Abstract

ABSTRACT Based on social learning theory , this study investigates whether psychological capital mediates the ethical leadership- work engagement link and the ethical leadership-job satisfaction link. Again, it tests whether moral identity moderates the relationship between ethical leadership and psychological capital. With data collected from 177 public servants in Malawi, this study’s findings reveal that psychological capital fully mediates the relationship between ethical leadership and work engagement while it partially mediates the ethical leadership-job satisfaction link. Furthermore, the results reveal that moral identity moderates the relationship between ethical leadership and psychological capital. The study has important implications for practice especially in human resource management in developing and adopting practices that promote work engagement and job satisfaction among employees.
