Abstract

This study presents a research model that describes how person–group (PG) fit affects continuous improvement (CI). Using the dyadic survey data from a public sector firm in Korea (N = 113), the study found that the relationships between PG fit and CI are moderated by team boundary conditions such as team-member exchange (TMX). The results revealed that a high level of TMX induces the negative effect of value fit on CI, whereas it strengthens the positive impact of ability fit on CI. Implications for theory, research, and practice are discussed.
