Abstract

In this study, the sensitivity of Peter F. Drucker to spirituality and moral values in management and the contributions of this sensitivity to the science of management with moral and moral values are emphasized. As it is known, according to Drucker, management should be according to the goals and he has demonstrated this throughout his life. He did not hesitate to mention the necessity of spirituality and morality values in terms of organizational interaction and management success. It seems that he always emphasizes spirituality and morality in terms of management activities and the values that the manager should have in his books and writings where he deals with management and its characteristics. There is a consistency in this respect between his early works and his late works. As a finding of the study, it is seen that management science researchers on a global scale do not neglect to benefit from moral values and this contributes as a trend in terms of spiritual and moral values in management science.
