Abstract
This paper critically examines the organisational practice that relates to transpersonal psychology. Drawing upon major theories and findings in the broad area of transpersonal applications from a literature review, we argue that the values of the transpersonal are being communicated indirectly at work. They are subsumed in ‘spirituality’, which in turn is subsumed by the term ‘value’. We conclude that transpersonal psychology has an important role to play in the workplace and suggest possible ways as to how to move the discipline forward.
