Workplace spirituality: Successful mantra for modern organization

Abstract

Spirituality in the workplace has been widely discussed over the past few decades and is a much disputed field of inquiry that is gaining interest from practitioners and scholars. Previously, workplace was portrayed as a place where task fulfillment goals were of paramount importance. Over time, the definition of workplace has grown to include different geographical and psychological aspects. Nowadays, organizations are suffering from loss of business, strained customer relationships, delayed contracts and employee exits. Spirituality has now become an important tool for dealing with stress related problems and solving business issues. The purpose of this case study is to gain a better understanding of the direction in which this field of study is evolving and to gain a better understanding of the application of spirituality in the workplace and the role of HR in implementation.
