Abstract Leadership voice-taking behavior has become a key force driving enterprise innovation in an organization’s operation environment where uncertainty has increased dramatically. In this paper, by extracting the Confucian ethical elements and institutional elements behind the leadership voice-taking behavior of Emperor Taizong of Tang in Zhen Guan Zheng Yao, the influence of Confucian ethics and institution on the leadership voice-taking behavior is extracted from the perspective of the leader. The generation mechanism of the leadership voice-taking behavior is explored in Chinese native context. The theoretical“black box”of the internal relationship and function process between leadership voice-taking behavior and employee voice behavior is opened. This research constructs the generation mechanism of the leadership voice-taking behavior in Chinese native enterprise under the background of Confucian culture and corrects the research framework and analytical approach of“psychological motivation-behavior model-performance”that is commonly used in organizational behavior. The research places the Confucian ethical elements in the Chinese context at the core of the leadership voice-taking behavior and finds the modern values and function of the Confucian ethical elements in the organizational leadership activities.
