Analysis of Organizational Personality Traits Perceived by Future Employees

摘要

India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world with most young and competitive workforce. Millions of graduates are hitting the job market every year and eventually joining the organizations. It is important to understand the perception of these job seekers about organization and measure the gap between the same reality. The paper analyses and assess the perception of future employees about an organization based on five organizational traits (Trustworthiness, Innovativeness, Style, Thrift and Dominance) given by Slaughter et al 2004. The analysis validates the five important traits perceived by future employees that a organization must have. The responses were collected by a self designed questionnaire from postgraduate students. The principal component analysis divided traits into five factors. The paper finds that organizational personality traits suggested by Slaughter et al 2004 are valid for future employees and self designed measurement scale used in the study to collect responses conforms to the traits mentioned by the Slaughter et al 2004 in Indian context too.
