This research examines the links between ethical leadership, career expansion, and creative accomplishment in the banking industry of Lagos, Nigeria. A survey consisting of 256 participants from the Lagos banking industry was conducted, with a 5-point Likert scale to investigate 15 criteria concerning ethical leadership, profession increase, and innovative efficiency. Correlation research and linear regression were utilized to analyze the associations and potential mediation. This research confirms there is a noticeable positive linkage between ethical leadership and both career enhancement and creative performance. What's more, linear regression assessment verified these positive associations. A hierarchical regression approach gave testimony that career advancement acts as a part mediator, elucidating the relation between ethical leadership and inventive performance.
