Artykuł koncentruje się na osiąganiu ponadprzeciętnej efektywności organizacji na podstawie pozytywnej nauki o organizacji (positive organizational scholarship – POS). Prezentuje teoretyczne podstawy POS, następnie przechodzi do tematu powiązanego z pierwszym – organizacji wysokiej efektywności (high performance organization – HPO). Przedstawione są kluczowe modele cech takich organizacji, podjęta jest również próba zintegrowania pozytywnej nauki o organizacji z cechami organizacji wysokiej efektywności. Na podstawie tak opracowanego zestawu charakterystyk przeprowadzono badania empiryczne, z wykorzystaniem analizy obwodowej danych (data envelopment analysis – DEA). W badaniach, dzięki zastosowanej metodzie, zidentyfikowane zostały firmy o najwyższej efektywności, a następnie podjęta została próba identyfikacji stosowanych przez nie metod zarządzania, prowadzących do wysokiej efektywności. Artykuł zakończony jest przedstawieniem ograniczeń przeprowadzonych badań, a także możliwych kierunków badań w przyszłości.
