Abstract :
High-tech employees always possess high entrepreneurial qualities, owing to accumulation of work experience and knowledge. This paper introduces a perspective of embeddedness and establishes a conceptual model of hi-tech employees´ turnover and start new Arm. Then, we use Game Theory to analyze the relationship between human capital or social capital and employees´ rewards. Moreover, the result reveals how the factors based on job embeddedness influence employees´ decisions to quit their job and start own business. This finding provides some suggestion to manage mobility of employees and increase success rate of high potential entrepreneurship.
