Abstract: The paper aims to present some defining aspects regarding the managerial ethics customized to the specifics of institutions in the field of national defence and security, aspects that emerged from an extensive study that investigated the current and prospective state of leadership science in the military. The review of the main types of ethics, of the representative schools and of the fundamental principles of ethics is the foundation of the investigative approach and is meant to recall the concepts that govern this field and to ensure the transition to practical aspects of ethics in the military organization. It exemplifies a series of activities specific to the military field that require special attention from the perspective of applying the fundamental principles of ethics, activities to which the military body pays special attention due to the way they are perceived by civil society. The presentation of the results of the study allows an x-ray of the way in which ethical management is perceived at different hierarchical levels, depending on the managerial experience gained, but also depending on the military specialization. Moreover, the results can foreshadow the necessary measures to be taken in what regards ethical management specific to the military field.
