The present research is a correlational-analytical study in terms of applied purpose. The statistical sample size is 196 people. Data analysis was performed using structural equations through smartpls3 software. Findings showed that knowledge strategies have an effect on organizational performance with the mediating role of ethical leadership. According to the software output, the probability statistic for the ethical leadership mediator variable is 8.475, which is greater than the critical value of the absolute value of 1.96. System-based strategies affect organizational performance by mediating the role of ethical leadership. According to the software output, the probability statistic for the mediating variable of moral leadership is 7.729. Human-centered strategies affect organizational performance by mediating the role of ethical leadership. According to the software output, the probability statistics for the ethical leadership mediator variable is equal to 9.075. In the health system as a knowledge-based organization, managers must plan to implement a system to evaluate the desired knowledge performance. On the other hand, ethical leaders use their potential capacities and abilities through the application of knowledge among employees to achieve organizational goals by establishing two-way communication with employees, and motivating them and placing rewards and punishments for employees in performing organizational tasks and activities.
