Abstract
Background and Objective: Spiritual management has been long considered as one of the indigenous management styles inspired from the Iranian civilization and of Islam. On the other hand, organizational performance and organizational innovation are also important organizational variables. Therefore, this study attempted to determine the relationship between spiritual management and organizational innovation and organizational performance of nurses.
Methods: The present study is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-correlational in terms of method. The statistical population of the study consisted of all nurses in Khoy (n=500), Iran. In accordance with Morgan's table, 217 nurses were selected as the sample size using stratified sampling method. The instruments used for data collection included three questionnaires: Budagi Spiritual Management, Organizational Performance of Hersey and Gold Smith and Organizational Innovation of Wang and Ahmed. The validity of the questionnaires was approved by the relevant field experts. Reliability of the questionnaire was also examined using Cronbach's alpha and found to be 0.94, 0.89, and 0.89 respectively. Pearson correlation coefficient and multivariate regression were used for data analysis. In this study, all ethical considerations were observed and no conflict of interest was reported by the author.
Results: The relationship between structural (r=0.175, P=0.007) and behavioral (r=0.606, P=0.001) dimensions of spiritual management and organizational performance and between structural (r=0.455 and P=0.001), behavioral (r=0.628, P=0.001) and contextual (r=0.297, P=0.001) dimensions of spiritual management and organizational innovation. There was also a significant relationship between spiritual management and organizational innovation (r=0.520, P=0.001) as well as spiritual management and organizational performance (r=0.228, P=0.001). Spiritual management could predict 27% of the variance in organizational innovation component (P=0.001) and 8% of the variance in organizational performance (P=0.001).
Conclusion: It can be concluded that paying attention to spiritual management in hospitals and medical centers can be of great importance in improving organizational performance as well as enhancing organizational innovation.
