The main aim of the present study is to discover whether the managers’ self-evaluations of their ethical leadership style are associated with their assessments of the ethical organisational culture (measured with an eight-dimensional Corporate Ethical Virtues-model). It aims to hypothesise that the more ethical the managers evaluate their own leadership style to be, the higher evaluations they give on the ethical culture of their organisation. The underlying assumption is that ethical managers can enhance the ethical culture by behaving in accordance with their own values.
