Abstract: Workplace spirituality is the emotional attachment of the employee to the task or the organisation from a position of truth and integrity. This paper theoretically conceptualises workplace spirituality into the dimensions of: 1) deep meaning in work; 2) social connectedness; 3) adherence to higher-level goals. Then, the theoretical model is tested empirically using a sample of 201 Sri Lankan managers and executives. Deploying structural equations modelling and multiple regression, we find that deep meaning in work significantly predicts both organisational commitment, and organisational citizenship. Self-efficacy significantly moderates the social connectedness-job performance relationship. Confident employees who are socially connected with their peers display superior performance in comparison to their less self-efficacious counterparts.
