Sunil Ramlall on the Pursuit of Happiness
Happiness - Brief Description by Sunil Ramlall
The earliest writings of philosophers pondered the virtues of positive thinking and the pursuit of happiness. For example, Aristotle argued that happiness is the highest good humans can achieve and that the use of reason and rationality is essential to its achievement.
In today's society, many will argue that work is the source of their stress, their inability to spend adequate time with family or volunteer in community activities and being unable to further their education. Happiness can be cultivated by identifying and using the strengths people already possess.
The search for excellence and all‐around happiness has been the important objective for ages. Happiness can be attained either through self‐contentment or through fulfillment of desires.
Over the years, many organizational leaders and managers have argued about the relationship between happy/satisfied employees and productive employees.
Pursuing that inner sense of freedom, security, and reassurance are core to creating psychological well-being. Asking the “why” for all we do. Why are we working? Why pursue financial freedom? Why a better health? This helps to create a sense of purpose for all we do. We are choosing to stay with a job maybe because it gives us meaning, or maybe we need to seek alternative options because it does not contribute to our happiness adequately. The positive psychology scholarship clearly defines the rationale for positive thinking.

The personal finance website Wallet Hub compared the 50 states across 30 key indicators of happiness, including rates of depression, income growth and the employment rate, to determine which state is the happiest.

Positive psychological principles and subsequently positive organizational behavior (POB) have become increasingly prevalent in the workplace in recent years. We have witnessed many struggles in the global economy where organizations across the world have experienced layoffs, lower productivity, lower employee morale, and generally struggling to be competitive.
Given these negative environments, what can organizations do across the world to enhance the positive practices that will create benefits for all of the stakeholders through POB? We also identify gaps that exist in organizational practices and how positive organizational behavior can be integrated to build sustainable organizations.

HR Competencies - International
Tuesday, August 20, 2013
HR Competencies
In collaboration with colleagues at KAU in Saudi Arabia, we are conducting a research study on HR competencies. With growing emphasis being placed on HR competencies as a means to increasing HR’s effectiveness in Saudi Arabia, this research study seeks to i) determine if competencies are predictive of success in the HR profession, ii) understand how competencies vary by type of position within HR (entry level, manager, director and executives), iii) determine if there is a relationship between specific competencies and particular responsibilities of HR professionals, and iv) determine the relationship among education, years of HR experience, competencies, and compensation. Numerous areas are identified as gaps between competencies HR professionals should possess compared to current competencies necessary to function effectively as strategic business partners.
Researchers in the field of strategic human resource management (HRM) and human resource development (HRD) have emphasized the view that systems of human resource (HR) practices may lead to higher firm performance and be sources of sustained competitive advantages (Wright, Dunford, & Snell, 2001). For clarification purposes, the discussion of HR practices in this paper will include both HRM and HRD.
HR competencies deal with the knowledge, skills, and values that successful human resource (HR) professionals demonstrate in all types of positions, companies, and geographies (Ulrich, Younger, Brockbank, & Ulrich, 2012). The techniques help those professionals architect, coach, design, and facilitate programs for effective operations resulting in more efficient and content organizations.
