Presentation Description: While organizational culture has been touted since the early 1990’s as essential for business success, there has been little connection between organizational culture, individual “fit” and the employment branding process. We have found that having the knowledge of “who you are” and “who you are not” from a cultural perspective, can support the creation of an employment experience that is both authentic and congruent. By paying attention to congruence, alignment and fit, organizations can create an employment brand that will attract, retain and repel employees. This process of ensuring “fit” leads to better placements and an increase in the ROI of recruitment and retention programs. This presentation is extremely powerful and straight forward. We will look at fit from the individual and organizational perspective.
Participants will understanding how to:
- Assess and define an organization’s cultural framework
- Understand how to identify subcultures within a culture
- Uncover your personal value system and identify alignment with a company’s stated values
- Identify key indicators of organizational culture to uncover the likelihood of cultural “fit”
- Build a congruent employment brand in the context of organizational culture
- Clearly define “fit” to identify the type of employees you desire to attract and retain and those you would like to repel
