Résumé 0

It is difficult for management to cope with religion. However, religion imposes itself on managers and managerial practices when it comes to adjusting finance, marketing, or human resource management to people’s beliefs and to the religious contexts of markets. This article explores how religion challenges management. It examines how the issue emerges within organizations under the more managerially correct concept of spirituality, in the US context for example. It ultimately proposes a third path: if management is a human science, it might discover in religion some insights that are very helpful when traditional references are called into question.
