This is a correlation study following a descriptive-survey method. Research population includes all police members in Ilam province, 313 of whom were selected to make a sample group. Four standardized questionnaires were employed to collect data. The results of structural equation modelling confirmed the proposed model of this research. It indicated that the component of spiritual leadership correlates positively and significantly with spirituality-based motivation (coefficient= 0.71). Both of these components influence job satisfaction (0.69 and 0.90) and organization performance (0.76 and .69). It is suggested that police commanders pay close attention to organizational vision in order to increase job satisfaction and organizational performance. In this way, they can augment the feelings of efficiency and effectiveness in employees. They can also increase participation of the employees and engage them more in the aims and missions of the organization by establishing informal communication networks.
