Abstract

Global work experience is a highly valued asset both for individuals and organizations. Drawing on social capital theory, we examine the relationship between multicultural identity and creativity mediated by external networks. Using data from 349 number global employees, we found that multicultural identity have a positive relationship with individual creativity. Furthermore, our results show that external networks partially mediate the relationship between multicultural identity and creativity. We make several contributions to creativity and social capital literature.
