Abstract
In this study, the relationship between school principals’ ethical leadership behaviors and teachers’ organizational trust levels were examined. Sample of the study, which was designed in the correlational survey model, consists of 397 teachers working in two districts of Istanbul. Ethical Leadership Scale and Organizational Trust Scale were used throughout the study. Data obtained during the study were analyzed by arithmetic average, standard deviation, correlation analysis and regression analysis. According to the findings, teachers’ organizational trust, and their perceptions regarding ethical leadership behaviors of school principals were found to be at a high level. As a result of the correlation analysis, it was found that there was a moderately positive and statistically significant relationship between ethical leadership and organizational trust. On the other hand, it was determined that ethical leadership significantly predicted teachers’ organizational trust. The findings obtained were discussed in the light of the related literature and suggestions were presented.
