Spiritual Leadership In Modern Organization: A Study Based On Bibliometric Analysis

Abstract

Researchers and practitioners, offers a promising avenue toward more meaningful and productive work environments. This leadership approach revolves around aligning a leader’s spiritual values with organizational goals, inspiring purpose in followers, and enhancing performance. Despite a growing body of research, the scholarly understanding of spiritual leadership remains fragmented and lacks coherence. Subjective review methods often impede a comprehensive grasp of objective insights and hinder the establishment of a clear research path. To bridge this gap, our study pioneers a combined bibliometric and thematic analysis approach, examining 100 high-quality papers from 2010 to 2021. By unraveling the web of citations, shared references, and recurring keywords, we illuminate influential voices, landmark publications, and key contributors, creating a comprehensive con ceptual framework. Our analysis identifies 2 to 3 core thematic clusters, providing a roadmap for future research and enhancing the practical application of spiritual leadership in organizations. This study contributes to theoretical and managerial domains, offering nuanced insights and empowering further exploration in this impactful field, emphasizing the role of spiritual leadership in fostering a profound connection to organizational values.
