 Psychological capital can be understood as a
development and positive state of an individual as
characterized by hope, resiliency, self-efficacy, and
optimism (Emil Berg and Terje Karlsen, 2014).
 These four pillars of psychological capital have
their different significance.

performance of the individual employee but have a
huge impact on the performance of the overall
organization.
Psychological Capital

 Hope is based on the interactively derived sense of
success and is one of the important pillars of
psychological capital.
 Meaning of hope includes the willpower as well as way
power. Hope is one of the significant positive
organizational behaviour element/attributes.
 With the help of many studies and survey it is clear that
people with high hope level are more profitable and
efficient, therefore whenever it comes to develop a
positive organizational culture, hope plays a vital role.
Hope

 The following acts will be done in the workshop in order to
increase the level of hope in the workers of the organization.
 Employees will be realized how important they are for the
organization. When they will come to know about the fact that
organization recognises the talented and loyal employees, their
hope will automatically be enhanced.
 Sharing the vision is another manner to increase the hope in
employees. When employees are aware of the lead target of the
company and efforts of leader to achieve the same, they feel
motivated and achieve a good level of hope as they know that
employer is paying enough attention to them.
 One can not be hopeful if the same does not know about the
future plan. To raise the hope in employees, they will be
informed about the exciting projects of the company.

employees to achieve the goals of
the organization.

and success of the organization and therefore the development of the same is
necessary (Sousa, Coelho and Guillamon-Saorin, 2012).
