The study was carried out within the management of Lembaga Perkreditan Desa (LPD) across Bali. In 2016, there were 1433 LPD units in Bali; however, 177 were inactive, leaving 1256 operational units across nine districts/cities. Sampling was determined using the Slovin formula with 9% precision, resulting in 34 sampled LPDs. The selection of samples within each district or city employed a stratified proportional random sampling technique. Respondents included LPD leaders, secretaries, and treasurers from each sampled unit, yielding a total of 102 participants. Data were gathered through interviews using structured questionnaires and processed with the SmartPLS 3.0 software. Findings indicate that ethical behavior forms an integral aspect of entrepreneurial leadership and significantly enhances LPD performance. The integration of ethical conduct with entrepreneurial leadership was shown to substantially strengthen organizational outcomes, underscoring the critical role of ethical entrepreneurial leadership in effective management.
