Spiritual leadership
Defining spiritual leadership
Another adaptation is Spiritual Leadership which has come about as result of more recent developments which have looked at workplace ethics and positive psychology and the move towards striving for changed attitudes to work that will result in a more positive experience both within and out of work. Spiritual leadership attempts to address some of the stress-related issues which are costing companies a fortune every year. Apparently if we try to connect to our spiritual side then we will be happier and healthier and encourage this in our workforce.
In order for this to work properly in a business then the company must provide altruistic love - which basically means giving trust, respect and being honest with its workforce and then this will be returned. While not a bad idea - is it practical? This is not that dissimilar to Authentic leadership....which is our final destination...
