Abstract

Organizational integrity, understood as the set of values, practices, and governance mechanisms that promote ethical behavior within organizations, has become a central yet conceptually ambiguous notion in management research. While interest in integrity has grown exponentially, the literature remains fragmented across disciplines and is often conflated with related notions such as compliance, corporate responsibility, or ethical culture. This dispersion limits theoretical consolidation and creates practical challenges for organizations seeking to reconcile ethical accountability with performance imperatives in increasingly digital and globalized contexts. To address this gap, we conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of 1741 peer-reviewed publications indexed in Scopus and Web of Science over the past 80 years. Combining co-citation analysis and bibliographic coupling, and following extensive data cleaning to ensure robustness, the study maps the intellectual and thematic structure of the field. Results reveal two foundational dimensions ethics and performance and four structured research clusters: ethical leadership and strategic alignment, public regulation and professional ethics, organizational behavior and ethical paradoxes, and information management and digital ethics. By clarifying the intellectual foundations of organizational integrity, identifying its main thematic structures, and highlighting its paradoxes, this study provides both a conceptual synthesis and a methodological contribution. It advances academic debates by situating integrity as a systemic and contested construct, while also offering practical insights for ethics-driven leadership, governance, and organizational transformation.
