Socialization Process

socialization is the proces

of internalizing the norms and ideologies of society. socialization
encompasses both learning and teaching and is thus "the means by which
social and cultural continuity are attained.

Clausen, John A. (ed.) (1968) Socialisation and Society, Boston: Little Brown and Company
Socialization is strongly connected to developmental psychology. Humans
need social experiences to learn their culture and to survive. Socialization
essentially represents the whole process of learning throughout the life
course and is a central influence on the behavior, beliefs, and actions of
adults as well as of children.

Socialization may lead to desirable outcomes—sometimes labeled
"moral"—as regards the society where it occurs. Individual views are
influenced by the society's consensus and usually tend toward what that
society finds acceptable or "normal". Socialization provides only a partial
explanation for human beliefs and behaviors, maintaining that agents are
not blank slates predetermined by their environment; scientific research
provides evidence that people are shaped by both social influences
and genes. Genetic studies have shown that a person's environment
interacts with his or her genotype to influence behavioral outcomes.

How socialization improves employees peformance
It’s no secret that humans are social creatures. Even the most introverted
people need friends and social groups to prevent feelings of loneliness and
isolation.

Since employees spend about 40% of their waking lives at work, it is

obvious that social interaction in the workplace is fundamental to an
overall sense of wellbeing for employees. In fact, ‘career wellbeing’—or
liking what you do for a living—is one of the five essential elements of
wellbeing identified by Rath and Harter. Willis Towers Watson found that
more employers are focusing on the overall wellbeing—career, health,
financial, and personal—of employees. Improvements in wellbeing result in
better productivity, higher quality work, and increased employee
engagement.

Employers need to create opportunities for social interaction in the
workspace that can increase teamwork and engagement, without
sacrificing personal productivity. Consider how your employees utilize the
physical workspace. Design workspace for groups that encourages face to
face interaction, while also setting aside some workspace areas that are
quieter and more private for employees that are more easily distracted or
are working on very focused, intense projects. Make sure remote workers
can engage in face to face meetings, whether that is regular use of video
conferencing or bringing them to the office physically through the use of
shared workspaces.

Today’s most successful companies are building a culture to support their

mobile workforce by offering user friendly tools to help workers find space
and connect with colleagues when in the office. Asure Software’s Hoteling

 Benefits of socialization
Mention socializing at work to a peer and you may conjure images of
slackers at the water cooler or the busy office gossip. However, these
negative images aren't today's norm. Socializing in today's small business
has changed and the advantages are clear. People are more connected
than ever, mixing and mingling in new ways. Smart businesses are
harnessing these social processes rather than expending energies on
cease and desist memos.

When a small business sends several communications during the day, it's
easy for the reader to overlook an important memo or detail. During
socialization, employees often share updates on projects that may
otherwise be missed. Social activity also gives workers exposure to
different perspectives on changes in policies or projects. These exchanges
also allow small business owners and leaders to mentor and train
employees. Offering pointers in a more casual setting, such as the break
room, may put trainees more at ease. Sharing knowledge like success and
failures with the company, provides insight into others.

Socializing at work benefits the workplace through encouraging teamwork.
Small businesses rely on winning groups in the company to bring in big
dividends. Allowing these teams to give "high-fives," exchange
handshakes or spend a little time bragging may bolster their team spirit.
This type of socialization is infectious. Encourage teamwork by patting
winners on the back and giving kudos whenever you see company
winners. This brief, yet powerful socialization can be positive and powerful.

Socialization is the virtual petri dish that builds new, strong alliances
within your company. A strong alliance between a member of the
accounting department and a member of the production department could
result in a power team that finds a way to cut costs in production. Apply
this same socialization principle to two employees, one from customer
service and one from production. When a product goes awry, the two can
come up with fix, averting crisis with a strong alliance. Don't just allow
strong alliances, accommodate them by introducing two leaders from
opposite sides of the company.
