Corruption and inefficiency in decentralized systems hinder governance and economic growth, while altruism and conscientiousness in organizations foster transparent, collaborative cultures. Giving more power to local governments through fiscal decentralization can lead to better service delivery and meeting the needs of the community, as long as negative behaviors are minimized, and organizational citizenship behaviors are promoted. The essay highlights the significance of focused interventions like anti-corruption efforts and ethics training to improve governance integrity and promote sustainable economic growth.</em></div> https://journals.kmanpub.com/index.php/aitechbesosci/article/download/2870/5774
