Abstract
The study is focused on identification of spiritual factors in entrepreneurship and management. The author uses Weber’s thesis as a starting point for the processing of general spiritual concepts which have a major impact on the emergence, development and maintenance of the economic environment, business and management. The clarification of a fundamental understanding of the phenomenon of spirituality is followed by a description of spiritual factors in entrepreneurial and managerial activities looking for a “new spirit of capitalism” today. The practical part is devoted to provision of a proof of spiritual influences on business and economic developments in the world (selection of studies). The work culminates in original research into positive and negative spiritual factors and potentials of entrepreneurship and management among selected entrepreneurs and managers in the Czech Republic. The collected factors and potentials are summarised, evaluated and proposed for use in entrepreneurial and managerial practice or as an impulse for managerial training.

Summary
Pád socialistického modelu hospodářství v zemích střední a východní Evropy znamenal konec vize vytvořené jakožto alternativa západního kapitalistického hospodářského modelu vycházejícího z filozofických zdrojů moderního individualismu, soukromého vlastnictví, demokracie a tržní ekonomie. Postsocialistické země byly tedy postaveny před zcela nové otázky týkající se „konce jednoho experimentu“ [Pullman, 2011]
