Abstract
In this article practical theology is portrayed as a work-zone under construction. In order
to understand the architecture associated with the construction work, the impotence
of so called zombie categories and shell institutions are used to illustrate that practical
theology needs to be re-constructed. This re-construction is being developed through
reconsidering paradigm, epistemology and methodology operating within a relevant
re-constructed practical theology. Theoretical principles are embodied in the use
of the qualitative Delphi forecast method, documenting the consensus opinion of 10
informed participants on the possible role of spirituality within the workplace. Building
on these accents, some markers are mapped for the further development of the so
called recapitalisation of practical theology with emphasis on a possible meaning for
the workplace. Future perspectives for the facilitation of spirituality in the workplace are
mapped in conclusion.
