Drawing on the social network theory, this paper studies the impact of different kinds of individual social capital on innovation. Meanwhile, we also take the cross-level perspective to analyze the influence of departmental values on the relationship between the social capitals and innovation. The results show that both soft and hard social capitals have positive impact on the innovation. In addition, the departmental value cross-levelly moderates the relationship between the hard part of individual social capital and innovation. We end with some implications for practice and future researchers.
