This study aims to examine the relationship between positive thinking and task performance among healthcare employees and to investigate the mediating role of life satisfaction in this relationship. A conceptual model grounded in the literature on positive psychology and organizational behavior was tested using data collected from 254 participants working in the healthcare sector through a survey method. Analyses conducted with SPSS revealed that positive thinking is significantly and positively associated with task performance. Furthermore, life satisfaction was found to partially mediate the relationship between positive thinking and task performance. The findings indicate that healthcare employees’ positive cognitive tendencies not only enhance their psychological well-being but also improve performance outcomes by strengthening their level of life satisfaction. Accordingly, the study emphasizes that organizational practices aimed at increasing employee satisfaction and life fulfillment constitute a strategic factor in improving performance within healthcare institutions. The research provides valuable theoretical and practical contributions to the literature.
