description Studies reveal that what employees want most in their jobs is a feeling of love and care and some connection between their work and their greater purpose in life. As individuals question the meaning of life and embrace the development of their inner selves, so do corporations and organizations. They perceive that their employees are collectively enjoying high morale at work; individually they are happier; they find greater motivation and personal reward in their work; and they are more effective and productive. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to investigate how entrepreneurs and senior executives define the role of spirituality in business management, how they apply it in their daily work, and what are the factors that give meaning and purpose to their work.

As individuals question the meaning of life and embrace the development of their inner selves, so do corporations and organizations.

Existen estudios que revelan que lo que los colaboradores desean más en sus trabajos es un sentimiento de amor y de cuidado y alguna conexión entre su trabajo y su propósito mayor en la vida. Según los individuos se preguntan el significado de la vida y abrazan el desarrollo de sus “yo” internos, así las corporaciones y organizaciones también lo hacen. Éstas perciben que sus empleados están disfrutando colectivamente de una moral alta en el trabajo; individualmente se ven más felices; encuentran mayor motivación y recompensa personal en su trabajo; y son más efectivos y productivos. Por consiguiente, el propósito del  estudio fue investigar cómo los empresarios y altos ejecutivos definen el rol de la espiritualidad en la administración de empresas, cómo la aplican en su cotidianidad en su trabajo y cuáles son los factores que le dan significado y propósito al mismo.
