TYPES OF SOCIALIZATION
PROGRAMMES
Formal/InformalThe more formal a socialization programme is, it is more likely that
management has participated in its design and execution and hence, the
newly employed will learn what the management desires.
If the programme is informal, success will depend more on the newemployees selection of the correct socialization agent.
Individual Vs CollectiveThe socializing programme either can be individual specific or for a group of
new entrants.The individual approach is likely to develop far less homogeneous views than
collective socialization

picture of how the organization operates.
