With the many changes and uncertainties facing organisations based in South Africa, it is necessary to be more resilient in the face of adversity. The positive workplace can bring hope and optimism throughout the world of work. It can contribute to the building of our country, and even be considered as “the other way”!
The concepts used in creating positive organisations have been well researched by numerous organisations such as Gallup Organisation; Centre for Applied Positive Psychology; Center for Positive Organisational Scholarship (Stephen M. Ross School of Business, University of Michigan); and Positive Psychology Center (University of Pennsylvania) to name but a few.
The notion of positivity can be applied to various organisations, including businesses, civil societies, schools, government, health organisations, etc.
It is with this in mind that Knowledge Resources has put together a two-day conference: Creating the Positive Organisation. This conference is scheduled for the 2nd and 3rd of September 2008 at the FNB Conference and Learning Centre, Sandton.
