“…In light of a thorough review of the literature review, no analysis has been spotted concentrating upon managerial roles in and outside Turkiye in the way the study does. Although the close relationship between the dimensions of managerial roles stated in recent studies (Madanayake, 2014;Sandhu and Kulik, 2019;White, 2020) coincides with this study on a theoretical plateau, the managerial roles were based on the early period. This significantly increases the originality of the study.…”

“…However, he (2009) pinpointed several theoretical arguments in his new view as people, information, and action planes. Various researchers have recently studied the details of roles in various organizations, including educational institutions and educators (Fink, 2011;Lavigne, 2019;Sandhu and Kulik, 2019;White, 2020).

Educational researchers have recently focused on the relationships between various organizational variables. The managerial roles of the principals are also one of the issues discussed in this context. Because these roles are closely related to the school atmosphere and teachers' feelings. Current study examined the mediation of organizational climate in the relationship between the roles of principals and teachers' emotional labor. For this, a structural regression model designed by the authors was tested. Data were collected from 535 teachers working in elementary schools in Kahramanmaras (Turkiye) and analyzed with MPlus 8.3. The findings show statistically significant and positive correlations between managerial roles-organizational climate, organizational climate-deep acting, and organizational climate-genuine emotions. Surface acting has a statistically significant, negative correlation with genuine emotions, and no statistically significant correlation exists with other variables. The structural regression model shows that organizational climate predicted by managerial roles predicts deep acting and genuine emotions. However, surface acting is not predicted by the organizational climate in the model. According to these results, the fact that the principals fulfill their roles contributes to the climate in the schools and thus the teachers' feeling of deep and genuine emotions. It is expected that the study will make original contributions to the managerial roles revised approach and the approach's school/educational management framework. The authors suggest that scholars investigate the managerial roles of principals in their future studies by designing multi-level procedures with different variables.

Background In the dynamic realm of business, ethics serves as a critical compass, guiding the delineation between right and wrong actions. Gaining momentum as a focal point within organisational discourse, the concept of ethics has burgeoned into a cornerstone element of corporate identity and operations. Objectives This study aims to dissect the theoretical underpinnings of moral virtues—specifically wisdom, justice, courage, and restraint—and their intersection with the managerial profession and associated personality traits. We propose the extension of the Mintzberg model of managerial traits from the perspective of virtue ethics. Methods/Approach Employing a theoretical review methodology, this investigation traverses through each identified moral virtue, engaging with contemporary research and scholarly publications within the domain of virtue ethics. Results The analysis affirms that virtue ethics, with its emphasis on character and morality, is instrumental in shaping the framework for managerial conduct and decision-making. The exploration identifies a symbiotic relationship between managerial virtues within the Mintzberg model of managerial traits, highlighting how these elements collectively contribute to the effectiveness and ethical grounding of managerial practices. Conclusions The findings underscore the indispensability of moral virtues and specific personality traits in the cultivation of proficient and ethically oriented managerial professionals. The extended Mintzberg model can be a relevant starting point for a more detailed discussion regarding virtue ethics in a globalised economy.
