Likewise, a multivariate correlational transactional analysis was carried out, since they describe the relationships between three variables. The main results of the research indicate that the variables are related, both statistically and through the qualitative information analyzed. It is concluded that, through organizational transformation through the management of knowledge, commitment and competencies, the goals of objective 8 of sustainable development can be met.
