dc.description.abstractResearch on inclusion and inclusive leadership in the workplace is relatively recent, but has increased significantly. Because of this relative novelty, many antecedents and organizational context factors have not yet been explored and therefore current research responds to this. Drawing upon the social learning theory and climate for inclusion dimensions, this study examined the moderating role of a climate for inclusion in the relationship between inclusive role model behavior and inclusive leadership. The study has a quantitative, cross-sectional research design and the sample consisted of 172 respondents. The results show support for a moderating role of a climate with equitable employment practices, and contrary to what has been hypothesized, the results show support for a partially mediating role of climate for inclusion. When equitable employment practices are lacking in an organization, inclusive role models can compensate for this. Additionally, inclusive role models both directly affect inclusive leadership behavior among lower-level leaders and influence the organizational climate that in its place encourages inclusive leadership behavior among lower-level leaders. The results highlight the importance of exemplary role models in the organization when it comes to inclusion.
