PsyRes: Developing a concept of the psychologically resilient leader

Journal Title: Journal of Global Business Insights - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 1

Abstract

The concept of leader's psychological resilience (PsyRes) is offered as a key in filling the need in today’s highly complex and fast-paced world to be able to handle problems, ambiguity, change, and a host of other demands while still maintaining a focus on the people in the organization that work to make the things happen each and every day to keep the organization viable. Resiliency dictates whether a disruptive life event will result in a digression of that person's life or transform it in a positive manner. The author posits that, based on the concepts of resiliency in the literature, PsyRes consists of three major components: emotional intelligence, authenticity, and meaning in life. 心理弹性:构建心理弹性领导者的概念 摘要 当今世界发展高度复杂,节奏加快,为填补其中的的各项需求,领导者的心理弹性概念(PsyRes)被提出作为处理问题、减少歧义、应对变化和满足其他需求的关键因素。同时,其关注焦点仍是组织中辛勤工作的员工。弹性决定破坏性的生活事件是否会导致个人生活的偏离,亦或使相关人员能积极应变。根据文献中的弹性概念,作者提出心理弹性概念可进一步细分成三个部分:情绪智力、真实性和生活中的意义。 关键词:弹性,组织发展,人力资源开发
