Abstract
AbstractThe present research explores the role of lateral exchange relationships among peer leaders (i.e., leader–leader exchange relationships; PLLX) as drivers of ethical leadership. Across two studies involving male subordinates and leaders pertaining to 150 teams (Study 1) and 158 leader–follower dyads (Study 2) in the Republic of Korea Army, PLLX was found to mediate a positive relation between peer leaders' ethical leadership and focal team leaders' ethical leadership, while controlling for upper leaders' ethical behaviours. Moreover, this relation was moderated by focal leaders' organizational tenure but in opposite directions in the two studies: the relation between peer leaders' ethical leadership and focal leaders' ethical leadership through PLLX was stronger in Study 1 (vs. weaker in Study 2) when tenure was high.
