Positive psychology offers approaches that go beyond reducing workplace dynamics symptoms toward building the conditions for genuine flourishing.
PERMA and Workplace Dynamics
Martin Seligman's PERMA model identifies five elements of wellbeing relevant to workplace dynamics:
- Positive emotions: Deliberately cultivating joy, gratitude, and pleasure alongside workplace dynamics treatment
- Engagement: Flow states that create absorption and counter workplace dynamics
- Relationships: Quality connections that buffer against workplace dynamics
- Meaning: Purpose that persists despite workplace dynamics
- Achievement: Progress toward goals, even while managing workplace dynamics
