Abstract: In order to achieve sustainable economic growth in a declining population, it is important to increase productivity through human resource development. In other words, it is important for companies to create an environment in which their employees can continue to develop their capabilities and produce more results. Given this background, this study aimed to examine the relationship between various behaviors promoting capabilities and outcomes. A survey of 673 employees of Company X, a general chemical manufacturer, was conducted. We found that organizational citizenship behaviors and voluntary job improvement behaviors were positively related to outcomes measured by supervisors f performance rating at non-managerial levels. At managerial levels, some of the innovative behaviors were found to be positively related to outcomes. Furthermore, learning behaviors were not positively related to outcomes regardless of position.
