| Итог: | This study empirically examined the propositions that ethical leadership is related to employees’ organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) through two psychological mechanisms: (a) a social learning mechanism, where employees emulate their supervisor’s behavior such as caring about their organization; and (b) a social exchange mechanism that links ethical leadership to perceived procedural justice and employee’s organizational concern. Our theoretical model was tested using data collected from employees in a pharmaceutical retail chain company. Analyses of multisource time-lagged data from 93 team supervisors and 486 employees showed that supervisors’ and employees’ organizational concern sequentially mediated the relationship between ethical leadership and employee OCB. It was also found that the link between ethical leadership and employee OCB was sequentially mediated by perceived procedural justice and employee’s organizational concern. Theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed. |
