The document discusses organizational culture and socialization. It defines organizational culture as shared implicit assumptions that guide how an organization operates. New employees learn the culture through socialization, which involves four phases - prearrival, encounter, change and acquisition, and metamorphosis. Socialization tactics can be collective or individual, formal or informal. Mentoring plays an important role in socialization, with mentors providing career and psychosocial support to their protégés. Effective mentoring networks are diverse and allow for developmental relationships in multiple systems.
