Abstract

Introduction: Multiple factors influence the success of organizations; in the case of universities, economic aspects, talents, meritocracy, and good management by the government are considered. Methodology: In this context, the main objective of this research is to analyze, from the perspective of experts, the implications of compensation and incentive systems in order to reflect on their influence on management. To this end, an exploratory and quantitative research was conducted, grounding its analysis in the opinions of academic experts who are part of the various councils that make up university governance, with special consideration given to the importance of co-governance in Argentina. Multiple techniques, including descriptive and inferential statistics, were used for data analysis. Results: The results identify the potential effectiveness of the studied variables as alignment mechanisms. Conclusions: Among the conclusions, it can be identified that a broad market of candidates for the position of rector has a positive effect on the management of current rectors.
