Abstract
The current wave of globalization has changed the way in which organizations tend to operate.
There is a huge consensus that it has led to the development and an inter connected business place; but a huge pressure of performance and competition has also been imposed on these organizations (Green et al., 2017). They have to adapt to the organizational changes as well as changes pertaining to economical, technological and social aspects (Sisodia et al., 2007). The upcoming employee base has to bridge between these changes and requirements. Thus, organizations are in need of the employees who are willing to go beyond not only in terms of hard work but also
ready to engage in approach which depicts learning, speed, resiliency and adapatability. A better engaged workforce can be achieved through the development of such an environment wherein positive emotions (involvement and pride) are promoted leading to better performances and well being of employees. Therefore, employees who have protean orientation will be able to survive better.
