Full textThe purpose of this study is to investigate how the onboarding of new employees, which during the ongoing covid-19 pandemic is largely done remotely, is affected in terms of design and quality, and how it is experienced by the new employee. The study is a qualitative interview-based study with an inductive approach. The sample consists of people who have started a new job in knowledge-based organizations during the period March 2020 to January 2021 and who have mainly been onboarded and worked remotely. The material has been analyzed thematically and the results have been analyzed and discussed based on previous studies of introduction processes, learning and socialization processes in workplaces. The results show that activities in the digital onboarding are similar to those that take place physically, but that the activities would benefit from being adapted to the conditions that telework and more digital interactions entail. Elements that occur naturally in a physical environment are perceived as artificial when they are replicated digitally and relationship building, which in previous research is stated as the single most important variable in an introduction, takes longer, both with colleagues and with the employer. A large responsibility is placed on the new employees to build relationships, seek information, understand the tasks and shape the work by themselves. Giving support from the employer by showing presence, support and understanding for this time-consuming process can increase the chance that the new employee feels valued, seen and thus also as part of the company.

Full textAs marcas tornaram-se na sociedade moderna mecanismos poderosos de diferenciação, identificação ao consumidor e vantagem competitiva de negócio. Algumas empresas associam a sua marca à qualidade e diferenciação dos seus produtos em relação aos seus concorrentes, contudo existem empresas que levam esta premissa mais além, e tentam associar à imagem de marca o atendimento que proporcionam ao cliente e a imagem dos seus colaboradores como fonte de diferenciação e identificação do consumidor. Com o intuito de aprofundar melhor este fenómeno, este trabalho de investigação é aplicado à realidade da Starbucks Coffee Portugal com o objetivo de compreender de que forma a empresa consegue envolver os seus colaboradores com a cultura, valores e missão da empresa, e consequentemente como é que os processos de socialização organizacional utilizados fomentam a que os seus colaboradores se sintam responsáveis e comprometidos com a empresa/marca, levando-os a adotar comportamentos de exposição da marca para o exterior e consequentemente torna-os a imagem da organização. Esta dissertação aborda a importância do desenvolvimento de employer branding e quanto este envolvimento com a empresa/marca por parte dos colaboradores é positivo para o sucesso organizacional.
As brands have become very powerful in our modern society, consumer identification and competitive business are advantageous tools for businesses to take advantage of. Some companies associate their own brand and quality with their competitors, but there are companies that take this premise further, and try to associate their brand image or service with the image of their employees as a source of differentiation and identification for the consumer. In order to better understand this phenomenon, this research work is applied to Starbucks Coffee Portugal in order to understand how the company is able to involve its employees with the culture, values and mission of the company. Consequently the processes of organizational socialization used was investigated, in essence theencouragement of the company's employees to feel responsible and committed to the company / brand, leading them to adopt behaviors of exposing the brand outside of work and subsequently making them the brand image of the organization. This dissertation focuses heavily on the importance of the development of employer branding and on how much the involvement of the employees with the company / brand is positive for organizational success.

Full textDisertacijos tikslas – išanalizuoti mentoriaus vaidmenį naujų darbuotojų socializacijos procese. Tyrime dalyvavo 373 nauji darbuotojai ir 56 mentoriai. Apklausiant naujus darbuotojus buvo vertinami jų socializacijos rodikliai (turima informacija, patiriamas nerimas darbe, jautimasis tikruoju organizacijos nariu, suvokta profesinė kompetencija, darbo ir organizacijos vertinimas), jų asmeninės (amžius, išsilavinimas, darbo patirtis, darbo pobūdis) bei artimiausios darbo aplinkos (vadovavimo stilius, vadovo ir pavaldinio santykių kokybė, grupės klimatas ir grupės dydis, ar buvo paskirtas mentorius) charakteristikos. Apklausiant mentorius buvo vertinamas jų įsipareigojimas organizacijai, pasitenkinimas darbu ir darbo motyvacija, mentorystės patirtis bei profesinė, socialinė ir andragoginė kompetencijos. Rezultatai rodo, kad geresnę ir blogesnę naujų darbuotojų socializaciją organizacijoje geriausiai diferencijuoja vadovo ir pavaldinio santykių kokybė, darbo grupės klimatas ir dydis bei mentoriaus skyrimas naujam darbuotojui. Mentorius turėjusių ir neturėjusių naujų darbuotojų socializacija yra panaši, tačiau jų neturėjusių darbuotojų imtyje didesnis darbo krūvis ir atsakomybė, teikiant informaciją tenka vadovui. Be to, mentorių neturėjusių naujų darbuotojų imtyje socializacijos rodiklių ir vadovo ir pavaldinio santykių kokybės, direktyvaus vadovavimo stiliaus, darbo grupės klimato koreliacijos statistiškai didesnės nei mentorius turėjusių imtyje.

Full textKnowledge in the field of organizational socialization is mostly based on studies conducted in relatively stable organizational environments. Based on the fact that today's working life is rather characterized by change and development, we see a need for supplementary studies. The purpose of this study has been to investigate how socialization of new employees looks like in newly created businesses, with the intention of developing knowledge on how new employees in such businesses are shaped in their role to become a worthy member of the organization. The study was conducted with the help of semi-structured interviews with employees in a business considered to be newly started. Based on a theoretical perspective of uncertainty reduction, three key findings emerged. The study shows that the new employees found very strong associations and social relations with each other. Because of the lack of other previously employed staff, all new employees saw themselves stepping into the organization as a community. The unstable nature of the organizational culture was something that contributed to a proactive behavior of the novices, where in the new business together with other new employees, they were more likely to pursue their own socialization with support and confirmation of each other in dealing with uncertainties that characterized both their and the business' first time.

Full textThe purpose of this paper is to study the teacher assistants initial period in the pilot project of municipality of Uppsala. Based on resources theory as a theoretical framework two research questions were asked; 1) In what way have internal and external resources contributed to the socialization process of teacher assistants? and 2) What consequences does the pilot project have on the teacher assistants socialization process? Semistructured interviews were used to ask eight teacher assistants employed in the pilot project about how they experienced the first time in the new workplace and what resources were important for their socialization. The result shows that the initial period of the employment was cautious and tentative, which was described as both positive and negative in terms of a soft start or a tardy start. On one hand the soft start promotes relationship development, but on the other hand the tardy start inhibits adaptation to work. The negative side shows how important it is that work tools are ready to be used when the new employee is introduced to the new work, otherwise it can create negative experiences. The results also show that the pilot project was characterized by a reciprocity where nobody really knew what the teacher assistant role would contain, and thus it became a new situation for all parties to relate to. Through these themes, the overall results shows that the pilot project from a socialization perspective was characterized by a double socialization.

Full textDifferently than in other EU countries, the level of employees’ socialization, i.e. employees’ representation and participation in enterprise level decision-making, in Lithuania is exceptionally low. In 2004 the Law on Works Councils was adopted and therefore the conditions for better employees’ socialization were created. The aim of this work is to evaluate how employees used opportunities provided by the Law, i.e. to measure the prevalence of works councils in Lithuania as well as their impact for employees’ socialization. The object of this work is works councils and their activities in Lithuania, the main hypothesis – works councils foster employees’ socialization. In order to evaluate the influence of works councils on employees’ socialization the theoretical as well as historical aspects of employees’ participation were analysed and survey of Lithuanian enterprises, employees and works councils’ members were carried out. The results achieved showed that on average 4% of Lithuanian enterprises have works councils elected and this share increases with the size of enterprise. The hypothesis raised was confirmed – in the most enterprises with works councils the collective agreements were signed (or collective bargaining took place), employees are consulted and receive all the information necessary to participate in decision making. Main proposals are related to the campaigns intended to inform works councils members, employees and society as a whole about the activities of... [to full text]

Full textMany organizations have some sort of onboarding process for their new employees. A successful onboarding process contributes to the new employees feeling at home at the organization as well as getting them up to speed quicker with what they are expected to do. For a large organization with multiple offices it can be a challenge to establish a clear and simple onboarding process for the new employee, which is also perceived as meaningful and achieves its objective. This study aims to investigate how the onboarding process for new employees can be planned during the first ninety days, in order to give the new employee a meaningful first time. This has been achieved through a pilot study that included interviews with managers and new employees at a consulting company. These interviews were analyzed by using relevant theories and previous research on the topic of onboarding. In combination with the relevant literature on that topic a concept proposal was developed for the onboarding process at this company. The study is based on educational theories that form the basis for a concept proposal, developed to enable good opportunities for new employees to learn and that provides a clear theme and consistency of the onboarding process. Furthermore the study investigates how this can be enabled or enhanced by digital means. The concept proposal contains possible solutions to provide for a successful onboarding process. From the results of the interviews we were able to distinguish four significant themes that are of importance when planning the onboarding. These themes are (i) clarity, (ii) become acquainted with colleagues and the company, (iii) practical matters and (iv) reality-based. In addition to these themes, the study is based on Bauer’s thoughts on onboarding and the study aims to fulfill that the onboarding process reaches a higher level according to Bauer.

Full textDuring the Covid-19 Pandemic, organizations have had to change the way they work, and more employees have had to work from home. This means that even new employees commence their employment remotely and are introduced to the organization remotely, meaning they go through the onboarding process remotely. Since the pandemic started approximately one year ago, there is limited research on how the onboarding process has been impacted and how the remote onboarding process has been experienced. This study’s purpose has been to create knowledge about how the onboarding of newemployees has been affected or changed during remote work. This has been created byexamining how new employees and those responsible for the onboarding have beenaffected by the onboarding process taking place remotely. To specify the purpose, the research questions were focused on employees from the same organization and who had worked the majority of their working hours remotely. The theory consisted of previous research around onboarding activities, organizational culture, socialization, and remote work. A case study design was chosen for this study. The selection of respondents was chosen through specific criteria’s, which included being from one organization, and the new employees had been working in the organization for a minimum of three months and not more than a year. To create an understanding of the experience of the onboardingprocess, qualitative semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight respondents, where three were in charge of the onboarding process, while the remaining five were new employees in the same organization. After the interviews, the material was transcribed and later became the empiricism for the study. The empiricism from these interviews showed above all that it was a challenge for the new employees to get to know their coworkers while working remotely. It was also difficult for the new employees to get an understanding of the organizational culture, this is supported by the theory as it shows that it can take a long time to understand the organizational culture. Additionally, there were only two out of five new employees who had a mentor from the start of the employment, and it was shown that a mentor would have been wanted. An analysis model was used, which was based on a previous model from Bauer (2010) called “The Four C’s” that consisted of four levels of what a successful onboarding process should consist of for new employees. Based on this model the organization reached the first level, which consisted of informing about rules, laws, and policies, while the remaining levels were partially achieved. The study shows that previous onboarding activities are still relevant, as well as mentorship, and the social aspect is extra important when the onboardingprocess is remote.

Full textAt each new employment, there is an introduction for new employees, a so-called onboarding. The onboarding process is an important process which, if carried out correctly, can generate that new employees more easily understand their role, gain increased motivation for daily work and feel a higher loyalty to their employees. An efficient onboarding process can lead to a number of different benefits, including increased profitability for companies. Due to covid-19, these processes have had to be carried out digitally remotely. This study examines the phenomenon of the onboarding process and compares the digital onboarding process with the physical onboarding process. The purpose was to discover what differences there are in the two processes and contribute with an understanding of which tools and communication channels can be used to its advantage. To examine this, seven semi-structured interviews and an online survey were conducted. To investigate how the process is structured, interviews were conducted with those who carry out the onboarding. To further measure perceptions from those who undergo onboarding, a web survey was shared. Collected data were further analyzed using a thematic analysis and a correlation analysis. The results showed that the structure of the different onboarding processes did not differ much. However, it was discovered that several elements, such as organizational socialization, were more difficult to achieve in the digital onboarding process. It also turned out that supervision in the form of mentorship is a desirable and positive tool for new employees, both for digital onboarding processes and for physical onboarding processes. These parts are discussed in the discussion where both advantages and disadvantages are addressed on the same themes. The conclusion of the study was that the biggest shortcomings of the digital onboarding process were the lack of tools that do not succeed in generating good enough socialization and a sense of belonging for new employees. With the help of theory and empirical data, suggestions are given on how companies can think in order to improve their onboarding processes. However, there are more development opportunities that are addressed in proposals for further research, where this thesis can be the basis for research topics.

Full textOnboarding av nyanställda på arbetsplatsen är bland det viktigaste och samtidigt den mest förbisedda processen vid hantering av humankapital. Onboarding är det engelska uttrycket för introduktion samt socialiseringsprocessen vid nyanställning. Onboarding är viktigt eftersom organisationer investerar tid och pengar för att rekrytera nyanställda och därför har organisationen inte råd med att nyanställda hamnar i utanförskap i början av karriären. Viktiga aspekter av onboarding att hjälpa organisationer att se till att nyanställda blir mer engagerade i sitt arbete, förbättra deras integration in i organisationen, förstärka deras lojalitet till organisationen samt minska personalomsättningen. Idag finns få studier om onboarding gällande den offentliga sektorn. Syftet med denna studie är att först presentera ett förslag till en teoretisk modell för onboarding för offentlig sektor sedan studera en existerande onboardingprocess hos Region Gävleborg och därefter vidareutveckla den teoretiska modellen för onboarding. Studien har uppfyllt sitt syfte genom att ta fram en teoretisk modell baserad på teorier om onboarding och socialisering, modeller från den privata sektorn, befintliga onboardingmetoder samt en intervju med HR-strateg från Region Gävleborg. Författarna har även analyserat rådata från Region Gävleborgs enkätundersökningar för att få en bättre förståelse av nyanställdas upplevelse av Region Gävleborgs onboarding. Studien inledes med att en teoretisk modell togs fram, sedan utarbetades en onboardingmodell för Region Gävleborg utifrån kartläggning av regionens onboardingprocess. Därefter validerades den framtagna teoretiska modellen och den utarbetade onboardingmodell av Region Gävleborgs HR-strateg. Vidare jämfördes studiens första utkast till teoretisk modell med Region Gävleborgs modell samt en onboardingmodell från den privata sektorn, vilket resulterades i en vidareutvecklad ny teoretisk modell för onboarding inom den offentliga sektorn.

Full textThis research is in the field of social psychology of work and organizations. It is interested in behavior organizational socialization of graduated Vietnamese young women. Adopting a systemic and constructivist approach, we think each person at work is « an active subject because plural and prospective » in his process of socialization and personalization. In an exploring view, we try to show that the socialization behaviours of young Vietnamese graduated are not only determined by their socio-biographical characteristics and their organizational contexts but also oriented by their psychological activity of meaning of work. After an exploratory investigation by interview, an extensive survey with questionnaire allowed us to inquire 435 young women graduates, from Master of Arts level, in a multiplicity of work spheres. First, the analysis of the results, allows establishing a typology of young Vietnamese graduates. The socio-biographical characteristics of the 4 classes are in significant relationships with the various behaviours of organizational socialization. When analyzing those first results, it seems that socio-economic and cultural context in the transition of labour and employment in Vietnam, stay a « collective determinant » for individual behaviours of workers. In addition, the results show the importance of axiological processes which are involved in the activities of our subjects, including the influence of the meaning of work, on the evaluation process by the subjects of the effects of their work activity. Over the contribution to describe the working behaviours of young graduates Vietnamese, these results provide recommendations both at a theoretical and at a practical level. At the theoretical level, they invited to enrich the notion of « plural subject » in the same professional sphere as literature doesn’t approach yet. Practically, they lead to propose training and professional guidance to make easier the professional insertion of young Vietnamese women and men
Thuộc chuyên ngành Tâm lí học lao động và các tổ chức, luận án này nghiên cứu các hành vi xã hội hóa nghề nghiệp của nữ trí thức trẻ Việt Nam. Vận dụng « tiếp cận hệ thống và xây dựng », chúng tôi cho rằng mỗi cá nhân là một « chủ thể tích cực vì sự xã hội hóa đa dạng và hướng đến tương lai » trong quá trình xã hội hóa và cá thể hóa. Trong khuôn khổ một nghiên cứu mở đường, chúng tôi muốn chỉ ra rằng các hành vi xã hội hóa nghề nghiệp của nữ trí thức trẻ Việt Nam không chỉ phụ thuộc vào những đặc điểm cá nhân - xã hội và đặc điểm của môi trường lao động mà họ thuộc về, mà chúng còn được định hướng bởi đặc điểm tâm lí của nữ trí thức và ý nghĩa của công việc đối với họ. Từ phỏng vấn bán cấu trúc ban đầu, chúng tôi đã làm điều tra mở rộng bằng bảng hỏi trên 435 khách thể, là những nữ lao động có trình độ từ Đại học trở lên, trong nhiều lĩnh vực nghề nghiệp khác nhau. Các kết quả thu được cho phép thiết lập một hệ thống phân loại các nữ trí thức thành 4 nhóm. Những đặc điểm cá nhân xã hội của 4 nhóm trí thức này có mối quan hệ có ý nghĩa với hành vi xã hội hóa nghề nghiệp của họ. Từ những phân tích ban đầu, chúng tôi nhận thấy hoàn cảnh kinh tế, xã hội và văn hóa trong sự chuyển đổi lao động và việc làm ở Việt Nam luôn có ảnh hưởng mạnh mẽ đến hành vi của người lao động. Bên cạnh đó, các kết quả cũng chỉ ra sự ảnh hưởng của các giá trị cá nhân đến hoạt động của chủ thể, đặc biệt là ảnh hưởng của ý nghĩa của công việc tới cách đánh giá hiệu quả hoạt động của chủ thể. Ngoài những đóng góp vào việc mô tả hành vi nghề nghiệp của nữ trí thức trẻ Việt Nam, kết quả nghiên cứu cũng cho phép chúng tôi đưa ra những kiến nghị cả về mặt lý thuyết lẫn thực tiễn. Về lí thuyết, các kết quả này mở ra việc bổ sung vào khái niệm « chủ thể đa dạng » không chỉ trong mối tương quan với các mặt khác nhau của đời sống là cuộc sống gia đình, cuộc sống nghề nghiệp, cuộc sống cá nhân và cuộc sống xã hội mà người lao động trẻ Việt Nam còn thể hiện là một « chủ thể đa dạng » ngay trong cuộc sống nghề nghiệp khi họ một lúc làm nhiều công việc. Điều này chưa được lý thuyết về xã hội hóa nghề nghiệp đề cập đến. Về mặt thực tiễn, luận án hướng đến những kiến nghị liên quan đến đào tạo và hướng nghiệp để làm thuận lợi quá trình gia nhập vào đời sống nghề nghiệp của giới trẻ Việt Nam

Full textWork in organizational socialization (OS) over the past five decades has focused more on theorganizational (Van Maanen and Schein, 1979), individual (Louis, 1980) and interactionist approach(Reichers, 1987). As for the relational approach, some research has considered relations with socializingagents, as a source of information for new employees (NE) (Bauer and Green, 1998; Morrison, 1993),and rarely as a "relation". which supposes a dynamic, and to a certain extent a reciprocity between theactors (Coyle-Shapiro, and Shore, 2008). New employee relationships play a key role in NE socialization,not only for the information they provide (Ostroff and Kozlowski, 1992), but also as a primary source ofsocial support (Bauer and Green, 1998). However, work relationships can make the process of OSstressful and difficult (Kammeyer-Mueller et al. 2013, Lapointe, 2013). We fit our research into thisapproach, and we aim to understand the role of labor relations in new employee socialization and itsconsequences. Therefore, we use the psychological contract (Rousseau, 1989) and the theory of resourceconservation (Hobfoll, 1989) to understand the reciprocal expectations and obligations in the context oflabor relations, and the consequences in terms of gain or loss of resources. The qualitative approachbased on a multiple case study allows us to answer our research questions. Thus, we selected five businesscases in the Cameroonian context and conducted semi-structured interviews with 69 new recruits, and 8organizational representatives. Data analysis was done through thematic content analysis (Miles andHuberman, 2003) using NVIVO 12 software. The results reveal that work / non-work relationships ortheir absence lead to accumulation or loss of personal, relational, and organizational resources. Spiritualresources seem inexhaustible and very useful in the context of loss of resources for NE. The contributionsof our thesis mainly lie in highlighting a typology of new socialized employees and the dynamics of theresources they mobilize in labor relations

Many new nurses resign during their transition period of organizational socialization in hospitals, but little is known about the key factors that influence the retention of new nurses. To investigate the most influential factors that affect the organizational socialization, this study makes suggestions for how transition education programs can be improved. The performance of the organizational socialization can be measured by many indicators, but it is difficult to improve them simultaneously due to the limited resources. A feasible way is to identify the central and influential indicators to improve transition education program in a stepwise manner. In this study, we propose an evaluation model to identify key success indicators for holistic new nurse transition education. First, through integrating literature review and an expert panel, various assessments of key indicators provided are modeled. Then, the decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) technique is adopted to build an interactive network and visualize the causal relationships between the evaluation indicators. Finally, an empirical case study is provided to demonstrate the proposed approach for improving the organizational socialization. The results show that “job skills”, “workflow”, “training process”, “standardized operating procedures”, “favorable interaction”, “work adaption”, and “experience exchange” play important roles in performance evaluation of organizational socialization. The proposed decision making approach could be considered as a reference for nursing administrators to enhance the performance of their new nurse training.

On the field of organizational socialization tactics, the focus of employee individual differences has been discussed a lot these years, yet employee manifest needs, which also an important one, are not been discussed well. Therefore, the current study examined the linkage between organizational socialization tactics and person-organization (P-O) fit and examined the moderating influence of employee manifest needs, including need for achievement, need for affiliation, need for autonomy and need for dominance. Using cross-sectional design and a web-based self-reported questionnaire, the participants were given to a website and finished the questionnaire. Results from a sample of 202 full time employees (mean tenure were 15 months) in Taiwan revealed a positive relationship between organizational socialization tactics and P-O fit. However, the association between firm’s socialization tactics and P-O fit was facilitated by need for achievement and need for affiliation that employee’s motivational needs or drives on their work-related behaviors. The results support the importance of an institutionalized socialization tactic and the importance of individual difference and the application for practice are discussed below.
