Rotation of Public Managers. Problem of management or solution of political trust?
Main Article Content
Abstract
The study analyzes the rotation of high level public managers in Ecuador and their use as an instrument of political trust from the Executive, in contrast to a life cycle model of managerial performance, to determine if it is a problem to obtain results in the management. A qualitative and diachronic analysis of rotation rates and the time of permanence in the position of the managers is carried out from a sample of Ministries that represent an important weight in relation to the State management model for the five-year period 2012-2016; as a result, it is shown that with high levels of turnover problems are configured to effect a professional management and, although this is used as a political and electoral tool for the movement of the authorities, at these levels its strategic utility decreases.
