| Abstract | This study addresses three questions: 1) What is spirituality in the workplace? 2) How does spirituality relate to organizational citizenship behavior? 3) What is the underlying mechanism through which a leader motivates followers? I answer these questions by: 1) creating and cross-validating a new scale of spirituality in the workplace; 2) providing theoretical underpinnings of spirituality in the workplace as a new dispositional antecedent to organizational citizenship behavior and empirically testing the relationship; and 3) suggesting that transcendental leadership is both directly related to organizational citizenship behavior and indirectly through the mediator of spirituality in the workplace, an underlying mechanism through which a leader motivates followers. Using structural equation modeling to analyze survey data collected from 2232 individuals, I find a partial mediation model exists among three constructs: transcendental leadership, spirituality in the workplace, and organizational citizenship behavior. |
