Hello Ernesto,

Could you please try following and let me know if this helps you. But Input_file should be same as shown sample Input_file(ditto exact) else it would provide different output too.
Code:
awk '{sub(/[0-9]+/,X,$0);match($0,/[[:alpha:]]+[[:digit:]]+/);ID=substr($0,RSTART,RLENGTH);DES=substr($0,RLENGTH+1);match(DES,/[a-zA-Z]+/);NAME=substr(DES,RSTART,RLENGTH);gsub(/.* |Active.*/,X,DES);sub(/[a-z]+/,"& ",NAME);VAL=ID FS NAME FS DES;gsub(/LEAD|MANGER/," &",VAL);print VAL}' Input_file

EDIT: Adding a non-one liner form of above solution too now.
Code:
awk '{
        sub(/[0-9]+/,X,$0);
        match($0,/[[:alpha:]]+[[:digit:]]+/);
        ID=substr($0,RSTART,RLENGTH);
        DES=substr($0,RLENGTH+1);
        match(DES,/[a-zA-Z]+/);
        NAME=substr(DES,RSTART,RLENGTH);
        gsub(/.* |Active.*/,X,DES);
        sub(/[a-z]+/,"& ",NAME);
        VAL=ID FS NAME FS DES;
        gsub(/LEAD|MANGER/," &",VAL);
        print VAL
     }
    '   Input_file

Thanks,
R. Singh
