SANTIAGO-TORNER, Carlos. Ethical Leadership and Organizational Commitment. The Unexpected Role of Intrinsic Motivation. rev.univ.empresa [online]. 2023, vol.25, n.45, e6. Epub 03-Mar-2024. ISSN 0124-4639. https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/empresa/a.13169.
The effect of ethical leadership on business behavior is an area of interest that has not received enough attention in recent years. Consequently, this research's main objective is to analyze the repercussions of ethical leadership on organizational commitment using intrinsic motivation as a mediating variable through five independent models. The sample is comprised of 448 employees. Ethical leadership is related to organizational commitment and specifically to the affective, normative, and perceived sacrifice dimensions (continuity 2) but not to lack of work alternatives (continuity 1). In addition, intrinsic motivation is a mechanism that facilitates the relationship of ethical leadership with organizational commitment, specifically with affective commitment. However, it fails to empirically explain how the ethical leader is associated with normative commitment or perceived sacrifices (continuity 2). As expected, intrinsic motivation is not related to or does not mediate the lack of job alternatives (continuity 1). In conclusion, the relationship between ethical leadership and organizational commitment does not depend, in any case, on the intrinsic motivation of the follower.
