Neuroplasticity as the basis of disruptive leadership: managerial strategies to transform culture and business agility
This research aims to analyze neuroplasticity as the foundation of disruptive leadership in order to propose managerial strategies that transform organizational culture and enhance business agility in rapidly accelerating contexts. In environments characterized by technological volatility and globalized competition, organizations face an urgent need for leaders capable of catalyzing profound changes in collective mental models. Neuroplasticity is defined as the brain's capacity to structurally and functionally reorganize its neural connections through experience, learning, and exposure to novel stimuli (Doidge, 2007). Disruptive leadership is characterized by questioning the organizational status quo, driving radical innovations, and reconfiguring cultural patterns through systematic experimentation and strategic tolerance for failure (Rahaman, 2024). A descriptive documentary-bibliographic methodology was employed, with a systematic review of 42 indexed academic sources (2018-2026). Thematic-comparative analysis and proactive integration were applied using an adapted PRISMA protocol (Moral-Cuadra et al., 2021). The results identify five operative neuroplastic mechanisms: strategic planning, controlled exposure to ambiguity, disruptive emotional regulation, multisensory narratives, and unlearning microhabits. These mechanisms develop key competencies for transformational leadership. The study concludes that neuroplasticity positions disruptive leadership as a biological lever for organizational change, enabling the systematic conversion of environmental disruptions into sustained competitive advantages through the reconfiguration of cognitive and cultural patterns.

Operations management in the face of global uncertainty from a strategic and resilient perspective
Operations management currently faces a scenario of unprecedented volatility, where global uncertainty dictates the need to reconfigure value chains. Under this scenario, this field emerges as an emerging discipline that provides a new vision for organizational sustainability, interpreting knowledge derived from the relationship between management sciences, advanced logistics, and strategic foresight. This synergy leads to the optimization of production processes in an effort to transform the operational architecture, assuming resilience as the fundamental axis for business adaptability. In this context, the purpose of this article is to reflect on Operations Management and Global Uncertainty from a senior management perspective, interpreting the processes that strengthen managerial praxis through a strategic and resilient vision. To this end, a situational analysis is carried out that highlights the challenges faced by the executive level during strategic decision-making, in line with the demands of a globalized market that requires flexible structures and proactive leadership. For this, a documentary hermeneutics was developed that allowed the interpretation of operations management as a process of inter-collaboration, assuming the commitment to permanent innovation. The results demonstrated the need to redefine the organizational architecture and risk models to adapt managerial practice to sustainable development from a strategic and resilient vision. It is concluded that strategic flexibility must be assumed as the core competency that guarantees corporate continuity, the robustness of the value chain, and the fulfillment of organizational goals in times of crisis.

Human Rights as a link to human dignity: universal principles from critical criminology and international law
This article aims to highlight the importance of human rights as a link to human dignity: universal principles from critical criminology and international law. Documentary analysis was employed, and texts with human rights-based content related to the topic of study were selected. To achieve this objective, a traditional or narrative review was conducted, consisting of an exhaustive search and analysis of the literature on the subject, including both classic works and recent scholarly articles. Bibliometric research and systematic reviews were emphasized as categories of documentary research, employing their own explicit methods. The current trend is primarily online searches or searches in academic databases available on the Internet, without excluding the possibility of analyzing printed documents not yet digitized, as continues to be done in some social science disciplines. The methodology was based on the phenomenological paradigm, which allowed for a qualitative theoretical exposition. Furthermore, a critical analysis of human rights and human dignity was made possible as a science that integrates interdisciplinary knowledge, with the purpose of comprehensively addressing new approaches to human development.

Financial management in the Municipal Entities of Santa Marta and Ciénaga
This article analyzes the financial management process in municipal entities of Santa Marta and Ciénaga. Theoretically grounded in the contributions of Hidalgo et al. (2025), Ossa (2025), Mejías (2022), Valle (2020), and Fajardo and Soto (2018), the study adopted a descriptive approach with a non-experimental, transactional field design. The population consisted of ten (10) financial managers and workers from the aforementioned sector. Data were collected through a 54-item questionnaire based on a tendential Likert scale, validated by five (5) subject-matter experts and yielding a Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient of 0.93. Findings revealed deficiencies in investment project execution, financial planning, and budget formulation. Furthermore, decision-making processes were found to lack an integrative perspective, as financial statement data are marginally used to inform corrective actions or operational planning. In response to these findings, the study proposes the establishment of a planning committee to conduct a SWOT analysis of the internal and external dimensions of financial management, complemented by a capacity-building program for both managerial and operational staff, under the technical guidance of external auditors.

Writing about business ethics in the third decade of the 21st century may seem, at first glance, an exercise in optimism or even naivety. It takes place in a global landscape marked by rampant inequality, the climate crisis, public mistrust of institutions, and corporate scandals that occur with disturbing regularity. In this context, ethics runs the risk of being perceived as a luxury, just another department, often relegated to the sidelines, or a simple manual of good intentions that is celebrated in annual reports while being ignored in the boardrooms where strategic decisions are made.

Ethical orthodoxy: a conscious consideration from the perspective of University Management
This article is the result of research aimed at presenting a theoretical contrast that encourages reflection on ethical orthodoxy from the perspective of university administration. Ethical orthodoxy implies the normativity of human actions, which requires conscious deliberation on social, managerial, and organizational problems. It refers to the strict application of norms and control processes based on discipline and method. In this sense, the article urges university administration to focus its efforts on fully fulfilling its ethical responsibility to design and implement training programs that are aligned with new managerial and business realities and demands. These programs should have as their fundamental objective the development of the necessary competencies so that those who receive this training can efficiently, effectively, and above all, successfully fulfill their roles within the organization. The theoretical postulates are based on the foundations developed by Seijo, Ochoa, and Ochoa (2024), Castro (2018), Duque (2019), Etkin (2015), Sanabria (2016), among others. The methodology was based on a documentary and bibliographic review, complemented by a hermeneutic analysis of hypothetical cases to contextualize the findings. The results reveal that a systemic approach can improve educational quality and equity by developing essential 21st-century skills. The study concludes that hybrid learning, with a long-term vision and the collaboration of all stakeholders, can transform education globally.
Stress vs. job burnout: Implications for human talent productivity in contemporary organizational environments
Stress and job burnout are increasingly frequent phenomena in contemporary organizations, with significant effects on employees’ individual well-being, productivity, and job satisfaction. Several factors—excessive workload, constant pressure to meet objectives, lack of recognition, ineffective leadership, imbalance between personal and professional life—generate unhealthy work environments. Considering this reality, it becomes essential to analyze stress and job burnout: implications for human talent productivity in contemporary organizational environments. This research, conducted under a qualitative paradigm, with a descriptive-documentary design, and based on an exhaustive review of scientific literature and case studies, enabled a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms through which stress and burnout affect both employees and business productivity. Among the most relevant preventive or corrective measures are the implementation of organizational well-being programs, the creation of healthy work environments, the promotion of open and transparent communication, the development of leadership focused on supporting and fostering human talent, the encouragement of work flexibility, and the availability of psychological assistance resources. The findings suggest that effective management of stress and burnout not only protects employees’ physical and emotional health; it also constitutes an organizational strategy that strengthens commitment, loyalty, and performance, thereby fostering a positive work culture. Consequently, comprehensive attention to these phenomena emerges as a strategic priority for modern organizations, ensuring sustainable benefits both for employees and for institutional efficiency.

Systematic review of work motivation: Health sector employees in Panama City
This topic constitutes a critical axis for ensuring the quality of healthcare services, particularly in urban contexts such as Panama City, where demand is continuously increasing. However, working conditions, institutional pressures, and the demands arising from patient care create tensions that can affect the commitment and satisfaction of healthcare personnel. This scenario underscores the need to thoroughly analyze the motivational factors that influence the retention, performance, and well-being of health professionals, as well as the institutional strategies required to strengthen them. The general objective was to analyze the motivation of health sector employees from a multidimensional perspective. Framed within a post-positivist paradigm, the study employed a mixed-methods approach, combining standardized surveys based on both classical and recent theories—such as classical motivational theories, Self-Determination Theory, and the Job Demands–Resources Model—with semi-structured interviews of professionals from various medical and administrative disciplines. A systematic review of chronological documents revealed that the most influential factors in motivation are institutional recognition, professional development opportunities, effective communication with leaders, and a favorable organizational climate. Furthermore, the post-pandemic context continues to act as a catalyst for this labor reflection. It is concluded that motivation does not depend solely on economic incentives but also on psychosocial and cultural variables, which must be addressed through comprehensive public human resource policies. Strengthening a sense of purpose, organizational and emotional equity emerges as a key strategy to foster resilience and commitment among healthcare personnel in the urban context of Panama City.
