Abstract

It is impossible to overstate the role that ethical leadership plays in driving higher education institutions (HEIs) success in light of the rapid pace of change in the sector. This study analyzes the revolutionary potential of ethical leadership in higher education institutions and demonstrates its huge impact. We delve into faculty members' perceptions and descriptions of their own institutions' achievements and failures to examine the link between ethical leadership and organizational performance in HEIs. A quantitative cross-sectional survey was employed. The participants of the study were teaching faculty of higher educational Institutions of District Dera Ismail Khan Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Pakistan. Through surveys, 210 faculty members from HEIs provided the data for this study, which was then analyzed using SPSS-26. This study investigates how much ethical leadership practices have an impact on organizational performance in the setting of higher education. The findings shed important light on how faculty members view ethical leadership and its bearing on organizational success. The study's findings add to the existing body of information on ethical leadership in HEIs and have implications for leaders and administrators in developing a culture of ethical leadership to improve organizational performance.
