This paper presents the results of a study that attempted to explain how ethical leaders can influence the development and sustainability of an ethical organizational culture. The results showed that this influence can be explained by associating the characteristic behavior of ethical leaders with the implementation of the primary mechanisms of embedding with an ethical perspective, an approach that has been scarcely explored and with limited application in the context of organizational ethics. These results were obtained through the design of a model that represents how primary mechanisms support the existence of a set of characteristics that enable the existence of an ethical organizational culture. This model was contrasted with reality through a case study at the Institute for Blind and Deaf Children of Valle del Cauca, Colombia. It is concluded that there is a variety of behaviors, decisions, interests, attitudes, and ways of thinking and reacting-characteristic of an ethical leader-through which they can transmit messages to the organizational culture, capable of influencing the ethical behavior of their collaborators.

Palavras-chave : Ethical leadership; ethical organizational culture; primary mechanisms of embedding; organizational ethics; ethical organizational behavior.
