| dc.description.abstract | The government of Uganda plays a critical role in enabling corporate sustainability goals within ministries. However, corporate sustainability is still a worry among line Ministries and number of them have been merged since they are no longer operational given the less work done given and few or no staff (Parliament of Uganda, 2022). This study examined the relationship between stakeholder management, ethical leadership and corporate sustainability among line ministries in Uganda. This study was based on the objectives: to examine the relationship between stakeholder management and corporate sustainability, the relationship between ethical leadership and corporate sustainability and the combined power of stakeholder management and ethical leadership on corporate sustainability. A cross sectional research design was used with a sample size of 30 ministries from which 10 respondents were targeted leading to 300 respondents. 240 responded indicating a response rate of 80%. The data was analyzed using SPSS v23 and results presented based on the study objectives. Findings revealed a significant positive relationship between stakeholder management and corporate sustainability, and also a significant positive relationship between ethical leadership and corporate sustainability. Overall stakeholder management and ethical leadership explain 79.3% of the variance in corporate sustainability among line ministries in Uganda. In addition, ethical leadership was found a stronger predictor of sustainability given by 65.2% compared to stakeholder management given by 28%. Therefore, the study recommended that ethical leadership practices such as fairness, people orientation, power sharing and moral behavior should be emphasized among leaders in order to attain the desired level of corporate sustainability among line ministries in Uganda. Further studies may also be conducted on other factors which explains the remaining 20.7% of the variance in corporate sustainability among line ministries in Uganda. | |
