The article is the result of a dynamic leadership training, developed with managers and their substitutes in three enterprises in Pinar del Río. It originates from a training needs diagnosis, where it was revealed that one of the main gaps in professional improvement was in aspects related to the management and leadership activity. The fundamental objective of the training is to contribute to the dynamic leadership training of managers and substitutes of the enterprise system, with the purpose of redesigning their ways of acting towards more cooperative and conciliatory structures, in an open, flexible and dynamic work environment that generates a subjective well-being in the workers. The research is framed within a mixed design. The sample was made up of 42 subjects, managers and substitutes from the enterprises studied, and the Diagnostic Needs Assessment Questionnaire, the Semi-Structured Individual Interview and the Documentary Analysis were used as instruments in the diagnostic phase. The main effects of the implementation of this program point to the incorporation, by the managers, of tools and skills to conduct the processes in a more dynamic way in the organizations, they manage to strengthen the collaborative structures and relations of cooperation, and they recognize an improvement of the interpersonal and group communication. Finally, the vast majority of managers recognize the need for a change in management styles that is more open, flexible and where worker participation in decision-making processes is encouraged.
