Marisa Salanova, professor of Social Psychology at the Universitat Jaume I (UJI), has been admitted as a full member of the Royal Academy of Medicine of the Valencian Community (RAMCV) in the section of Related Sciences (Social Psychology). The event was held in the main hall of the Faculty of Medicine in Valencia and included a speech by Dr. Juan Viña Ribes, who was responsible for responding to the new academician's speech on behalf of the corporation.

In her keynote speech, titled “Healthy and Resilient Organizations: An Approach from Positive Mental Health”, Marisa Salanova tackled the crucial topic of building healthy and resilient organizations through the lens of positive mental health, an essential component of organizational strategy. She emphasized the importance of mental health in the workplace as a public health issue and stated that “organizations that invest in well-being receive tangible benefits, including increased productivity, reduced absenteeism, a healthier work environment, and a stronger connection between individuals and organizational goals”.

Marisa Salanova also presented the HERO model, developed by the WANT research group she leads at the UJI, which enables organizations to be evaluated and transformed through healthy organizational practices, healthy employees, and positive organizational outcomes. She further highlighted the proven effectiveness of positive psychological interventions aimed at improving well-being, preventing burnout, and enhancing performance, which operate at the individual, group, leadership, and organizational levels. According to Salanova, “research demonstrates lasting effects on well-being, employee engagement and performance, both in the public sector and in private companies”.

To conclude, she referred to future challenges and lines of research, including the integration of positive psychology and technology, especially artificial intelligence; the holistic approach to well-being, the understanding of the mechanisms that explain the impact of positive psychological interventions or the inclusion of diversity, among other key areas.
