Leading to Grow and Growing to Lead: Some Lessons from Positive Organizational Scholarship The purpose of this paper is to use the lens of Positive Organizational Scholarship (POS) to offer new insights to how to grow leaders. We reframe the “Assess/Challenge/Support” model of leadership development created by the Center for Creative Leadership through a POS perspective. In leadership development, the CCL model is typically implemented by (1) focusing on performance gaps, (2) closing the gaps by introducing discomforting challenges, and (3) having the organization provide formal support (e.g., through mentoring). A POS perspective, drawn from recent research on thriving (or growing) at work, takes a complementary but unique approach by (1) leveraging strengths instead of gaps, (2) providing challenges through positive jolts rather than hardships, and (3) co-creating support through the development of microcommunities. We suggest that this complementary approach can create healthy and sustainable growth because it creates high energy and learning. We close the paper by recognizing some of the complications in taking a POS approach to growing leaders.

Many public and private-sector organizations continue to rely on the Dictionary of Occupational Titles (DOT) as an important source of occupational information; however, the DOT is no longer being revised, leaving these DOT users to rely on an increasingly outdated source of occupational information. We used job-component validity (JCV) to predict the worker-trait ratings contained in the DOT from job dimension scores collected using the Common-Metric Questionnaire (CMQ).Results indicated that the DOT worker-trait requirement ratings were generally quite predictable via JCV, giving practitioners a new tool that can help them cope with the loss of the DOT.
