Abstract：This paper attempts to provide solutions to existing problems in Qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) research from two aspects of the research approach and analysis technique. At the level of research approach, the differences between the QCA method and quantitative research method are expounded from three aspects: theoretical objectives, research questions, and realization approaches. At the level of analysis technique, the operational strategy of the whole application process (three stages) of the QCA method is expounded in detail. Finally, three directions of further optimizing the application of the QCA methods in management and organization research are proposed, which are improving transparency, adding temporality, and trying mixed methods.
