Psychological capital and performance: A two-level study integrating OCTAPACE culture
Gaurav Yadav and Shanti Suman
Organizations now contend that psychological resources and organizational culture are critical in delivering performance outcomes. The concept of psychological capital (PsyCap) has been gaining momentum, but there is much more that is left to be explored in terms of its influence on individual and team performance. Thus, this study attempts to find out the relationships among individual PsyCap, team PsyCap, OCTAPACE culture, and performance outcomes at the individual and team levels. Specifically, it works to find out whether individual PsyCap mediates the effect of OCTAPACE culture on employee performance. The study also examines cross-level relationships: whether team PsyCap affects individual employee performance and whether individual-level PsyCap affects team performance. The findings will thus bridge significant gaps in the literature regarding direct implications of team PsyCap on its outcomes and highlight the importance of psychological resources and organizational culture in employee performance outcomes.
