Abstract
Grounded on the broaden-and-build theory, the study examines whether spirituality at the workplace is a significant antecedent of psychological capital. The study uses single-source data from 347 employees employed in several industries in India. Data are analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) v.3.3.3. Both measurement and structural models are evaluated. The findings reveal that workplace spirituality evokes psychological capital (PsyCap) resources of hope, optimism, efficacy, and resilience. It demonstrates how employees in collectivist cultural settings embrace spirituality to conserve positive psychological resources at their workplaces. Hence, business leaders, OD practitioners need to instil and arouse spirituality-based interventions through work, climate, and organization settings. The study has many implications for business managers, HRs and OD practitioners. It highlights the significance of spiritual mind set and practices that need to be emphasized at the workplace to utilize the psychological resources embodied in their employees fully. This study is one of a kind in which the researchers have nailed down to what leads to the creation and sustainability of PsyCap at workplace.
