One’s values are reflected on one’s leadership. This is manifested in how leaders steer the organization toward the achievement of goals and motivate excellent performance from their people.
To help current and potential public sector leaders recognize values in effective leadership, the Civil Service Commission (CSC), through the Civil Service Institute (CSI) will hold the 2nd Quarter CSI Leadership Series themed, “Values-Driven Leadership” set on 19 June 2019 in Oritgas, Pasig City.
The forum aims to help participants appreciate values-driven leadership in the workplace and its impact on decision-making and strategy formulation and implementation, be knowledgeable on core public service values for heightened individual and organizational performance, and know of best practices in values-driven leadership from different guest organizations.

Appointees who have taken their oath of office and assumed the duties of the position are entitled to receive their salaries.
This was clarified by the Civil Service Commission (CSC) in light of the delay in the issuance of salaries of newly-hired teachers, allegedly because their appointments have not yet been approved by the CSC.
“The appointment issued by the agency is enough to warrant the release of the appointee’s salaries and wages. Thus, the Commission urges the Department of Education to release their salaries immediately,” said CSC Chairperson Alicia dela Rosa-Bala.
