Abstract Based on Integrative Model of Human Growth at Work as the theoretical framework, this study explores how employees' perceived high-involvement human resource practices positively influence employee innovative behavior through promoting employee's thriving at work, as well as the cross-level moderating role of work group supervisor's humble leadership style on such relationship.The theoretical model is tested with multisource questionnaire surveys collected from 402 employees at two waves.Multi-level regression technique and Monte Carlo assessment are employed to test the hypotheses.The results indicate that thriving at work fully medicates the positive relationship between high-involvement human resource practices and employee innovative behavior, besides, work group humble leadership moderates the relationship between high-involvement human resource practices and employee thriving at work such that the relationship is stronger within work groups of high level humble leadership.The cross-level moderated mediation also demonstrates that the indirect relationship between high-involvement human resource practices and employee innovative behavior through thriving at work is stronger when humble leadership of work group is stronger.This study enriches the knowledge on the relationship between high-involvement human resource practices and employee innovative behavior and provides constructive decision-making basis for managers to effectively stimulate employee innovative behavior.
