It has come to the attention of the publisher that the article Amos S. Engelbrecht, Gardielle Heine and Bright Mahembe (2017) “Integrity, ethical leadership, trust and work engagement”, published in Leadership & Organization Development Journal, Vol. 38, No. 3, https://doi.org/10.1108/LODJ-11-2015-0237 did not reference two sources drawn upon. These were: Heine, G., “The Influence of Integrity and Ethical Leadership on Trust and Employee Work Engagement” (unpublished thesis: Stellenbosch University, 2013) and Engelbrecht, A.S, Heine, G. and Mahembe, B. (2014) “The influence of ethical leadership on trust and work engagement: an exploratory study”, SA Journal of Industrial Psychology, Vol. 40, No. 1, http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/sajip.v40i1.1210. The author guidelines for Leadership & Organization Development state that articles must be fully referenced. The authors sincerely apologise for this.
