Employee Positive Emotion and Favorable Outcomes at the Workplace

Employee Positive Emotion and Favorable Outcomes at the Workplace
This paper draws on writings in psychology, sociology and organizational behavior to develop a conceptual framework that specifies how positive emotion helps employees obtain favorable outcomes at work. We propose that feeling and expressing positive emotions on the job have favorable consequences on: (1) employees independent of their relationships with others (e.g., greater persistence), (2) reactions of others to employees (e.g., “halo,” or overgeneralization to other desirable traits), and (3) reactions of employees to others (e.g., helping others). These three sets of intervening processes are proposed, in turn, to lead to work achievement, job enrichment and a higher quality social context. A partial test of this framework is made in an 18-month study of 272 employees. Results indicate that positive emotion on the job at time 1 is associated with evidence of work achievement (more favorable supervisor evaluations and higher pay) and a supportive social context (more support from supervisors and coworkers) at time 2. But positive emotion at time 1 is not significantly associated with job enrichment at time 2.

In my opinion the employee positive emotion greatly affect the outcome of their performance, if someone has a good emotion in this case the EQ will be able to do a thing or work in collected. other than IQ, EQ is also needed in dealing with each problem in the workplace. such positive emotional manners are also greatly affect the process of adaptation of workers in the work station. so that they can be received well in their environment. Thus it is also providing added value in conducting a meeting with corporate leaders or with other corporate leaders. because of their ability will not be enough if a person without offset by a positive emotional. so that the positive emotions of employees will be much beneficial to the work in the work station. the higher levels of positive emotions is more influence a person's good that is provided to the workplace. workplace that is conducive to allow comfort for all workers who are in the work station. in my opinion, the positive emotions that can be demonstrated as calmness in decision-making is also required by the workers in taking a decision which can be influenced by a number of pressures from within and from outside. so the positive attitude of workers in the workplace greatly affects the performance of workers, the higher the level of positive emotions, the more favorable workers in the workplace.
