Abstract

Contemporary organizations becomes more stupidity intensive with domination of stupidity management. Stupidity management deals with limitation of unsuitable „smart“, with limitations in intelectual and/or emotional-motivational functional area. The deficit of critical thinking, deeper thinking, creativity and passion most often arise not because of intelligence deficit but because different emotional-motivational blockages which generate stupidity management (fear, uncertainity, power mechanism, domination, coercion, „higher“ politics, lack of curiosity…), but also because of partial knowledge and/or pseudoknowledge as dominant management „modus operandi“. This paper by insight method inquires the problem of stupidity management which retard the development by inhibiting the cognitive capacities of organizational human resuources. The central mediation factor of stupidity management „ideology“ is marginalization of spiritual values. Without spiritual management no one potential valuable organizational/economic solution regardless of its vision or strategic fundation can not vivify, because it will be distoreted or canceled by opportunism of privileged actors which characterize essential lack of spirituality. Developmental and organizational crisis is dominantly result of spirituality (value) crisis which do not promote collectively good and the greatest good for all, but only for privileged groups and individuals. In minimizing the stupidity management and economic stagnation substantialy can help only nonmaterial resources, this means spirituality management which implement the value categories such as: truth, correct behaviour, love, serenity and nonviolance which are the basis for realization the vision of spiritual, productive, inteligent, creative and happy enterprises. The goal of this paper is to research how to deminish stupidity management which is seen as a couse of business-economic stagnation by means of spirituality management and his value categories.
