The project of life: Generalizing spiritual theory for applied project management research and the interconnections

Prabhakar, Guru Prakash

Abstract

This is an inter-disciplinary systemic research work. This work is not an inter-religion comparison and attempts to establish a relationship between the disciplines of project management and spirituality. In doing so the literature review was conducted followed by preparation of a research questionnaire designed to measure the spiritual consciousness quotient (SCQ) of an individual. This research based on grounded theory is done with a view to aid in the selection process of project team members & project managers. Collection of data from spiritual & religious leaders, people who do projects for Church, not-for-profit organizations etc in England and Europe is the next phase. This paper presents the literature review, research need, hypothesis, and research methodology to gather inputs from the academic community.
