Multicultural Experience
This resource examines how employee and environmental characteristics should match in a multicultural workplace. For example, when looking for someone to fill a construction position versus an office position, you will need to use different factors to judge the person's fit.
Conclusion
In compliance with the complementary perspective of person-environment fit, this study has dived into the relationship between demands-abilities fit, needs-supplies fit and employee creativity, as well as the impact of multicultural experience on the relationship. It has been revealed that, unlike previous research findings, employees with demands-abilities fit have lower creativity than those with demands-abilities misfit; nevertheless, the demands-abilities fit creates a growing impact on employee creativity with increasing multicultural experience. Additionally, the higher the needs-supplies fit, the stronger the employee creativity; and, the needs-supplies fit creates a growing impact on employee creativity with increasing multicultural experience.
