THE MODERATING ROLE OF POWER CULTURE IN THE EFFECT OF DARK LEADERSHIP ON ORGANIZATIONAL ETHICAL CLIMATE

Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine whether power culture plays a moderating role in the relationship of dark leadership with organizational ethical climate. The research was carried out in various 4 and 5 star hotel enterprises in the four metropolis of Turkey (İstanbul, Ankara, İzmir and Adana). Within the scope of the research, 794 surveys obtained from hotel employees were used. According to the research results; paranoid leadership (B = -0.415; p <0.05), narcissistic leadership (B = -0.059; p <0.05), coercive leadership (B = -0.097; p <0.05) and passive-aggressive leadership (B) = -0.069; p <0.05), which are the sub-dimensions of dark leadership, all have a negative effect on organizational ethical climate. However, power culture has been shown to play a moderating role in the effect of paranoid and passive-aggressive leadership on ethical climate.

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, karanlık liderliğin örgütsel etik iklim ile ilişkisinde güç kültürünün düzenleyici bir rol üstlenip üstlenmediğini belirlemektir. Araştırma, Türkiye’nin dört büyük ili olan İstanbul, Ankara, İzmir ve Adana’da faaliyet gösteren 4 ve 5 yıldızlı otel işletmelerinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma kapsamında otel çalışanlarından elde edilen 794 anket kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre; karanlık liderliğin alt boyutları olan paranoyak liderlik (B=-0,415; p<0.05), narsis liderlik (B=-0,059; p<0.05), zorlayıcı liderlik (B=-0,097; p<0.05) ve pasif-agresif liderliğin (B=-0,069; p<0.05) tümü, örgütsel etik iklim üzerinde negatif bir etkiye sahiptir. Bununla birlikte paranoyak liderlik ve pasif agresif liderliğin etik iklim üzerine etkisinde güç kültürünün, düzenleyici bir etkiye sahip olduğu görülmüştür.
