Conferences

IAMSR biennial conferences are designed to serve as a meeting place for academics engaged in the study and teaching of workplace spirituality and related religious issues; and for practitioners – management consultants, professionals and practising managers, engaged in practice relevant to spirituality and religion at the workplace.

Our first conference was held in Vienna, Austria in 2010, our second conference was in Bangalore, India in 2012, the third was held in Lourdes, France in 2013, the fourth in Barcelona, Spain in 2015, and our fifth conference took place in Fayetteville, Arkansas in 2017. Our 6th conference scheduled to take place in Vienna in 2020 was postponed to September 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our latest was in Copenhagen, Denmark, 22nd and 23rd of August 2024, where we were pleased to collaborate with the Copenhagen Business School in the conference on Mind, Meditation, and Management

The goal of this conference was to frame the current state of science in such a way as to facilitate academic discourse within the transformation, awareness, and self-ecosystem; and explore how to transport such inquiries into the practice of general management with emphasis on leadership and innovation.
