INFLUENCE OF PERSONALITY ON WORKPLACE SPIRITUALITY

Journal Title: ICTACT Journal on Management Studies - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 3

Abstract

Despite the growing literature on personality and workplace spirituality, empirical studies on the influence of personality on workplace spirituality remain limited. The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship, if any, between personality traits and spirituality in the workplace as applicable to the Indian context. An individual with high degree of personality is expected to be more satisfied in work and likely to experience positive and significant degree of spirituality at the workplace. In view of the positive influences of personality on spirituality in the workplace, there is a potential need for organizations to develop the personality traits of employees which would create a spiritual climate and culture at the workplace and foster the workplace spirituality. The results of the study facilitate further insight to leaders and managers on the importance of personality towards increasing the workplace spirituality which would eventually provide many positive benefits to the organizations as well as individuals.
