In order to collect data, the researchers have used a standard questionnaire. For data analysis, the statistical t-test, the interpretative structural modeling (ISM) technique, and MICMAC [matrix multiplication applied to classification] analysis have been used. The results of examining the dimensions of spiritual leadership indicate that each of the mentioned dimensions is higher than average. Also, the results of interpretative structural modeling technique and MICMAC analysis show that the components of organizational vision, organizational commitment, and hope/faith are the most effective among the components of spiritual leadership.
