Finding Your Fit
Fit in the workplace is described as an alignment of values, beliefs, and behaviors between employees and employers.
When an individual “finds their fit,” they are more motivated, healthier, and perform better, benefitting both
themselves and their employer. It’s like finding the perfect puzzle piece—when everything fits together, everyone
thrives.
