| Title |
Ergänzungsseminar: Positive Organizations: Understanding Happiness and Well-being at Work |
| Description |
Workplace changes are accelerating (e.g., digitalization, globalization, and flexibilization). However, many employees experience them as major challenges instead of opportunities, which become the sources of insecurity and fear in everyday work. The Covid-19 pandemic has worsened the situation, resulting in more uncertainty and pressure for individuals and organizations. To prepare for the changing nature of future work, it is therefore particularly important to switch our focus from correcting what is wrong at work to building positive organizations. Based on the emerging field of Positive Organizational Scholarship (POS) and the related field of Positive Psychology, the idea of a positive organization is that people can find joy, commitment, significance, and fulfillment at work (i.e., "flourishing" according to Martin Seligman). We will focus in-depth on the newest research and principles of POS as well as the applications of positive psychology. It addresses generative dynamics at work and explores various enablers and mechanisms of individual and organizational well-being.
The seminar is conducted by distance learning using Zoom. |
