This research aims to analyze the ability and capacity of local government organizations in implementing fisherman empowerment programs. A qualitative approach is employed in this research to explain the capacity of local government organizations according to the context and factuality. Data are collected through observation, in-depth interviews, Focus Group Discussions and Documentation. Interactive data analysis methods are used to analyze the data obtained. The results of the research show that professional development is not carried out continuously and there is a lack of capacity building and training programs provided to employees, particularly relating to strengthening organizational capacity in fostering fisherman groups. As for resources and supports, there are limited human resources and budget allocations dedicated for the fisherman empowerment programs. And in organizational environment, the incentives are low, coupled with relatively rigid standard operating procedures and bureaucratic structures. The results of this research reveal that the capacity of public organizations needs to be supported by quality organizational leadership, especially facilitative and collaborative leadership. This factor becomes crucial given the role of organizational leaders as policy makers who determine the direction of policy, planning and implementation.
