Interactionist Perspective |
Behavior is a function of the person and the situation interacting with each other. Ex. a shy person may speak up in class if participation is graded. What we bring to our work environment and what the environment demands influences our behavior and work attitudes. Person-job fit (abilities) and person-organization (values) fit are positively related to job satisfaction and commitment. |

Person-organization fit |
The degree to which a person’s personality, values, goals, and other characteristics match those of the organization. Values are not important to everyone and are not a good indicator of job performance. People who have worked in multiple companies tend to understand the effect of a company’s culture better and therefore pay closer attention to whether they will fit in with the company when making their decisions. Good relationships with supervisors and the company make being a misfit less important. |

Key Takeaway |
While personality, values, attitudes, perceptions, and KSAOs are important, behavior is determined by the person and the situation. Managers need to consider the individual and the situation when making Organizing decisions about the job or when engaging in Leadership activities like building teams or motivating employees. |
