Description

<p>This study aimed to examine the effect of a program for managers based on acceptance and commitment therapy. A group program totaling three 90-minute sessions was implemented on 58 managers. Using a Bayesian approach, organizational unit work performance was evaluated before and after the program as the primary outcome. The results showed no improvement in the performance of 18 organizations, which did not support the hypothesis (EAP (expected a posteriori) estimation ＝−0.19 [95％ highest density intervals −0.53, 0.17]). However, individual managers’ psychological inflexibility was indicated parenthetically as one of the process outcomes. The results showed a decreasing trend in the psychological inflexibility of 27 managers, supporting the direction of the hypothesis, although the credible interval included 0 (EAP estimation ＝−1.02 [95％ credible interval−2.11, 0.09]). Secondary outcomes included showing the possibility of increased support around organizational units as well as increased leadership behavior of managers at the individual level.</p>
