Spirituality and Management
Laszlo Zsolnai
The electrical resistivity of thin silver [1] and gold [2] films deposited at room temperature on glass and silicon substrates was previously studied mainly with respect to the thickness dependence. The results were explained with the help of the so-called scattering hypothesis where grain boundary scattering is the decisive process for polycrystalline films while surface scattering becomes effective for single-crystal films, in particular at the metal/silicon transition.

Spirituality as the Context for Leadership
Peter Pruzan
The electrical resistivity of thin silver [1] and gold [2] films deposited at room temperature on glass and silicon substrates was previously studied mainly with respect to the thickness dependence. The results were explained with the help of the so-called scattering hypothesis where grain boundary scattering is the decisive process for polycrystalline films while surface scattering becomes effective for single-crystal films, in particular at the metal/silicon transition.

Spirit-Centered, Rajashi Leadership
S. K. Chakraborty
The prose of technologically oriented world of organizations and its management being narrowly efficient is not effective in a larger scale. It is because of, among other reasons, lack of poetry playing an important role in human life. If an employee, a manager, a leader is repeatedly called to based his/her conduct on integrity he/she has not only acts the same way he/she speaks but also to be the same person in his/her workplace he/she is outside it. Spirituality in its proper shape is called recently to bridge a gap between the inside and outside worlds in the context of business and managerial activities. Although some of ‘spiritual’ techniques are suspicious (new age, magical techniques, sects etc.) there are grounded believes worthy to be taken into account seriously as components of an endfull treatment of a human being: “Act so that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in that of another, always as an end and never as a means only.” (Kant, 1969, p.44). The endfull treatment call also for tolerance and acceptance of diversity. Finally, the challenge of integrity must not be limited to the internal stakeholders of a company, external stakeholders have also their spiritual side.

The Birth of Spiritual Economics
Robert Allinson
The electrical resistivity of thin silver [1] and gold [2] films deposited at room temperature on glass and silicon substrates was previously studied mainly with respect to the thickness dependence. The results were explained with the help of the so-called scattering hypothesis where grain boundary scattering is the decisive process for polycrystalline films while surface scattering becomes effective for single-crystal films, in particular at the metal/silicon transition.

Spiritual Motivation in Management
Alpar Losoncz
We intended to formulate a type of spirituality against which man could measure himself. Spirituality refers to the “healing power” that awakens man from his indifference toward others and makes him responsive in all of her/his manifestations. Spirituality is connected to the attestation of self-identity. In light of the constellation of self within the context of spirituality, we proposed themes on spirituality concerning management in particular. We have noted especially the spiritual dimension of values, cognition, corporate goals, and the position of management related to the broader social and natural environment. The spiritual engagement of management is spontaneously established. The indispensable moments of management are strategic rationality, coordination processes, resolving social dilemmas inside the firm, and influencing the beliefs of members of the firm. Recognizing the detrimental effects of unfettered strategic rationality, our conclusion is that spiritual motivation is to be located in the contempt of the intrinsic motivation-field. The difficulties management confronts are manifest in the trade-off policy created between extrinsic and intrinsic motivations.

Beyond the Prose of Business
Wojciech W. Gasparski
The prose of technologically oriented world of organizations and its management being narrowly efficient is not effective in a larger scale. It is because of, among other reasons, lack of poetry playing an important role in human life. If an employee, a manager, a leader is repeatedly called to based his/her conduct on integrity he/she has not only acts the same way he/she speaks but also to be the same person in his/her workplace he/she is outside it. Spirituality in its proper shape is called recently to bridge a gap between the inside and outside worlds in the context of business and managerial activities.
