15. Conclusions Major conclusion is there are important cross national differences . The data show little evidence for a mediating role of planning styles in the positive spiral of resources, well-being and performance in Germany and The Netherlands. However, in the Polish sample, both critical point and full planning related to more work engagement. Strangely, both planning styles and work engagement related negatively to subjective success . Robustness checks showed similar relations with objective indicators of business performance. Question is what moderator is at work ?
