The article examines how one's worldview of spirituality might affect the way in which management is understood and taught. It develops a framework for understanding different conceptions of spirituality, including traditional religious forms of it. Using this framework, it then explores some of the implications that different views of spirituality may have for managerial practice and education. Employees should be treated with respect and are entitled to a voice and stake in the product of their labors because they matter, not because it will necessarily increase the bottom line. Customers' interests should drive the design and delivery of products and services, not merely to increase market share but to more effectively serve them. Community members are invited to join the decision-making process because the business realizes a shared destiny with its neighbors. This is not to merely buy their political support; however, true social responsibility may elicit an outpouring of community support. Investors remain key participants in the spiritualist model, but their material investment grants them no special or higher claim on the corporate outcomes. |
