Summary/Abstract: Purpose – The purpose of this research is to determine the mediating role of knowledge sharing in the effect of leadership styles on organizational citizenship of employees with the help of structural equation model for 755 academicians who teach at foundation and state universities in Istanbul. Design/methodology/approach – In this study, organizational citizenship as a dependent variable, leadership styles as an independent variable, and knowledge sharing as a mediating variable are discussed. The research is a relational screening model. The population is academics working at foundation and state universities in Istanbul, and the sample is 755 academics who voluntarily participated in the research. The scales used are organizational citizenship behavior, leadership styles, and knowledge sharing scales, in a five-point likert structure, for which Turkish validity and reliability studies were conducted. In the first stage, factors were successfully reduced as a result of Explanatory Factor Analysis (EFA).
