Outline of Research at the Start

This research will investigate whether and how subjective well-being at work can be shared, and if firms can support the sharing of this emotional state to achieve higher job performance. A combination of qualitative and quantitative analyses of employees in Japan and France will be conducted.

Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research investigates how companies can nurture the sharing of positive emotions among employees to promote workplace subjective well-being, an increasing important issue in today's environment of accelerating change. Furthermore, the study investigates the influence of national cultural with qualitative and quantitative studies in both Japan and France.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

Emotional contagion in both the Japanese and French workplace was found to be primarily influenced by the level of familiarity, and to a lesser extent group climate.
