The Interactionist Perspective: The Role of Fit

Completion requirements

Read this section, which discusses the concept of workplace "fit". In today's business world, it is not enough to have the knowledge, skills, and abilities to execute the role and functions of a particular job - many organizations are relying more on fit. Fit refers to whether or not you have the personality and character dynamics to successfully integrate into the organization. In this section of the reading, you will explore how to identify several fit dynamics, such as person-job-position fit, person-organization fit, and more. You will also develop an understanding of how fit dynamics connect to and integrate with work behaviors.
