Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Socialization processes help new employees learn the organization's way of doing things and assimilate into the culture. By strengthening these processes, the company can ensure that new hires understand and embody the company's core values and beliefs. Storytelling and rituals can also reinforce and communicate cultural norms, but they are not as directly related to the socialization of new employees. Developmental processes may be important for employee growth and advancement, but they are not directly relevant to changing the overall organizational culture.
