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.
