Description

Patience, treated as a resource teams can hold, gets a measuring stick in a 2026 study by Risheng Qiao and colleagues. Their subject is patient capital, a concept usually tracked with money metrics, here rebuilt from interviews and surveys in organizational settings.

Starting with grounded-theory coding, the team distilled five dimensions: self-control and patience, steady persistence, long-term goal drive, emotional and social skill, and adaptability. Factor analyses supported a second-order model with those five parts, and large surveys confirmed the scale measured reliably. A multilevel model then showed patient capital carrying part of the effect of transformational leadership onto team innovation performance. Qiao and colleagues offer the validated tool to managers who want to grow long-horizon strength in teams.
