Much contemporary research ignores or is dismissive of the growth of
global religiosity, even though 90 percent of the global population sees
the world through a commitment to some kind of faith. Reimagining Faith
and Management addresses this issue and extends the research on the
impact of faith in various aspects of management, such as negotiation,
leadership, entrepreneurship, governance, innovation, ethics, finance
and careers.
Faith impacts how individuals and organisations envision, manage and
respond to their various stakeholders, communities, the natural
environment and the world around them. This book presents various facets
of how faith, values and/or ideological outlook which informs,
influences and adds mystery to inspire and impel individuals and
organisations. The 21 chapters are based on academic research and offer
practical managerial recommendations. The book is divided into three
sections: faithful futures impacting individuals; faithful futures
impacting organisations and faithful futures impacting society.
Each chapter presents a theoretical base and includes practical
implications. The book is ideal reading for educators, practitioners,
researchers and students of business, management, career studies,
faith-based organisations, corporate governance and business ethics, as
well as religious studies, including applied theology.
