- Abstract:
- In recent years, researchers have conducted substantial explorations of front factors and the mechanism of corporate social responsibility, among which impacts of ethical leadership on corporate social responsibility have been heatedly discussed. Based on existing literatures, this paper investigates the mediating effects of organizational ethical culture and moderating effects of stakeholder pressure and power distance with the help of the moderated-mediation model of ethical leadership’s effects on corporate social responsibility. The empirical results show that organizational ethical culture partially mediates ethical leadership and corporate social responsibility, and that stakeholder pressure and power distance have negative and positive moderating effects respectively on ethic leadership and organizational ethic culture. The paper clearly illustrates the mechanism of ethical leadership’s influences on corporate social responsibility, and highlights the significance of ethics and culture for enterprises’ assuming social responsibility so as to benefit government policy-making and supervision and encourage enterprises’ responsible practices.
