Ethical leadership and ethical voice in the military context a scoping review
Main Article Content
Abstract
Ethical leadership is positively associated with leader effectiveness and team performance, shaping how ethical standards are recognized and applied by leaders. In this sense, the military context is a relevant setting for this study, as it demands strict compliance with institutional rules and regulations. However, most research on ethical leadership focuses on civilian organizations, highlighting a gap in studies addressing military contexts. This scoping review aims to map and analyze theoretical and empirical evidence on the influence of ethical leadership on ethical voice in the military context, drawing on the Web of Science database. The review followed the Joanna Briggs Institute Methodological Manual and the PRISMA-ScR protocol. After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria via the Rayyan system, 42 articles were selected from 3,471 identified studies. Metadata analysis was conducted using VOSviewer software, enabling the construction of keyword co-occurrence and author co-citation networks. The findings indicate a lack of research on this topic in Brazil, particularly within the military context. The review concludes that there are opportunities to expand knowledge on ethical leadership and to explore emerging perspectives, such as ethical voice, thus reinforcing the primary contribution of this study.
