Abstract
The competitive edge attributed with a company lies in its employees' psychological capital. Through its understanding of human state of mind, it is meant to boost employees' work involvement. As a result, team's enthusiasm and bonding would be triggered to enhance the work performance, which eventually forms the company's competitive advantages. The target participants in this study were 8 R & D employees in an IC company in Hsinchu. This study investigated the current condition of psychological capital and job involvement in this particular company, and further the correlation between these two areas with these employees. Mixed methods were employed, which were the quantitative analysis and the semi-structured interviews. From the in-depth interviews, the suggestions are provided to promote the positive psychological capital for the reinforcement of job involvement. These suggestions are expected to assist the target company of this study to effectively manage employees' psychological capital to promote their job involvement and ultimately keep the company's competitive edge.
