ETHICS OF THE WORKPLACE AND VALUE-BASED LEADERSHIP: HOW TO GET EMPLOYEES TO ACT ETHICALLY
Abstract
This study aims to examine the effect of clarity of value and consistency dimensions on
value-based leadership (VBL) in Karimun Regency. The research method used is a
survey using questionnaires as a data collection instrument. The respondents in this
study were employees of Karimun Regency who were randomly selected. The results
showed that value clarity had a positive influence on VBL, although not significantly.
Meanwhile, consistency has an insignificant positive influence on VBL. Suggestions that
can be made to increase clarity of values and build an organizational culture conducive
to implementing VBL include improving communication, education, training,
performance appraisal, and examples from organizational leaders and managers. By
implementing these suggestions, it is expected that the organization can create a work
environment that is based on strong values and strengthens the commitment of
organizational members to organizational goals.
