Examining the Relationship Between Teachers' Organizational Spirituality and Their Perceptions of Job Performance

This study aims to examine the relationship between teachers' perceptions of organizational spirituality and their job performance. The sample of the study consisted of 728 teachers working in high schools in the central districts of Erzurum province, who were selected by stratified proportional sampling method. The data of the research were collected by the "Workplace Spirituality Scale" and the "Teacher Job Performance Scale”. Descriptive statistics, correlation and multiple regression analysis were used in the analysis of the research data. In the study, it was determined that there was a moderate positive and significant relationship between teachers' perceptions of organizational spirituality and their job performance. It was determined that organizational spirituality sub-dimensions (job passion, mysterious experience, sense of community) significantly predicted job performance. In the study, it was determined that female teachers performed more task performance than males. It was found that married teachers have a higher perception of organizational spirituality compared to single teachers. It has been found that experienced teachers show more adaptive performance compared to teachers with lower seniority. Finally, it was determined that teachers in Anatolian and science-social sciences high schools showed more 'adaptive performance' than teachers in religious vocational and vocational technical high schools.
