Ethical Leadership: Driving Efficiency and Trust in Local Governance

Ms. Nosipho Hlatshwayo, CEO of the South African Cities Network, highlights the financial toll of corruption in resource-strapped municipalities, urging ethical leadership to maximise every cent through tools like technology for efficient financial management.

She calls for all government spheres to collaborate in creating supportive environments for ethics. Noting evolving leaders and citizens, she stresses building systems around enduring values to address future challenges.

Ultimately, she advocates community-centered decisions with transparency to foster public trust in local institutions.
