title: [Reflections on spiritual management in the nursing profession].
abstract: Facing dramatic change in modern society, people have to keep pace with their work and with competition. They may enter a state of exhaustion after a period of time. Leaders usually apply spiritual management to their organizations, for the direct purpose of reinforcing their employees' states of mind, and the indirect purpose of enhancing the organization's efficiency. Through a review of literature on scholars' views on spiritual management and organizations' achievements with spiritual management, this article offers suggestions for the application of spiritual management in clinical nursing and the nursing education system. The authors hope that it might serve as a reference in the development of spiritual management in our nursing professional organizations.
