Further, the study determined the influence of ethical leadership, and organizational harmony on two dimensions of employee voice behavior. This articles also test the mediating role of organizational harmony in the relationship between ethical leadership and employee voice behavior. Although these interrelations are very important for enhancing employee voice behavior, few empirical studies analyze these relationship together.
