Abstract
Focusing on human strength and flourishing, positive organizational behavior opened a new era in organizational behavior studies and reshaped scholars’ and practitioners’ demands from leadership. More human focused leaders have become acceptable and popular including servant leadership, one of the main points we have focused in this study. In our research model, being inspired from positive organizational behavior and one of its famous constructs, positive psychological capacities; the developable, measurable and managable psychological powers of individuals, we designed a model testing effects of servant leadership on psychological capacities of individuals in organizational settings and psychological capitals effect on employee productivity. We tested our model on white collar workers in Istanbul region of Turkey, by applying face to face and online surveys. Later, we analyzed our data in SPSS 20.0 program and we found that as we have supposed servant leadership behavior of leaders has a positive effect on positive psychological capacities of individuals which in turn effects positively their productivities.
