Value Orientation Evaluation and Psychological Regulation Based on Personality Traits

Abstract

One of the key issues in organizational development is to find employees that share the core traits with the organization. Hence, this paper attempts to develop an objective evaluation method for the value orientation of employees in an organization. Based on the index system of the overall value orientation of the organization, the 360-degree feedback method was adopted to collect the relevant data from each member of the organization, and determine his/her value orientation. Specifically, the weight distribution vector of the data of a person in the index system was adopted as his/her value orientation vector. According to the value orientation and development strategy of the organization, the specific steps of psychological regulation strategy were put forward for the members of the organization, in the light of the regulatory focus theory and the regulatory fit theory. The proposed strategy was successfully applied in a local enterprise. The application proves the effectiveness and people-first idea of our strategy. This research provides organization managers an effective tool for employee selection and evaluation.
