Abstract
Organizational socialization is the process by which an individual acquires the social
knowledge and skills necessary to assume an organizational role (Van Maanen &
Schein, 1979). Organizational socialization, or onboarding, is the process by which
newcomers become full-fledged, productive organizational members (Lousis, 1980;
Van Maanen and Schein, 1979). Although socialization occurs whenever employees
change roles or cross boundaries within an organization (Van Maanen & Schein, 1979),
it is most intense when one first joins an organization (Bauer et al., 1998).
