Abstract
Workplace Thriving empowers individuals to thrive in their jobs and flourish in their careers. It is conceptualized as a psychological state in which individuals experience vitality and learning. Limiting thriving to these two has reduced its applicability despite the concept being interconnected, multi-dimensional, and holistic. This work examines thriving, identifies the shortcomings of the existing literature, and proposes a fresh perspective for reconceptualizing it. After defining the construct as “a state of positive engagement and well-being derived when employees are mindful, resourceful, and resilient, enabling them to navigate organisational challenges and achieve effectiveness,” the study proposes a fecund conceptual model. The study focuses on contextual, proximal, and resource factors, such as deriving mindfulness, resourcefulness, and resilience. This reconceptualization presents arguments for understanding thriving, enabling individuals to navigate their organizational lives more effectively.
