Rolul compatibilit tii dintre valorile individuale i valorile organizationale asupra mecanismelor motivatiei n munc

A strong organizational culture is diagnosed when its values are shared by its employees. The person-organization fit related to values received more attention as organizations become more interested in attracting and retaining the best employees. According to Locke’s motivation model (1997), goal choice, its difficulty and specificity are influenced by individual personality and values. Further, we considered that the goal and efficiency mechanisms (direction, effort and persistence) are being moderated by person-organization fit, values level. The hierarchical regression revealed a higher level of work motivation for employees perceiving a higher level of P-O fit, when they choose their work objectives. A motivational model that integrates P-O fit is proposed and implications for organizational practice are discussed.
