[ Who are you and why are you here? What does your workplace exist to be and to do? Is the place where you work a good fit for you? This chapter offers an in-depth exploration of meaning, organizational mission, and fit in organizations. The background and definition of meaning-mission fit are established. We learn how values, goals, and alignment come together to form the basis of our experience with work.]
