Dr Emmett Emery

Abstract
The key elements of this study provided new research into spirituality in the workplace and leaders ability to make sound decisions. The purpose of this quantitative correlation study was to examine the relationship between leadership, decision-making, and spirituality. Fry theory of spiritual leadership was the theoretical framework used in the research. Fry theory examined factors that explain the correlation between spirituality, leadership and decision-making in the workplace. Results of the research showed that there is not significant evidence between leadership, decision-making, and spirituality in the workplace. The results from this study may provide significant information to help organizations create strategic plans to improve the decision-making process of leaders in the workplace that involves spirituality. Organizations and leaders may benefit from the utilization of sound decisions made in a spiritually based workplace by assessing the impact and consequences of spirituality in the workplace, while improving the effectiveness of the decision-making process.
