摘要

在管理研究中,尤其是在盎格鲁-撒克逊和亚洲背景下,工作中的灵性正日益引起人们的关注。然而,在德国的背景下,我们从科学研究中对工作中的灵性知之甚少,其他来源的发现和结果也很分散。使用混合方法,我们收集了关于雇主在工作中对精神的看法和德国工作场所具体的人力资源管理实践的初步发现。我们分析了日报和相关的最佳实践出版物,并在德国北部进行了小规模定性雇主调查。为了构建结果,我们提出了工作场所灵性的三个主要影响视角(劳动力多样性,员工需求和雇主能力)以及处理这三个视角的不同雇主立场,从避免信仰到基于信仰(Miller & Ewest, 2015)。在这三种观点和立场下,公司已经在不同的期望和认知下实施了不同的人力资源活动。一些德国组织已经通过与房间相关的工具、与工作时间相关的工具、与食物相关的提供以及促进多宗教环境中协调与合作的工具来满足需求。雇主对宗教和非宗教信仰的态度不同。虽然雇主通常认为公司里的非宗教信仰是积极的(信仰友好),但他们通常对工作中的宗教信仰持怀疑态度(避免信仰或信仰安全)。

An Exploratory Study of Spirituality in German Enterprises
Spirituality at work is increasingly attracting attention in management research, especially in the Anglo-Saxon and Asian contexts. However, for the German context, we know little about spirituality at work from scientific research, and findings and results from other sources are broadly scattered. Using a mixed-methods approach, we collect first findings on employer’s perception of spirituality at work and specific HRM practices in German workplaces. We analyse daily newspapers and related best-practice publications and conduct a small-scale qualitative employer survey in Northern Germany. To structure the results, we propose three main impact perspectives on spirituality in the workplace (workforce diversity, employee needs, and employer capabilities) as well as different employer stances in dealing with these three perspectives, from faith-avoiding to faith-based (Miller & Ewest, 2015). In all three perspectives and stances, companies already implement different HR activities under different expectations and perceptions. Some German organisations already address the needs perspective by room-related tools, working time-related tools, food-related offers, and instruments that facilitate coordination and cooperation in multi-religious settings. Employer stances differ concerning religious and non-religious spirituality. While employers view nonreligious spirituality in the company as generally positive (faith-friendly), they are often sceptical of religious spirituality at work (faith-avoiding or faith-safe).

期刊介绍: Management Revue - Socio-Economic Studies is an interdisciplinary European journal that undergoes peer review. It publishes qualitative and quantitative work, along with purely theoretical papers, contributing to the study of management, organization, and industrial relations. The journal welcomes contributions from various disciplines, including business and public administration, organizational behavior, economics, sociology, and psychology. Regular features include reviews of books relevant to management and organization studies. Special issues provide a unique perspective on specific research fields. Organized by selected guest editors, each special issue includes at least two overview articles from leaders in the field, along with at least three new empirical papers and up to ten book reviews related to the topic. The journal aims to offer in-depth insights into selected research topics, presenting potentially controversial perspectives, new theoretical insights, valuable empirical analysis, and brief reviews of key publications.
