Ethical leadership is forwarded as a leadership style that leads subordinates to ethical decision making and ethical behaviors. It was hypothesized that perception of ethical leadership would lead to impression management behaviors by subordinates. The study utilized the manipulative function of impression management, which was presenting oneself in a positive light, in order to be positively evaluated by others. Using revised ethical leadership scale and impression management scale, through a survey (N=176), in private for-profit schools across Islamabad. It was found that when subordinates strongly perceived school principals as ethical leaders, it significantly increased their impression management behaviors. The effect of time spent with the supervisor was found to be insignificant. The findings suggested that the effect of ethical leadership was not always positive on subordinates’ behavior. The results and their implication were discussed for better understanding of impression management behaviors in the organization, along with the limitations and future directions.
