Controlling the Performance of Professional Employees through the Creation of Congruent Environments.

Abstract

Many problems arise from potential incompatibilities between characteristics of professional employees and characteristics of the organizational situation, specifically its control system. These incompatibilities may lead to pysfunctional conflict between the role expectations of the professional and organizational requirements, depending on the degree to which an incongruence exists between the two. A framework for conceptually analyzing congruence between individual, organizational and occupational components is offered and implications for the control system are made. (Author)
