- Abstract
Ethical leaders are good conduct role models that employees identify with and try to emulate. Interest in this leadership style grew strongly in the first decade of this century, but even when its importance is recognized, empirical studies on the subject are not enough to understand its relationships with other variables. Hence, this work examines the influence of ethical leadership in conflict management, trust, and knowledge transfer within the context of the maquila export industry, a relevant sector for Mexican northern border economy. For this purpose, we conducted a quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional, descriptive, and correlational research, with non-probabilistic sampling and the adoption of a PLS structural equation model. The results indicate that ethical leadership and trust favorably impact knowledge transfer, while conflicts do not affect knowledge transfer and ethical leadership does not have influence over conflicts. These findings show some of the benefits of ethical leadership, in this case associated with trust and knowledge transfer, and also highlight that this type of leadership implies fairness and objectivity in dealing with team members, even when this may prove complex.
