Abstract
The present study aims to classify and level the factors influencing organizational commitment based on a spiritual leadership style using the Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) method. In terms of purpose, the research is applied-developmental, and regarding data collection, it is descriptive; in terms of implementation, it follows a quantitative approach. The statistical population consisted of 10 managers from Bank Sepah in Kerman province, each with over 20 years of work experience, at least 10 years of managerial experience, and a specialized academic background in management. Participants were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through an ISM questionnaire, which was distributed, completed, and analyzed in the field. For the leveling of factors, Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) and MICMAC software were utilized. The findings revealed that “Hope” and “Vision” occupy the fourth level, functioning as the foundation of the model and possessing the highest driving power in shaping organizational commitment, acting as a “strategic driver.” “Value Thinking and Perception,” “Sense of Purpose,” and “Meaningfulness” are positioned at the third level, serving as mediating factors. “Spirituality in the Organization,” “Job Characteristics,” “Self-Knowledge,” and “Sincere Behaviors” are located at the second level, also functioning as mediators. Finally, “Environmental Awareness,” “Self-Actualization,” and “Cultural Intelligence” are placed at the first level as the final outcomes of the model.
