You are new to an organization and do not really know what to expect about the socialization process. You recently received your MBA and have an undergraduate degree in computer science. Your new firm is a software development company with an emphasis in the healthcare industry. Your hiring process included campus interviews, a daylong trip for an interview at the company, an offer phone call and letter, and some promotional material sent via the mail. When you arrive for your first day at work, you spend half a day in an orientation session that is conducted by the human resources department, where you complete paperwork and receive a company handbook. Then you spend the rest of the day with your supervisor, who gives you a tour, introduces you to your co-workers, and explains your first project. After that, you begin working and getting to know the others in the company. You find that in most respects, your experience fits your expectations, but in some ways you are surprised by realities that you hadn't expected. None of these surprises is too difficult to accept, so you eventually begin to feel at home and happy with your new job.
Which of the following steps could your supervisor take to best help you develop a commitment to your new company?
◦ discourage you from putting too much emphasis on your perception of the organization
◦ explain the rules and policies of the organization to you
◦ encourage you to work independently at first to learn the ropes
◦ encourage you to look carefully at your own assumptions, which may be biased
◦ encourage you to develop friendship ties within the organization
