The present study tried to design and test a model for precedents and consequences of organizational spirituality in an industrial organization. The sample included 400 employees who were randomly selected. They were asked to fill in 7 questionnaires, including Ethical Leadership Questionnaire, Transformational Leadership Questionnaire, Ethical Climate Questionnaire, Organizational Justice Questionnaire, Organizational Spirituality Questionnaire, Psychological Empowerment Questionnaire, Job Satisfaction Questionnaire, Emotional Commitment Scale, Organizational Citizenship Behavior Scale, Self-Actualization Scale, and The Self-Centered Scale. The assessment of the proposed model was done through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results showed a rather good fitting of the model with the data. The variables such as ethical leadership, transformational leadership, ethical climate, and organizational justice influenced the organizational spirituality. On the other hand, the organizational spirituality had effects on variables such as psychological empowerment, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, organizational citizenship behavior, self-actualization and the organization-based self-esteem. Moreover, through organizational spirituality, the variables including ethical leadership, transformational leadership, ethical climate, and organizational justice indirectly affected the following variables: psychological empowerment, job satisfaction, emotional commitment, organizational citizen behavior, self-actualization, organization-based self-esteem.
