ABSTRACT

This research empirically tests the impact of factors that are thought to influence positive organizational behavior (POB), and draws out the institutional, administrative and theoretical implications. Questionnaire surveys of 500 public employees from four central ministries in four policy areas of Korean government are examined through factor analysis, reliability test, and hierarchical regression analyses (Hierarchical Linear Model). The results reveal the following factors to have statistically significant positive effects: (i) personal factors such as position level and length of experience, (ii) organizational structural variables including formalization and complexity, (iii) transformational leadership factors such as charisma and knowledge stimulus, (iv) organizational cultural variables including relational culture and achievement-oriented culture, and (v) socialization resource factors such as social support. The impacted elements of POB include self-efficacy, hope, resilience, and optimism. Based on these results, various institutional, administrative and theoretical implications are drawn with the aim of fostering and increasing the POB of public employees.
