Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)We all once was, now are, or in the future will be, a newcomer of organizations. It has been less speculated, however, the meaning of entry into organization, socialization to it, and HRM policies to lessen voluntary turnover after newcomers' entry both in academia and management practices. In 1992, I had so much difficulty in writing up my dissertation on organizational socialization in terms of effective strategies to make newcomers socialized to company's culture. This book was a breakthrough; the sections of past process models of socialization and the review of Realistic Job Preview study were really helpful. After vigorous library-work afterward, I came to believe this book was perhaps the best summary on organizational entry (anticipatory socialization) and socialization. Only one that lacks may be the explanation about variety of socialization tasks (thus I rate 4-star). A handy but helpful guidebook both for academics and practitioners. Highly recommended.
