Abstract

The study investigates the role of spiritual intelligence in developing friendly connections and mutual trust to enhance the quality of life of faculty members. A mixed-methods strategy was used to conduct the study, combining quantitative and qualitative research techniques. Data from a sample of higher education professors were gathered using a survey questionnaire, and statistical software was utilized to evaluate the data. In order to better comprehend the experiences of a smaller group of participants, semi-structured interviews were also performed with them. According to the study's results, spiritual intelligence may help higher education faculty members create mutual trust and amicable connections. The study revealed that spiritual intelligence promotes the development of empathy, compassion, and a sense of connectivity across faculties, which aids in the formation of relationships and the development of trust. Spiritual intelligence also enhances people's quality of life by supporting personal growth, well-being, and work satisfaction, according to the findings. Encouragement of spiritual intelligence, according to the study, may be a good method for developing mutual trust and cordial connections among higher education faculty members, which may improve the quality of life in academic settings. The findings also highlight the need of higher education institutions include spiritual intelligence in their courses to help faculty members' personal and professional growth. Overall, the predicted findings of the research may contribute in the development of strategies for increasing spiritual intelligence among higher education faculty members and promoting their personal and professional growth.
