Besides, expatriates, in medical technology industry, leaving home might neglect the family to result in imbalance between work and family. In this case, work-family conflict reveals the importance on expatriates. Expatriates in medical technology industry would appear psychosocial stress and conflict between work and life due to expatriation. Taking expatriates’ supervisors and expatriates in medical technology industry in southern Taiwan as the research object, total 360 copies of questionnaire are distributed, and the 278 valid copies are retrieved, with the retrieval rate 77%.

The promotion of new and competitive industries through cross-sectoral inter-organizational collaborations are tackled in many regions globally. This study explores the management of facilitating collaboration with consideration of the planned approach to change based on change management theory. The “initial conditions,” “field,” and “emerging interaction toward the collaborations” are clarified as key elements for management through intervention. It is considered how these interventions are implemented on these elements. A conceptual model for considering comprehensive management of the self-organization process toward collaboration is proposed. In the case study, experiences of the medical technology industry of three German states are examined. The activities of cluster organizations of these states, which provide services to facilitate cross-sectoral collaborations, are scrutinized. The results of the case study are comparatively analyzed, and the modified conceptual framework is depicted by reflecting the findings of the study. The implications are then discussed.

In face of the advance of technology, increase in competitors, and shortening product life cycle, enterprises could face market change and competition with other enterprises through constant innovation, e.g. creation of new knowledge, to maintain corporate competitive advantage. With better relationship between team members and other members, members present more social interaction to acquire more knowledge. In order to maintain more relational capital, individuals would invest in more resources, including interaction with others or providing message, resources, or knowledge required for others. In this case, individuals with more social interaction would be willing to share knowledge with others. Employees in medical technology industry in Fujian, as the research samples, are distributed 450 copies of questionnaire in this study. After deducting invalid and incomplete ones, 316 valid copies are retrieved, with the retrieval rate 70%. According to the results, suggestions are proposed, expecting to help employees in medical technology industry possess high-level professional knowledge and skills to deal with complicated work and develop the effectiveness of organizational resource application, regardless of medical technology industry product knowledge or customer needs, to achieve organizational performance.
