In this short piece it is proposed that workplace spirituality implemented through spiritual leadership can serve as a model for public administration. Given the emerging research on public service motivation and the revelation that public sector employees are more altruistically motivated and spiritual in terms of compassion for others, the experience of interconnectedness, life’s meaning, and a calling to serve others, it seems logical to adopt a leadership model for public administration that reinforces these spiritual qualities to enable public sector leaders to more effectively deal with the daunting challenges they face in an increasingly unstable, chaotic, and frenzied task environment.
