Resumen


ABSTRACT: The theoretical approaches to the themes of spiritual intelligence and Job Crafting point to similarities in the context of meaning and purpose in life. Based on this premise, this study aimed to verify, through a quantitative study of structural equation modeling, whether the theoretical evidence was confirmed empirically. A theoretical model of the relationship between these variables was proposed to verify whether the leader's spiritual intelligence influences the Job crafting action of his followers. The spiritual intelligence scale for leaders (SILS) and the JC scale (JCQ) were used. The sample was composed of hospital health professionals from two countries (Brazil and Portugal). The results indicated that there is a positive and direct relationship between the leader's spiritual intelligence and workers' behavior. Despite showing similarities, the Brazilian sample has a greater propensity for JC. The Portuguese sample is more influenced by its leader.


Keywords: Spiritual intelligence; Job crafting; Leadership.

RESUMO: As abordagens teóricas dos temas inteligência espiritual e Job Crafting apontam semelhanças no contexto de significado e propósito de vida. Partindo dessa premissa, este estudo teve como objetivo verificar, por meio de um estudo quantitativo de modelagem de equações estruturais, se as evidências teóricas foram confirmadas empiricamente. Foi proposto um modelo teórico da relação entre essas variáveis para verificar se a inteligência espiritual do líder influencia a ação de Job crafting de seus seguidores. Foram utilizadas a escala de inteligência espiritual para líderes (SILS) e a escala JC (JCQ). A amostra foi composta por profissionais de saúde hospitalares de dois países (Brasil e Portugal). Os resultados indicaram que existe uma relação positiva e direta entre a inteligência espiritual do líder e o comportamento dos trabalhadores. Apesar de apresentar semelhanças, a amostra brasileira apresenta maior propensão ao JC. A amostra portuguesa é mais influenciada pelo seu líder.
