the sites hows?
Organizational Fit Matters!
“Those who fit well with the
[organizational] culture stayed longer,
were promoted faster, and
demonstrated greater commitment to
the firm. Interestingly, these outcomes
of person-culture fit mattered more for
performance than did the more
typical person-job fit we think of
which is how people’s knowledge,
skills and abilities fit the specific job.”
Values Culture Behaviors
List of continuums of values-what you need to assess on based on
how culture is defined in organizations
I am working on
these, you don’t have
to do anything with
this slide- I’ll add

Behaviors
“Adventurous”
“Bossy”
“I prefer a work

strict rules and
regulations.”
