This comprehensive book provides an overview on the present status of positive organizational behaviour, offering insights on the growing body of research and scholarship, as well as suggestions for future directions in the field. Recent times have seen phenomenal and unprecedented changes in work settings, with many transitioning to hybrid or fully remote arrangements. In addition, unwarranted and unscrupulous application of technology, detrimental ramifications of work stress, and impaired well-being at work are posited to create an unsustainable work environment.

Bringing together leading experts from around the world, this collection synthesizes and captures the advancements within the discipline of positive organizational behaviour. It covers such topics as: psychological capital, work engagement interventions, self-efficacy, emotions and positive work behaviour, free will, resilience, work wellbeing, evolutionary psychology and positive workplace, cross-cultural positive organizational behaviour, common-good HRM practices, and methodological advances and challenges in positivity assessments.

The book offers a valuable resource for students and scholars of work/organizational psychology, organizational behaviour and applications of positive psychology. It is also a useful reference for organizations looking to understand and implement positive organizational policies in their workplaces.
