    Moderated by Distinguished Professor Ajoy Kumar Dey, IILM University, Gurugram), this paper session brings together cutting-edge research at the intersection of spirituality, leadership, and ethical organizational practice.

    πŸ”¬ Featured Paper Highlight: "Spiritual Leadership as Moral Infrastructure: Greenwashing as Anathema in Sri Lankan Banks" By Amali De Silva & Jody Fry, Texas A&M University

    This insightful qualitative study challenges us to rethink spiritual leadership-not merely as individual virtue, but as the inner moral infrastructure that protects authentic sustainability practice under institutional pressure.

    Key Insights:

    ✨ Elite interviews with 11 CEOs (85% of Sri Lankan licensed local commercial banks)

    ✨ Reveals how leaders' inner moral reasoning and spiritual self-regulation resist greenwashing

    ✨ Reframes greenwashing as moral drift from weakened inner discipline-not just technical misreporting

    ✨ Demonstrates how inner-life cultivation shapes stewardship, legacy orientation, and institutional defense of values

    In an era of intensifying ESG scrutiny, this research offers profound insights into how authentic leadership from within can safeguard corporate sustainability commitments.

    🎯 Why attend? Explore how spiritual leadership creates ethical infrastructure in organizations-essential knowledge for researchers, practitioners, and anyone committed to human flourishing and authentic organizational transformation.

    See you in Philadelphia! πŸ””
