Abstract
The study investigates the relationships between the perceived presence of positive organisational practices and the levels of personal and collective Psychological Capital (PsyCap) and Organisational Thriving (OT) observed by individuals. It hypothesises that applying Coaching-Based Leadership principles within organisations correlates with higher levels of individual and collective PsyCap and a stronger perception of Organisational Thriving. Additionally, it hypothesises that increased supervisor and peer appreciation and Work Gratitude are associated with higher individual and collective PsyCap and a greater perception of the organisation's thriving. Data were collected from 372 participants across 20 organisations using survey scales to measure Psychological Capital (PsyCap), Collective Psychological Capital (PsyCap), Organisational Thriving (OT), Coaching-Based Leadership (CBL), Appreciation at Work, and Work Gratitude. Spearman's rank correlation analysis revealed primarily moderate but significant positive correlations among these variables. Notably, the strongest correlations were observed between Organisational Thriving with both Coaching-Based Leadership and Work Gratitude, with slightly weaker correlations associated with Appreciation at Work. Collective PsyCap resources showed the most substantial links with Work Gratitude, followed by CBL and Appreciation at Work. In contrast, individual PsyCap (iPsyCap) demonstrated more modest but significant relationships with these organisational resources. This study contributes to the fields of Positive Organisational Scholarship and Positive Organisational Behaviour by empirically highlighting the potential impact of positive organisational practices on both individual and collective PsyCap and OT.
