Abstract

Spiritual approaches to both secular business practice and adult business education are under discussion in the literature. Drawing upon the notion of sustainable education in order to “situate” discussion, the author suggests some reasons why this may be so and explores the concept of “secular spirituality” as an appropriate paradigm for considering the implications of spiritual issues in learning and at work. Finally, some notions about possible characteristics that spiritually orientated learning organizations might have are raised by drawing upon the experience of American businesses that have trodden this path.
