Abstract:	V magistrskem delu preučujemo pomen etičnega vedenja managementa v javnem vrtcu ter njegovo povezanost z zaupanjem zaposlenih. Etični management vzgojno-izobraževalnih ustanov je posebej občutljivo področje, saj so odločitve vodstva tesno povezane s strokovnim delom vrtca, dobrobitjo otrok, kakovostjo dela strokovnih delavcev in pričakovanji staršev. V teoretičnem delu smo najprej opredelili temeljne pojme etike, organizacijske etike in etičnega managementa ter predstavili njihove posebnosti v javnem sektorju. Poseben poudarek namenimo etičnim načelom, ki usmerjajo ravnanje vodij v vrtcih – pravičnosti, poštenosti, odgovornosti, spoštovanju in skrbnosti – ter vlogi organizacijske kulture pri oblikovanju etično ustreznega vedenja. Sledi obravnava pomena zaupanja kot temeljnega elementa odnosov med zaposlenimi. Zaupanje se krepi skozi pravično obravnavo, transparentno odločanje, vključevanje zaposlenih v procese ter dosledno upoštevanje etičnih standardov. Raziskave poudarjajo, da etično vodstvo vpliva na višjo motivacijo zaposlenih, boljše sodelovanje in večjo povezanost s poslanstvom organizacije, medtem ko neetično ravnanje vodi v izgubo zaupanja, konflikte in zmanjšano kakovost dela. Empirični del temelji na raziskavi, izvedeni med zaposlenimi v izbranem javnem vrtcu. Rezultati raziskave kažejo, da zaposleni vodstvo dojemajo kot etično, spoštljivo in pravično, kar se odraža v visoki stopnji zaupanja ter pozitivnem delovnem vzdušju. Najvišje ocene so prejela področja – odprta komunikacija, poslušanje ter medsebojno zaupanje med zaposlenimi. Pri analizi po skupinah z različno delovno dobo so ugotovljene razlike pri zaznavanju transparentnosti odločanja in razporejanja nalog. Zaposleni so kot ključne dejavnike zaupanja izpostavili odprto komunikacijo, jasno razlago odločitev ter dosledno upoštevanje dogovorjenih pravil. Na podlagi rezultatov raziskave, smo oblikovali tudi možna priporočila za krepitev etičnega vodenja v vrtcu, med katerimi izstopajo večja vključenost zaposlenih v odločanje, povečanje obsega, etična usposabljanja ter krepitev notranjih mehanizmov za obravnavo etičnih dilem. Delo tako prispeva k boljšemu razumevanju pomena etičnega managementa v javnih vrtcih in ponuja usmeritve za nadaljnji razvoj zaupanja ter etične organizacijske kulture.

Title:	The influence of ethical management behaviour on strengthening the trust of employees in a public kindergarten
Abstract:	In this master’s thesis, we examine the importance of ethical conduct among management in a public kindergarten and its connection to employees’ trust. Ethical management in educational institutions is a particularly sensitive area, as leadership decisions are closely linked to the kindergarten’s professional work, children’s well-being, the quality of the professional staff’s performance, and parents’ expectations. In the theoretical part, we first define the fundamental concepts of ethics, organizational ethics, and ethical management, and present their specific characteristics in the public sector. Special emphasis is placed on the ethical principles that guide leaders’ behaviour in kindergartens—fairness, honesty, responsibility, respect, and care—and on the role of organizational culture in shaping ethically appropriate behaviour. This is followed by an examination of the significance of trust as a fundamental element of relationships among employees. Trust is strengthened through fair treatment, transparent decision-making, employee involvement in processes, and consistent adherence to ethical standards. Research highlights that ethical leadership promotes higher employee motivation, better cooperation, and stronger alignment with the organization’s mission, whereas unethical conduct leads to a loss of trust, conflicts, and reduced work quality. The empirical part is based on a study conducted among employees in a selected public kindergarten. The results show that employees perceive the leadership as ethical, respectful, and fair, which is reflected in a high level of trust and a positive working atmosphere. Open communication, attentive listening, and mutual trust among employees received the highest evaluations. An analysis of groups with varying lengths of service revealed differences in the perception of decision-making transparency and task allocation. Employees identified open communication, clear explanations of decisions, and consistent adherence to agreed rules as key factors of trust. Based on the research findings, we also formulated recommendations for strengthening ethical leadership in the kindergarten, including greater employee involvement in decision-making, an increased scope of ethical training, and the reinforcement of internal mechanisms for addressing ethical dilemmas. The thesis thus contributes to a better understanding of the significance of ethical management in public kindergartens and offers guidance for the further development of trust and an ethical organizational culture.
