Abstract
The majority of previous research on start-ups consist of research on leading variables that affect the entrepreneurial intention related to start-ups established by young people, college students or senior citizens, and the influencing relationships regarding start-ups in the sense of their form such as independent start-ups, franchising start-ups, small business start-ups, etc. It is difficult to find research on entrepreneurial intention targeting office workers. This study investigates the question of how office workers' entrepreneurial mindset affects their entrepreneurial intentions, focusing on mediating role of social capital and moderating role of state-action orientation. We use survey data to empirically test the relationships between the variables in question. This study finds the presence of the positive effect of entrepreneurial mindset on social capital that significantly promotes entrepreneurial intention, demonstrating mediating role of social capital. We understand the existence of moderator, action state, showing that entrepreneurial intention is affected by interaction of entrepreneurial mindset and action state, not entrepreneurial mindset alone. We propose some policy implications based on the results of this study, and lists the limitations of the study.
