitcher Adjectives Test (PAT) was applied. According to the results, a leadership pattern characterized by the following adjectives: responsible, human, hardworking, collaborative, honest and pleasant, does exist. In general, the characteristics of leadership in the two sectors studied were very similar, although certain differences were noted. In this text the findings are discussed.
Prácticas de liderazgo y su relación con la cultura en un grupo de países latinoamericanos
The aim of this study was to analyze, by using the MLQ5X, the leadership profiles of 167 managers from four Latin American countries (Peru, Venezuela, Ecuador and Colombia), to see if there are different patterns of leadership despite cultural similarities. Likewise, these profiles were compared with results obtained by other authors from different regions. Finally, these results were compared with another Colombian sample. Significant differences in leadership were found, both in culturally different countries and in Latin American countries, despite their cultural similarities. Finally, the sample of managers in this study differs significantly from the other Colombian sample, in some variables of the MLQ. These findings are discussed.
Del liderazgo transaccional al liderazgo transformacional: implicaciones para el cambio organizacional
This review article discusses on the importance of change in the evolution and development of organizations and how it must be addressed by the leaders in a different way to traditional, considering the current environment in which organizations have to operate. This raises the need to go beyond transactional leadership best suited to stable environments with greater predictability, toward transformational leadership where instability and uncertainty are usual. The purpose of this study is describing the organizational change from both perspectives, that is, the classical one, in which the organization is understood as a machine and the context´s stability is assumed, and the current trend, in which the organization is considered as an organizational system able to self-organize and that by those means adapts itself to the requirements of increasingly unstable environments. It is proposed that this approach could be more appropriate given the complex conditions in which the organizations operate currently.

Gestión del conocimiento y liderazgo: Perspectivas de relación
This paper shows relationships that have been studied between knowledge management and leadership in order to better understand the interaction between both constructs. With this purpose, we have first performed a theoretical review of the central aspects of knowledge management and leadership, and then we have analyzed the relationship between these concepts in order to set perspectives that contribute to the identification of areas and process development for the sustainability of organizations. Our results indicate the existence of a strong relationship between leadership and knowledge management, so companies need greater knowledge about the characteristics of leadership to facilitate the understanding and implementation of best practices in the organization.
