Abstract


This study examines the role of knowledge sharing (KS) as the mediating variable for ethical leadership (EL) and organizational innovation (OI). Based on the theory, data were collected from 104 participants and 75 participants gave valid responses from one private university in Jakarta, Indonesia. The results show that KS partially mediates the relationship between EI and OI.
