How Ethical Leadership Affects Employee's Creativity

Most of the existing research is devoted to studying the positive role of ethical leadership in employees and organizations. This study is based on social psychology theory such as social information processing theory and behavioral plasticity theory, revealing the negative influence of ethical leadership on employee creativity and its mediating mechanism. Conclusions can provide some management advice and suggestions for leaders. The study found that ethical leadership is significantly positively related to employee's dependence on the leader; core self-evaluation regulates ethical leadership's impact on employee's dependency on leadership. Ethical leaders can have a negative impact on employee creativity through employee's dependency on leader only when the employee has a low core self-evaluation. According to this conclusion, business managers can make appropriate adjustments to their leadership behaviors and achieve their management goals.
