I am starting a literature review on Organizational Culture models with the purpose of understanding the current state of science on evaluating Person-Organization Fit. All advise and information on this topic is welcome!
Dear Dibakar,
Thank you very much for sharing these resources - very useful, substantial information.
There may be another way to look into this. Admitting organizational culture is rarely entirely homogeneous, Myers-Briggs Type Indicator assessments that discern preferences for either Extraversion (E) or Introversion (I), Sensing (S) or Intuition (N), Thinking (T) or Feeling (F), and Judging (J) or Perceiving (P) can give helpful pointers on person–organization fit.
PS: For example, psychometric tests of personnel in the public sector suggest the best part are Sensing–Judging, notably ISTJs—Introversion, Sensing, Thinking, Judging. (The Keirsey Temperament Sorter dubs them “inspectors”.) But, ENTPs—Extroversion, Intuition, Thinking, Perception—in the public sector are rarities. (The Keirsey Temperament Sorter refers to ENTPs as “inventors”.)
Dear Olivier,
Thank you for adding another perspective: analyzing differences between organizations, sub-units and roles by their dominant personality profiles is also a possible avenue. However, I focus on the Organizational Culture perspective this time, on approaches to measure the dimensions of Organizational Culture from behavioral or values perspective. I'd like to map and compare the various Organizational Culture Models.
