	abstract = {This study examines the effect of leader moral development on the organization{\textquoteright}s ethical climate and employee attitudes. Results indicate that the relationship between leader moral development and ethical climate is moderated by two factors: the extent to which the leader utilizes his or her cognitive moral development (i.e., capacity for ethical reasoning), and the age of the organization. Specifically, the influence of the leader{\textquoteright}s moral development was stronger for high utilizing leaders, those whose moral actions were consistent with their moral reasoning. Additionally, the influence of the leader{\textquoteright}s moral development was stronger in younger organizations. Finally, as predicted, congruence between the leader{\textquoteright}s moral development and the employee{\textquoteright}s moral development was positively associated with job satisfaction and organizational commitment and negatively associated with turnover intentions.},
