The present study has been done to determine the relationship between positive organizational behavior and organizational silence. The statistical population consisted of staff offices of Sepah Bank (1905 people); Using Cochran''''''''s formula, 320 people were selected stratified randomly as samples. As for the research objectives, the present study can be classified as an “applied research”, while as for data gathering, it is descriptive as a cross-sectional survey. Data reliability and validity were assessed using Cronbach''''''''s alpha coefficient and consulting managers of Sepah Bank as experts, and the result was confirmed using confirmatory factor analysis technique. The research hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling technique based on the results of the LISREL software. Hypothesis test results indicate that the positive organizational behavior has a significant negative relationship with organizational silence. Also results show that all dimensions of positive organizational behavior has a significant negative relationship with acquiescence silence, but about the quiscence silenence, only negative relationship with self-efficacy was confirmed and the relationship of hope, resilience and optimism was not significant with quiescence silence.
