POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGICAL CAPITAL ENHANCES THRIVING IN THE MULTICULTURAL WORK ENVIRONMENT OF MULTINATIONAL CORPORATIONS

Abstrakt

The aim of the paper is to examine positive psychological capital (PsyCap) as well as individual factors in the relationship with thriving in the multicultural work environment of multinational corporations (MNCs). We conducted a quantitative study on the sample of 127 individuals from subsidiaries of various MNCs located in Poland and involved in intercultural interactions. The results of cross-sectional study show that employees who have a higher level of PsyCap as resource caravans experience more vitality. Moreover, employees who have a higher level of PsyCap experience more learning at work in MNCs. We also observed that the learning component of thriving was more vivid than vitality. In contrast, individual factors, i.e. job tenure, language proficiency or prior international experience, were insignificant. Our results demonstrate that PsyCap of individuals is a significant factor that triggers their thriving at work in multicultural environments of MNCs.
