Data were collected from 201 executives level employees of a high-performance GLC in Malaysia. The findings revealed that employees need to have self-efficacy and optimism in order to be engaged in their work. Additionally, social job resources such as feedback and support are also found to be crucial to create high work engagement workforce. This study is significant to the top management, human resource practitioners, managers and supervisors in the understanding job and individual factors that would lead to work engagement.
