Why a psycho-socio-technical model of transformational learning will better prepare students for a rapidly changing world.

Gen Z students are seeking business programs that offer flexible delivery, meaningful social interactions, and humanistic approaches. Jack Mezirow’s theory of transformational learning can serve as a foundation for delivering student-centric curricula that require self-paced learning, incorporate peer evaluation, and encourage self-discovery.

Human strengths: a systematic conceptual review, conceptualising employee strengths at work and a framework for management development

Utilising employee strengths contributes to humanising organisations. However, the current concept of strengths has evolved from the domain of social work, advanced by personality and positive psychologists and adopted in management. The trait-like conceptualisation of strengths conceptualised by psychologists is of lesser relevance to organisations as it discounts the significance of contextual factors for manifesting employee strengths.

Thereafter, this study aims to develop a conceptual model and makes propositions related to the mediating effects of ESAW on the association of leadership style and employee performance.

Conceptualizing employee strengths at work and scale development

There is a compelling need for developing constructs in management science for higher relevance rather than adapting constructs developed in other domains and applying them in organisations. An inquiry in the relevance of the construct of strength developed in personality psychology and applied to organisations is compelling, as deploying strengths leads to humanising organisations. With growing disengagement of employees at work, this study makes a significant contribution by conceptualizing strengths in the context of organisations and carrying out two studies on independent samples for developing a psychometrically validated 14-item scale for measuring it.
