Chapter Chapter 10 in Leading Spiritually, 2014, pp 167-178 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Spirituality in organizations has been described in several ways. The first way describes spiritual or religious practices performed in business settings, such as meditation or group prayer. A second way describes spiritual values or beliefs held by leaders in an organization or behaviors of a spiritual leader (sometimes referred to as spiritual leadership). A third way is described as the ways in which spiritual or religious values or beliefs are expressed in the mission and practices of an organization. A fourth way has also been described as the way spirituality is reflected in organization structure and in organizational policies. Finally, it has been described as the openness of organization to organization members practicing various spiritual or religious practices while at work in the organization.
