Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data and Pearson correlation tests were used in SPSS software and structural equation modeling in AMOS software. The results showed that there is a negative significant relationship between human dignity management and organizational virtue with organizational cynicism and there is a positive significant relationship between human dignity management and organizational virtue. Based on the results of the research model, it was found that human dignity management had a significant negative effect on organizational skepticism and organizational virtue, and human dignity management had a significant positive effect on organizational virtue.
