Esta investigación profundizó en el liderazgo en la Enseñanza del inglés en un entorno rural cubano, que se enfrenta a desafíos como la escasez de recursos, acceso limitado al desarrollo profesional y deserción de docentes calificados. El objetivo fue resaltar la importancia del liderazgo en el Desarrollo Profesional Continuo (DPC) de los docentes y su impacto en el desarrollo de las habilidades lingüísticas de los estudiantes. Para lograr este objetivo, se diseñó una estrategia para promover el DPC como parte de las acciones de la Asociación de Pedagogos de Cuba-Especialistas en Lengua Inglesa (APC-ELI), la cual fue implementada en la provincia. La investigación se basó en un estudio teórico descriptivo; se utilizaron el método inductivo-deductivo, observación y encuesta. Además, se resaltó la colaboración del Vicedecanato de Investigación y Posgrado del Campus Blas Roca Calderío, en conjunto con el apoyo del Consejo Británico, para facilitar el DPC de los profesores.
