Abstract
ABSTRACT The mainstream opinion that scholars have on procrastination is they believe that such behavior is a type of dysfunctional behavior that can only cause adverse impacts. Although there is evidence for procrastination to have the potential to result in favorable personal outcomes, scholars have yet to give enough attention to the positive aspect of procrastination, its antecedents, and also the cognitive mechanisms that link procrastination to personal outcomes. We conducted the current grounded theory research in order to fill the gap in literature. We found that procrastinators could be divided into three categories: traditional procrastinators, quasi-procrastinators, and strategic procrastinators. We discussed the industrial and managerial implications of our research at the end of this paper. Keywords Procrastination; performance; grounded theory research; strategy
