Two decades ago the term “spirituality in the workplace” would have been considered an oxymoron, for spirituality was thought to be a private matter whose proper place was in one’s mind and heart and, perhaps, in church. But today the association between spirituality and work is a cutting edge phenomenon not only in faith based organizations but in for-profit businesses and corporations around the world.
Based on the recognition of the three dimensional nature of the person (body, mind, spirit), and on the distinction between spirituality and religion (the former having no particular set of beliefs or practices), business leaders have begun to realize that nurturing the whole person in a work setting positively influences engagement, productivity, retention, and morale, and that it makes their organization attractive to potential associates.
