20.500.12556/RUL-148308 The impact of wisdom and courage on presencing and absencing at work the mediating role of mindfulness Background and Objective: Wisdom and courage are positive psychological capacities. Presencing and absencing at work are novel employee attitudes and behaviours. The objective of this paper is to explore the impact of wisdom and courage on presencing and absencing at work, while also considering possible mediation through mindfulness. Methods: This paper hypothesises that wisdom has a positive impact on presencing and a negative impact on absencing, while courage has a negative impact on presencing and a positive impact on absencing. We expect mindfulness mediates the aforementioned relationships. An analysis is performed on a sample of 274 employees in Slovenia by applying structural equation modelling. Results: The test results have shown that wisdom has a negative impact on absencing at work, while courage has a positive impact on absencing at work. These impacts are mediated through mindfulness. The major weakness of this research design is a low sample size and the weak construct reliability of wisdom and courage. Conclusions: Wisdom and courage have opposing effects on presencing and absencing at work. Mindfulness is an important mediator. Contribution/value: This research contributes to positive organisational behaviour by showing that positive psychological capacities (i.e., wisdom, courage, mindfulness) are important predictors of employee presencing and absencing. organization personnel absenteeism positive organisational behaviour human virtues presencing absencing mindfulness organizacija kadri odsotnost z dela true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2023-08-11 10:35:17 2023-08-11 10:39:06 2025-08-08 13:22:31 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2023 0 0 Str. 64-78 iss. 2, article no. 1 Vol. 25 Jun. 2023 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 331.108 2335-4216 10.15458/2335-4216.1318 154281731 The_Impact_of_Wisdom_and_Courage_on_Presencing_and_Absencing_at_Work_The_Mediating_Role_of_Mindfulness.pdf The_Impact_of_Wisdom_and_Courage_on_Presencing_and_Absencing_at_Work_The_Mediating_Role_of_Mindfulness.pdf 1 32E87FD43388FDB7CC00F943ABE7B500 2d9f4d039b63c59e68cebc073aa5506c7930d440ebd6439de1b8be155166396d 6c6bf20b-3822-11ee-b9d7-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=172407 https://www.ebrjournal.net/home/vol25/iss2/1/ 0 7c552efe-3822-11ee-b9d7-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=172410 Ekonomska fakulteta 0 0 0
