In contrast, positive psychology appears, which isdefined by Seligman as an approach that seeks personal wellness through empowering positiveemotions like hope, resilience and optimism. Hence, there have been studies that show manyapproaches to the organization through this theory. This paper is a theoretical review of what theresearchers discuss about organizational behavior seen from the psychological approach, which willtouch topics such as leadership, organizational climate and work teams.
