The presentation highlights the positive outcomes of psychological capital for individuals, teams, and organizations. It also discusses the development of psychological capital and the ways in which it can be enhanced in adulthood. Moreover, the presentation addresses current trends in psychological capital research and especially how Czech and Slovak psychologists can take it into account in their research in organizations. Attention is also paid to the limitations and existing criticism of the concept of psychological capital. |
