Abstract:A conceptual model is proposed for better understanding of processes enabling ethical leadership (henceforth as: e-l-ship.) neglected by the literature. The role of solitude as antecedent is explored, whereby its selective utilization focuses inner directionality (herein as: dirnty.) toward growing authentic executive awareness as a moral person and a manager, allowing an integration btw. inner and outer dirnty. toward e-l-ship. and resulting decision making processes with an impact on others' perceptions of leader authentic ethical leadership (as: a-e-l-ship). Thus, it is proposed that utilization of solitude positively predicts executive-level a-e-l-ship. action and in turn, ethical decision making perceived integrity and fairness. Also, two moderators are proposed: i. the executive's ability for moral reasoning and a motivation for socialized power.
