Journal of Studies in Religion, Spirituality & Management
(formerly known as Journal of Islam and Management):
Since its first issue in 2012, the Journal of Studies in Religion, Spirituality and Management (JSRSM) a peer-review academic journal, has published scholarly papers – empirical and reflexive; theory development, case studies and book reviews – the largest depository of current knowledge in this fast-evolving scholarly field.

We serve five large communities:
We encompass, without prejudicing any belief or none, a multitude of interests and concerns. JSRSM wishes to define the field through conceptual, theoretical and empirical understandings of JSRSM that include: interdisciplinary and multi-methodological approaches—all spiritual and religious traditions—examining the relationship between JSRSM and society – critical, theological and philosophical reflections on JSRSM—metaphysical explanations of JSRSM.
There are no fees for submitting a publication for consideration, nor for publishing in JSRSM. The journal supports an open access publishing option.
JSRSM’s mission is to initiate, facilitate, produce and deliver academic and evidence-based knowledge on the role and place of spirituality in today’s world of work. We aim to probe deeper and wider into our know-how of managing and organising, by recourse to the wisdoms of all faiths and beliefs (including non-faiths) and by reference to organizational, managerial and related fields of knowledge and practice. We are dedicated to working toward the development of theory and best practice, the exchange of ideas and to enable a forum for debate, through the dissemination of cutting-edge knowledge, scientifically validated.
