agency through which a political unit is exercise, authority and performs functions with
distribution of powers to official or governing body. Barangay officials play a vital role
in the empowerment of the local government units in the country. This is linked with the
leader’s accountability, fairness, and transparency in the exercise of his duties and

functions as a servant in his community.
This study is also an occasion for us to clarify our ideas on issues which are
today. Before we proceed further to examine the issues we have to be clear about what
we mean by good leadership for every community. Only then we will be able to work out
effective strategies to realize the goal of Barangay officials. We can look at the issue of
good leadership style by examining from each dimension where we are today, what are

Background of the Study
The southern shoreline of Laguna Bay, where the town of Pila is situated, has
long been recognized as a center of culture and trade as early as the Philippines’ pre-
Hispanic period. No less than the late Dr. Otley Beyer, eminently regarded as the “Father
site, yielded such artifacts as rare glass beads, gold jewelry, iron slugs, clay and porcelain
potteries all in handsome proportions and ethic Philippine design. Among the more than
300 specimens found were tools associated with the scholarly art of calligraphy as well as
Chinese ceramics dating back to the 11th century. The ancient Pileños tempered their
mercantile spirits with aesthetic and spiritual values. Their second settlement was named
Pagalangan, literally a place of worship and reverence. Headed by the Datu of Pila, it was
this settlement that was discovered in 1571 by the legendary Conquistador Juan de
Salcedo. Reference to the town of Pila first appeared in Spanish records in 1575. It was
conferred the honorable title La Noble Villa de Pila in recognition if its people’s refined
manners and customs. This distinction as the Spanish King’s privileged subjects
exempted Pileños from forced labor services. The town is composed of seventeen
barangays. All barangays are being classified as urban. The present administration is
