RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PSYCHOLOGICAL CAPITAL AND INNOVATION BEHAVIOR OF EMPLOYEES IN HIGH-TECH ENTERPRISES
Abstract
Innovation is particularly important to high-tech enterprises. However, the innovation ability might be affected by the psychological capital of employees. This paper aims to identify the relationship between psychological capital and innovation behavior of employees in high-tech enterprises. First, the author summarized the related theories of psychological capital and innovation. Then, a questionnaire survey was carried out on five high-tech enterprises of different scales, and the survey results were analyzed in details. The results show that, in terms of psychological capital, employees performed better in work independence than decision-making; in terms of innovation, employees were not highly involved in innovation, despite the stress on innovation by high-teach enterprises; employees with high innovation ability generally performed well in self-recognition, working attitude and other aspects of psychological capital; employees with high psychological capital are closely involved in innovation activities. The research results provide a theoretical basis for employee training and the management of high-tech enterprises.
