Abstract

Using theoretical grounds of social learning and spillover theories, this study empirically tested the leadership model for maximizing the triple bottom line. Personal Spiritual Leadership was taken as a fundamental facilitator to cultivate a spiritual culture that helped improve performance across the triple bottom line. The study hypothesized the impact of personal spiritual leadership on the triple bottom line through the mediation of workplace spirituality. Using cluster sampling, data were collected in two waves with four months of time lag from employees of export-oriented large manufacturing organizations in Sialkot, Pakistan. Results from 304 cases supported the proposed mediation across the triple bottom line. The model's predictive power is more substantial for pro-environmental behavior than employee performance and psychological well-being. Multiple implications were discussed, along with future directions.
