Abstract This study attempts to investigate and analyze the impact of organizational culture and degree of fit between university faculties on behavioral outcomes in our case study. The basic question is that how much organizational culture and degree of fit (mis) between university faculties and university could influence the organizational citizenship behavior and their intention to remain in university. This study uses the survey research method to answer the basic question. The research population includes 393 individuals consisting of all of the full time university faculties in Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman (1385). Further, based on the pilot study and using stratified sampling method, 205 individuals were selected as sample. The results confirmed the impact of person-organization fit on organizational behavior of university faculties. Furthermore, no significant relationship between the values fit and intention to remain, goals fit and intention to remain, and work environment fit and organizational behavior (organizational citizenship behavior and intention to remain), was found with 95% confidence level. Finally, the relationship between the type of organizational culture and person-organization fit was statistically significant.
