Organization Culture and Fit

 

Developing an understanding of core culture allows a business to leverage the strengths of that culture in execution of its strategy and achievement of its vision.  Organizational culture and organizational fit are often vague concepts that are difficult to measure. Yet not knowing how new recruits are going to fit into your culture leaves the future productivity of your workforce to chance; and even the most brilliant strategic initiatives can fail if implementation ignores cultural issues.  t you will have employee attrition problems and at worst you could have a dysfunctional and unproductive workforce.

C-Fit, the approach Career Potentials uses to assess culture and fit, puts an end to the confusion that frequently surrounds Organizational Culture.  C-Fit functionality is divided broadly into three areas:

  • The ability to assess organizational culture (and/or subcultures)
  • The ability to capture an individual's values and workplace preferences
  • The ability to calculate the match or "fit" between these two sets of data

Knowing the values, character, and behaviors of the organization provides essential insights for success. Cultural assessments involve the careful blending of both qualitative and quantitative data.  C-Fit is based on an Organizational Culture Assessment methodology called the OCP (Organizational Culture Profile) developed by professors at University of California at Berkeley, Stanford Graduate School of Business and Santa Clara University.  This is combined with a focus group methodology that assesses forces of change within the organization

C-Fit's functionality gives any business the ability to effectively map the Corporate Culture, subcultures and the team dynamics of their entire organization. C-Fit works well with:

  • Selection and Retention Initiatives
  • New Team Building
  • Workforce Redeployment & Workforce Development
  • Business Integration
  • Business Strategy Realignment
  • Cultural Evolution
  • Leadership Coaching and Development
  • Succession Planning

The C-Fit solution is an assessment and advisory program that helps organizations engage and connect with key stakeholders to create a committed culture. The C-Fit process provides an accurate, objective and realistic assessment of an organization’s cultural strengths and critical barriers to success.
