Gain inspiring and practical research-based strategies for building organizations that are high performing and bring out the best in people. Join us at the Positive Links Speaker Series to learn from leading Positive Organizational scholars. Connect with our community of academics, students, staff, and leaders at our receptions that immediately follow each session.

HOSTED BY: Jane Dutton, the Robert L. Kahn Distinguished University Professor of Business Administration and Psychology at Michigan Ross.

SESSION DESCRIPTION: What do we know, and what do we not yet know about the effects of the "positive" in organizations and on individuals? Positive leadership can and does have powerful, generative effects in organizations. At the same time, there are some important criticisms and critiques associated with "the positive". Some criticize the research. Some criticize the practice. In this presentation, Kim summarizes the five key critiques of Positive Organizational Scholarship and positive leadership, and responds to them directly.
