“…We found just three previous similar works: Dominko and Verbič [ 13 ], who analyzed many words together, related with subjective well-being and happiness, and specifically in the field of economics; Fabricio et al [ 14 ], who studied the term flourishing, but in relation with work contexts and selecting a much smaller dataset; Rusk and Waters [ 15 ], who bibliometrically studied the use of the term positive psychology; meanwhile, the current study is specifically about the conceptual use of human flourishing, with a large dataset, and emphasizing the transdisciplinary view.…”

Human flourishing is a thriving concept, whose use has greatly increased among academic researchers from a variety of fields, from the arts and humanities and psychology to the social and environmental sciences and economics. To better understand the concept’s success, this work proposes a bibliometric review, in which statistical methods and data mining were used to analyze 1829 documents, chosen from the Scopus database by searching the term “human flourishing”. Through cluster and network analyses, the study shows the concept’s evolution and composition, as well as its current tensions and trends, in which the predominantly psychological approach is being compensated with social concerns and the search for justice. Furthermore, the concept’s strong philosophical roots provide it with abstract richness and great fertility, which can be seen in keywords, such as virtue or eudaimonia. This bibliometric review proved to be useful for this type of study, despite the limitations imposed by the characteristics of the Scopus database itself.

“…On the Other hand, leisure activities may facilitate stress alleviation, enhance well-being and positively affect mental health and cognitive and physical functions (Sala et al, 2019 ; Shen et al, 2022 ). In this vein, some organizations have used leisure at work, integrating leisure activities inside the workspace, as it can increase employee personal expressiveness and flourishing, which is related to authenticity (i.e., freely behaving, and thinking by core values), well-being, mental health, and happiness, positively impacting work identification, engagement, resilience, and performance (Fabricio et al, 2020 ; Haddon, 2018 ; Lacanienta et al, 2019 ).…”

Entertainment games have traditionally been articulated as leisure. However, they have also been used in the work context, in the form of serious games or gamification. In this qualitative research, we aimed to investigate the purpose of games used in the work context. To accomplish this, we conducted six semi-structured interviews and analyzed the discourses of the heads of the companies that produce serious games or gamification projects for work environments. Based on these statements, we assessed the views of the work context, the workers, and the projects the companies produce. We found that games have acquired different purposes, such as employee control to increase organizational results or enhance workers’ happiness and wellbeing. Although these purposes seemed to stand out in all the analyzed speeches, several other different purposes emerged, according to the conditions of entry into the market and the type of projects produced.

“…Desse modo, avaliando os conceitos abordados pelos estudos, pode-se considerar que o florescimento no trabalho se baseia em um conjunto de dimensões, sendo elas: emoções positivas, engajamento, relacionamento, significado/propósito e realização(SELIGMAN, 2011). Ou seja, os achados reforçam a compreensão de que o florescimento é um construto multidimensional(SELIGMAN, 2011;FABRICIO et al, 2020) e com falta de consistência conceitual e operacional (HUPPERT; SO, 2013).Ademais, no que tange às definições acerca das práticas de GP, verifica-se que a prática de avaliação de desempenho é aplicada no sentido de almejar melhorias e proporcionar oportunidades de crescimento, servindo como "ponte" de comunicação entre os trabalhadores e gestores/superiores. As práticas éticas e espirituais, associadas às práticas de GP, são vistas como elementos dos valores morais para a salubridade ética das organizações e trabalhadores, as quais podem afetar o trabalho e florescimento dos trabalhadores no ambiente laboral.…”

É consensual na literatura que as práticas de gestão de pessoas (GP) possuem associação positiva com o bem-estar no trabalho, podendo influenciar a vivência do estado de florescimento dos trabalhadores no contexto laboral. Desse modo, dada a relevância da temática, esta revisão integrativa da literatura objetiva analisar a produção científica sobre as contribuições das práticas de GP para o florescimento no trabalho. Para tanto, efetuaram-se buscas nas bases de dados Web of Science, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Scielo, Spell e Sage, no período de 2011 a 2021. Com base nos critérios de seleção foram trabalhados seis artigos, dos quais analisou-se o delineamento, participantes, instrumentos, objetivos, resultados, definições sobre florescimento no trabalho e práticas de GP, bem como as indicações para estudos futuros, permitindo elaborar uma agenda de pesquisas. Os resultados demonstraram a carência de estudos interseccionando os temas, especialmente a nível nacional. Ainda, buscou-se conhecer os conceitos de florescimento e das práticas de GP (avaliação de desempenho, práticas éticas e espirituais, condições de trabalho e envolvimento no trabalho), constatando-se uma multiplicidade conceitual. Ficou evidenciado que são muitas as contribuições das práticas de GP sobre o bem-estar no trabalho e, também, no florescimento do trabalhador.
