Summary/Abstract: Spiritual intelligence, as philosophy of company's management, is changing the meaning and purpose of conducting business. Upgraded with spiritual capital it is representing awareness of higher purpose than just profit, and is also a basis for achieving a psychical well-being of employees, which stimulates creativeness, innovativeness, and consequentially, the competitiveness of company. In this article we focus on spiritual intelligence and capital, which we connect to psychical well-being of individual. Our objective is to examine the non-technological phenomena to requisitely holistically manage human resources in organizations; economic and business theories are one-sided. Psychical well-being is determined by hedonistic (emphasis on subjective well-being) and eudaimonical (emphasis on self-realization) perspectives.. Comprehensions of both approaches are combined in psychical well-being of individual, which determines his/her satisfaction, creativeness and productiveness. Methodology applied is qualitative analysis and literature review focused on the field of HRM, human holism including spiritual intelligence, well-being, management, and systems theories.
