"Beyond leadership": unraveling the impact of ethical leadership on the most influential factors, an analysis of the mediating role of ethical climate and employee moral identity.

The hypotheses postulating direct effects of Ethical Leadership (EL) showed highly significant t-values: EL → EMI ( t = 15.746, p < 0.001, β = 0.587), EL → EC ( t = 12.021, p < 0.001, β = 0.546), EL → AC ( t = 6.398, p < 0.001, β = 0.339), EL → WH ( t = 7.378, p < 0.001, β = 0.362), and EL → WREP ( t = 4.770, p < 0.001, β = 0.291), confirming that Ethical Leadership (EL) constitutes a fundamental social resource that drives both motivational states and objective dimensions.
