Let's Talk Club Management Ep. 57: Person-Organization Fit

Joining us for this episode is Matt Samel, PhD. Dr. Samel teaches at Johnson & Wales University in the College of Hospitality Management’s Center for Food & Beverage and serves at the JWU-Providence Student Chapter’s Faculty Advisor. We were fortunate to have him share his research with us this month. His focus of study is in organizational culture and person-organization fit and he dives right in to discussing the relevant findings from his work and we have a great conversation about the evergreen importance of defining workplace culture. Key takeaways include: 1. There is a significant relationship between an employee’s individual values and the culture of an organization operating in the private club segment. 2. There is a significant relationship between the culture of an organization operating in the private club segment and person-organization fit. 3. There is a significant relationship between person-organization fit and job satisfaction, intent to remain with an organization, and willingness to recommend the organization as a good place to work in the private club segment.
