As we are now in a fast-changing era, both organizations and employees need to evolve continuously. To survive and drive sustainable growth in such a volatile environment, hiring and retaining employees who are willing to evolve together has become more and more important. Thus, many market-leading organizations have already started to put more emphasis on identifying talents with good culture fit in addition to competency fit.

Substantial research has showed that the fit between one's value and the company culture would drive productivity, retention and engagement. However, the term "value" is quite fuzzy among business leaders, HR professionals and I/O psychologists. "Value" is not only difficult to be clearly defined, but even more difficult to be assessed. We put tremendous effort into gaining a comprehensive understanding of the construct by reviewing literature in the past century across different fields, including Psychology, Sociology and Business.

The talk aims to review constructs, frameworks and models of values, and propose a comprehensive solution to fully understand one's values and drivers that are important in the workplace.

**As a complimentary part of the event, you might complete a psychometric assessment "CAL Value Inventory", a value questionnaire developed by our guest speakers from CAL Talent Solutions Limited.
