Workplace Spirituality and Employee Attitudes within the Lodging Environment

This research examined the workplace spirituality concept and its relationship with employee variables, including intrinsic work satisfaction, job involvement, intention to quit, organizational based self-esteem, and organizational commitment, within the lodging setting. Workplace spirituality is a growing trend not only in the research community, but also in the corporate environment. Researchers sampled employees from two hotel management groups, one that actively promoted workplace spirituality within its organization and one that did not. The results of this study found a significant relationship between the presence of workplace spirituality and the employee variables being examined. There was also a significant difference examined between the two organizations as related to the presence of workplace spirituality.
