What research and applications are behind the tools?
The Positive HR tools have been designed using evidence from the fields of emotional intelligence, positive psychology, and neuroscience. A team of positive psychology experts have researched, developed, and piloted the application and effectiveness of positive psychology based tools for work. The aim is to bring wellbeing science to everyday use in organisations.
If you are an HR professional and interested in this new evidence-based approach, access the toolkit to learn simple ways to bring positive psychology at work alive.
“When organisations institute positive, virtuous practices they achieve significantly higher levels of organisational effectiveness — including financial performance, customer satisfaction, and productivity … The more the virtuousness, the higher the performance in profitability, productivity, customer satisfaction, and employee engagement.”
