Gallup Organizations-strength finder
The focus is not on changing worker weaknesses and deficiencies but on building on their assets
As Buckingham and Coffman put it, "Don't waste time trying to put in what was left out. Try to draw out what was left in. That is hard enough."

MATCH PEOPLE, DON'T FIX THEM
"Which would help you be more successful in your life-knowing what your weaknesses are and attempting to improve your weaknesses, or knowing what your strengths are and attempting to build on your strengths?" (Hodges & Clifton, 2004,
In terms of the percentages of respondents who favored the building on strengths approach, these researchers found the following: United States = 41 %; Great Britain = 38%; Canada = 38%; France = 29%; Japan = 24%; and China = 24%.

Positive Traits The Big Five personality traits of
conscientiousness, emotional stability, extroversion,agreeableness, and openness to experience have been shown to strongly relate to performance
Related to individual-level outcomes such as happiness, physical and psychological health, spirituality, and identity

These personality traits have also been found to be positively related to entrepreneurship (Zhao & Seibert, 2006), cultural intelligence (Ang, Van Dyne, & Koh, 2006), and satisfaction with teams (Peeters, Rutte,van Tuijl, & Reymen, 2006)
and negatively associated with undesirable outcomes such as burnout (Bakker, van der Zee, Lewig, & Dollard, 2006)

Core Self-Evaluations
1.self-esteem, 2.generalized self-efficacy, 3.locus of control, and 4 .emotional stability
They are significant positive predictors of goal setting, motivation, performance, job and life satisfaction, and other desirable outcomes

Luthans (2002b) first defined POB as “the study and application of positively oriented human resource strengths and psychological capacities that can be measured, developed, and effectively managed for performance improvement in today’s workplace”
![Page 10: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Self-Efficacy as a State-Like Psychological Resource Capacity
Stajkovic and Luthans (1998b) define self-efficacy in the workplace as “one’s conviction (or confidence) about his or her abilities to mobilize the motivation, cognitive resources, and courses of action needed to successfully execute a specific task within a given context
![Page 11: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
the relationship between self-efficacy and numerous work-related performance
dimensions is highly established. These desirable outcomes include work attitudes across cultures
moral or ethical decision making, leadership effectiveness, creativity, entrepreneurship,learning
![Page 12: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
confident individuals employ cognitive capacities such as symbolizing, forethought, observation, self-regulation, and self-reflection toward the accomplishment of their goals
![Page 13: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Hope as a State-Like Psychological Resource Capacity
“a positive motivational state that is based on an interactively derived sense of successful (1) agency (goaldirected energy)
(2) pathways (planning to meet goals)”
![Page 14: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
recent empirical studies support a positive relationship between employee hope and performance and work attitudes(Youssef & Luthans, 2008)
organizational profitability (Adams et al., 2002), between entrepreneurs’ hope and their satisfaction with business ownership
![Page 15: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Hope has been found to relate to performance in various domains, including academic and athletic achievement, physical and mental health, survival and coping beliefs and skills, and other desirable positive life and well-being outcomes
![Page 16: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Optimism as a State-Like Psychological Resource Capacity
optimism incorporates cognitive emotional, and motivational components
In situations that require prudence, contingency planning, preventive measures, and redundant systems, which are typical of many organizational settings, it is necessary for participants to be able to adapt their style, alternating between optimistic and pessimistic explanatory styles, or what is referred to as “flexible optimism” (C. Peterson, 2000; Schulman, 1999)
![Page 17: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Realistic, flexible optimism simultaneously allows recognition of positive achievements in oneself and others and accountability and acceptance of responsibility for challenges and difficult situations
![Page 18: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Resiliency as a State-Like Psychological Resource Capacity
Luthans (2002a) defines resiliency as “the capacity to rebound or bounce back from adversity, conflict, failure, or even positive events, progress, and increased responsibility”
![Page 19: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
POB perspective on resilience is that it is a learnable capacity that can be developed in the most ordinary of people (Masten, 2001; Masten & Reed, 2002) and measured as state like
Masten and Reed (2002) have give a.asset-focused strategies, b.risk-focused strategies, and C. process-focused Strategies
![Page 20: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Asset-focused strategies emphasize building resiliency through enhancing one’s asset inventories, thus increasing the probability of success
Risk-focused strategies decrease the probability of failure by eliminating or reducing as many risk factors as possible.
Process-focused strategies attempt to enhance resilience by building effective coping mechanisms that can facilitate the utilization of various assets to overcome adversity
![Page 21: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Psychological Capital or PsyCap
four positive psychological capacities may contribute more in combination and interaction in what is called PsyCap
![Page 22: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
This PsyCap is comprehensively defined as
An individual’s positive psychological state of development that is characterized by:
(1) having confidence (self-efficacy) to take on and put in the necessary,effort to succeed at challenging tasks;
(2) making a positive attribution (optimism) about succeeding now and in the future;
(3) persevering toward goals and, when necessary, redirecting paths to goals (hope) in order to succeed;
(4) when beset by problems and adversity, sustaining and bouncing back and even beyond (resiliency) to attain success (Luthans, Youssef, et al., 2007a, p. 3).
![Page 23: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The cognitive capacities of creativity and wisdom, the affective capacities of subjective well-being, flow, and humor, and the higher-order capacity of authenticity seem to meet most of the PsyCap inclusion criteria (Luthans, Youssef, et al., 2007a
![Page 24: Positive organizational behavior](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551de0af7959795d8b46de/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
the more social positive capacities of gratitude, forgiveness, and emotional
intelligence and the higher-order capacities of spirituality and courage are
still being explored regarding their fit with the inclusion criteria
