Abstract: This study examines the relationship between Psychological Capital (PsyCap) and stress management among entrepreneurs and their early employees, highlighting its contribution to enhanced well-being and long-term venture success. Using a survey-based approach, the research examines the four PsyCap components – hope, resilience, optimism, and self-efficacy – and their relationship with stress reduction. Findings reveal that resilience has the strongest association, emphasizing its critical role in fostering recovery and adaptability. The study highlights the practicality of PsyCap, recommending resilience training as an accessible starting point for psychological development.
