Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı etik liderliğin örgütsel özdeşleşme üzerinde etkisinde personelin ahlaki kimliğinin düzenleyici rolünü tespit etmektir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda çalışma Tokat ili merkez ilçesinde bulunan banka şubelerinde çalışan 172 personel üzerinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma verilerinin analizinde SPSS Process Macro ve AMOS kullanılmıştır. Araştırma verilerinde elde edilen bulgular doğrultusunda etik liderliğin örgütsel özdeşleşme üzerinde pozitif yönlü anlamlı bir etkisi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu ilişkide ahlaki kimliğin düzenleyici bir rolü olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ahlaki kimliğin düşük, orta ve yüksek olması durumunda etik liderliğin örgütsel özdeşleşme davranışını kademeli olarak daha fazla etkilemeye başladığı tespit edilmiştir. Fakat bu durumun anlamlı bir şekilde ahlaki kimlik düzeyi düşük bireylerde daha fazla gerçekleştiği ortaya konmuştur.
