Abstract: Positive organizational behavior (POB) follows the lead of recently emerging positive psychology, which is driven by theory and research focusing on people's strengths and psychological capabilities. The aim of POB is to catalyze a change in psychology from a preoccupation only with repairing the worst things in life to also building the best qualities in life. Therefore, organizations pay more attention to Positive Organizational Behavior due to the changing and competitive nature of business. The main purpose of this study was to explore the relationship among Hope and Pliability with Job contentment and Organizational Citizenship Behavior. Statistical population of this survey included employees of public organization in Iran that a sample (N=108) of those test of the POB states of hope and pliability. The findings generally support that hope and pliability have strong Relationship with job Satisfaction and OCB and those relationships would be stronger when hope and pliability were high. This study adds to the understanding of key†role positive organizational behavior in organization and job†related performance.
