| Summary: | Leaders form the character and the nature of the organizations. In this respect
ethical leaders may be the solution for organizations in corruption and employees in
trouble. For this reason we treated ethical leadership as a healer, and analyzed its
effects on intention to quit along with moderation effect of perceptions of
organizational politics and mediation effect of organizational identification on this
interaction. To that end, data were collected from 103 sales persons, who work at
an international white good producing firm, in Ankara, Turkey through
questionnaire. The data were analyzed with multifarious statistical techniques. The
findings affirm healing effect of ethical leadership on intention to quit. In addition,
as a new discovery, moderation effect of perceptions of organizational politics on
healing effect of ethical leadership was found. Finally it was discovered that
organizational identification and ethical leadership predict intention to quit
separately. |
