Abstract

Spirituality in organizations has been used as a management tool, and such studies show that its practice results, in a way, in benefits in the work environment. For a company to be successful, the example needs to come from the managers, at first, through the practice of the company's mission and vision. Therefore, this study aims to analyze how the concept of Spirituality can be used as a strategic tool in the corporate world. To this end, we chose to present a case study whose company is a world leader in retail, through the analysis of a work that presents basic themes, to overcome the existing barrier between management and spirituality. The data collected showed that companies that, in some way, seek to insert spirituality in the discussion agenda of their management processes do so as a guiding idea for their presence and performance in the market because they understand that what determines the meaning of work is the search for building a better world.
