摘要：This study ascertains whether three positive organizational behaviour capacities (optimism, self-efficacy and self-monitoring) predict attitude towards organizational change. Design of this study was cross-sectional, and data were collected with self-report measure. One hundred sixty-nine employees were drawn from 21 organizations in Delta State, Nigeria. The participants were made of 108 (64%) females and 61 (36%) males, with the mean age of 40.21 years (SD, 9.13). Simple regression analysis revealed that optimism, self-efficacy, and self-monitoring, positively and significantly predicted attitude towards organizational change. While multiple regression analysis revealed that only self-efficacy positively and significantly contributed to attitude towards organizational change. It was concluded that the predictors influence employees’ attitude towards organizational change with self-efficacy contributing the highest influence to organizational change attitude. It was recommended that for successful employees change acceptance, optimism, self-efficacy and self-monitoring should be structured into policies and strategies for organizational implementation.
