“…It is also noteworthy that research on OVC have crossed boundaries and has been carried out in the West and the East. Indeed, cross-cultural value diversity plays a key role in organisations, representing an important aspect of value congruence studies (Vveinhardt, 2017). The extensive cultural interactions resulting from globalisation have opened almost all cultures to incorporate new values, making each Source: Developed by authors.…”

“…Recently, efforts have been taken to develop more comprehensive frameworks of OVC expanding the scope of OVC studies over value categories, measurement methods, and effects of OVC. For instance, Vveinhardt and Gulbovaite (2016); Vveinhardt (2017) have developed a model of eight stages which incorporates measuring the OVC by assessing the strength and evaluating the impact of OVC. They propose a typology for measuring OVC as a part of this model, which incorporates both perceived and subjective expressions of OVC through a two-step investigation based on direct and indirect measurement.…”

Multiple perspectives of measuring organisational value congruence

Given the diverse conceptualisations used in the measurement of organisational value congruence (OVC), the purpose of this paper is to propose an integrated typology of measurement criteria -as a methodological and measurement guideline -that can be employed in operationalising the measurement of OVC. Based on a review of over forty empirical articles, this typology proposes a path forward to operationalise the measurement of OVC by selecting from the proposed criteria and alternative dimensions to match the specific aims of researchers more comprehensively. The typology thus proposed identifies six key criteria and 12 dimensions therein. It further presents how different combinations of alternative dimensions in measuring OVC are used and can be used to best suit different objectives of researchers. As a concept matrix, this typology would specifically be useful for future researchers to identify how best to measure OVC to match their specific study objectives and facilitate rational comparison of OVC studies, permitting sensible knowledge sharing. Further, this typology can be extended to locate the best possible combinations for operationalising the measurement of OVC for future research.

Over the past 20 years, there has been considerable expansion, particularly spirituality theory in the workplace. Simultaneously, there has been a growth of research, most especially in practitioner publication into generational differences. The study's context is human resource (HR) policy and procedures in the workplace. Through this prism, generational perspectives and religious theory are compared and scrutinised within the United Kingdom. Two major religious groups (Muslim and Christian) and three-generational categories (Millennials, Generation X, and Baby Boomers) were selected to explore different attitudes, with participants identifying as belonging to religious groups outside of these two major religions, categorised as 'Other.' This study adopts a quantitative approach, with questionnaires gathering employees' perceptions of spirituality policy within their place of work. Although the study found differences in expectations between the religious groups and between the three generations, there is greater homogeneity than a difference in that the results provide limited support for workplace spirituality. Indeed, the study raises more questions than answers. The study uncovered areas ripe for informed debate around personal values, generations, and spirituality in the workplace. This is a relatively new research area, and our findings are in line with others that suggest that employee spiritual well-being is both underresearched and underexplored by organisations. Changing the current intransigence around the place of spirituality is overdue.

Pitfalls Between the Family Lifestyle and the Professional Career or Mission. Examining A Biblical Family Case Study

Family and work have been two fundamental values of humanity since ancient times. Building a career and/or a family life, taking parents roles need to assume different responsibilities. Functioning between these two environments requires an awareness and prioritization of the values, time and roles assumed. In this paper we focused on the examination of roles, working time and dual (dis)functionalities between work and family environments, the prioritization of them in Old Testament. In my examination I used qualitative methodology: through Biblical document analyses I designed a family case study and I examined the dual roles and the functionality of Moses in the time of the exodus of Israel people from Egypt.
