Source text:

Estos factores refuerzan la necesidad de cambiar la forma en la que trabajamos y nos articulamos para conseguir resultados positivos en el desempeño del sector, empleando un enfoque sistémico que aborde todas las dimensiones de las políticas.

My try:
These factors stress the need to change our work approach and the way we organize to obtain positive results in the performance of the sector by using a systemic approach that tackles all the dimensions....

No obstante me parece que mi traducci'on de " el desempeño del sector" es demasiado literal.

[to achieve positive] sector performance
Explanation:
In this context, 'results' seems unnecessary. Your document seems a bit wordy. This is the third question you've posted recently where I felt that one word would have been more effective than several.

If you want to keep 'results', then your own answer is fine.

English tends to use more compact chunks than Spanish. Often, a longer phrase in Spanish such as "resultados positivos (1) + en el desempeño (2) + del sector (3)" becomes more compact in English: "positive performance results (1) + in the relevant sector (2)"

neutral  Marcel Gomez: Source text says "DEL sector". So probabilities are that it is referring to a specific sector in particular. Uhmm... only the asker can say for sure.
