Abstract

Positive Organizational Behaviour constitutes the study of positive human strengths and competencies: how it can be facilitated, assessed and managed to improve performance in the workplace. Its roots are firmly within positive psychology but transplanted to the world of work and organizations, but should be read by anyone who is interested in extending their knowledge of this field.
