Abstract
This chapter provides a retrospective view of the field of management from the perspective of a management scholar who has worked with MBA students and with executives on the integration of faith and spirituality in the workplace. Andre Delbecq has also been active in the Academy of Management and reflects on the evolution of the academy’s acceptance of the new field of “management, spirituality, and religion.” This chapter concludes with a vision for where the field may be going next as leaders cope with ever-increasing complexity and the role that spiritual and religious wisdom may play in leadership and organizational development.
