Spirituality in the Workplace and Psychological Well-being: What can
existing psychological theories tell us?
Spirituality in the workplace is generally conceived as comprising four important dimensions: i) integration of work and self; ii) sense of meaning at work; iii) self- transcendence; and iv) growth of the inner (spiritual) self, which are predictive of individual wellbeing. To date, little attempt has been made to link this emergent literature with a large literature on occupational stress and wellbeing. With parsimony and practicality in mind, we draw on existing theories in order to understand how the dimensions of spirituality in the workplace affect the psychological health of individuals in today’s workplaces.
Conservation of resources theory (Hobfoll, 1988) takes an interesting perspective, wherein the 4 dimensions of spirituality in the workplace provide important resources which help to bu $ er against the e $ ects of stress on the individual. Drawing on Self-determination theory (SDT) (Deci & Ryan, 2000), we propose that the dimensions of workplace spirituality help individuals to satisfy three important psychological need s (mastery, relatedness, autonomy) as well as realize their full potential, which SDT recognizes as essential for well-being. Finally, we suggest that Warr (2007) provides an interesting perspective of psychological well-being at work which builds on some of the areas outlined in SDT, but takes other needs, such as self-integration, into account. We contend that each of these frameworks can provide researchers and practitioners with important insights into the relationship between spirituality in the workplace and psychological health. Further, two other phenomena (person-organization " t and spillover) which have received substantial attention in the organizational literature, but which have only recently been applied to workplace spirituality, will be discussed. We conclude by outlining a research agenda that builds on this framework, as well as the key implications for developing psychologically healthy workplaces.
