Workplace spirituality

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in Management Mumbo-Jumbo, 2006, pp 155-156 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract One hundred years ago a German polymath called Weber wrote a treatise that is debated to this day. He proposed that religious beliefs endorsed and fed the spirit of capitalism. Salvation comes through work. All work is for God’s glory. And wealth, one consequence of hard work, is a sign of God’s grace. The rich are the chosen, the poor the damned.
