The ultimate aim of any modern corporate is growth with profit maximization. Growth is the first and foremost characteristic of nature and its products which include modern societies with all their industrial, agricultural and service sectors and above all the research organizations to cater to the needs of primary, secondary and tertiary sectors. Governed by the laws of the universe and nature, societies, markets and above all human life are in the constant churn of development in the realm of creativity and innovativeness.

 
 
 

Organizational transformation begins with personal transformation. The desire for spirituality in the workplace is a natural extension of the current tendency of adults to use spirituality to get through the challenges of their everyday lives.The 21st Century faces unseen challenges, poses more pressure and puts in high demands for success, both at the personal and organizational levels. Issues like ethical behavior, norms in the workplace, accountability, customs and social values, and the competing interests are becoming more and more important. The current challenges of this century definitely call for personal and organizational transformations.

Sean Voisen, Vice-President of Operations for the eLuminate Consulting Group, defines "Sprituality at Work" as, "Allowing every member of an organization the time and resources to explore his or her own true self - desires, passions, ideas and purpose - and the freedom to express this true self in a more authentic manner." He further elaborates the concept as a means of transforming a business into something much more than a business; it means transforming it into a life-long learning community. The crux is that organizational transformation begins with personal transformation.
