Spiritual leadership

Spiritual leadership: A major proposition of spiritual leadership theory is that spiritual leadership is necessary for the transformation to and continued success of learning organizations.


  1. Creating a vision wherein organization members experience a sense of calling in that their life has meaning and makes a difference;
  2. Establishing a social/organizational culture based on altruistic love whereby leaders and followers have genuine care, concern, and appreciation for both self and others, thereby producing a sense of membership and feeling understood and appreciated.
