The research consisted of mainly three parts. At first stage, 720 employees had completed the questionnaire facets that asked the stress perceived by employees, the work situation and the self-factors, etc., then 23 people among them followed the in-depth interview which identified the coping strategy in face with job management from the viewpoint of career development. Secondly, the interview(40 people) and the questionnaire(341 responds) were conducted to identify the personality characteristics of entrepreneurs related to their self-factors that influenced on the energies and the sense of success. Finally, two experiments were programmed to clarify personal and psychological factors taking part in the anti-stress resources. In experiment 1, it was proven that defensive pessimism as a cognitive coping functioned effectively about the anxiety reduction and good task performance. In experiment 2, cardiovascular system reaction was examined to verify the undoing effect of positive emotion recovering the ANS activity balance influenced by stress reaction. From those results, it was revealed that the maintain of healthy habits, positive self-factors (authenticity, hope and affirmative feelings and others) and positive copings were effective resources as the anti-stress resource. In addition, it is suggested that effective cognitive coping strategy (i.e.,defensive pessimism) eases the negative influence in the stressful situation.
