Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explore the individual perceptions about integrating spirituality in manage- ment and to assess the benefits of spirituality towards organizational performance. This paper focuses on the impact of spirituality in management for performance improvement.

Also it is noted that several individuals and organizations are attempting to modify their way of working to include spirituality in the workplace as well as in business.
