Analysis of Effective Factors on Organizational Spirituality

Spirituality is a very broad concept that everyone has a different interpretation from it due to his beliefs, faiths and personal values. Some of the scientists believe in religion oriented for spirituality, but others believe that spirituality has no relation with religion and it is very wider than it. Since in our Iranian community, spiritual is religion based and the teachings of Islam make the spirituality, so the main objective of this study is analyzing the factors affecting organizational spirituality according to the national and religious patterns. The present study method is descriptive-correlation. Population includes all employees of Yazd government selected organizations which 198 of them selected as a statistical sample on the basis of formula Cochran and in stratified method. Questionnaire is used for collecting data, for analyzing the data Bartlett test, KMO and structural equation method was used.
