Impact of Employees Cultural Values and Their Cross-Cultural Work Environment on Organizational Identity

Abstract

This study investigated an impact of employee’s cultural values and their cross-cultural work environment on organizational identity. Data was collected from employees in the U.S. firm embracing different cultural values. The results indicate that proposed hypotheses are supported. Employees are more likely to identify themselves with the organization when they have a congruent cultural fit between employees and their work place. Based on the findings of the study, implications are discussed.
