End of week 5: Socialization of New Members in Organizations

Ever felt like a newbie? Like noone else cares? Well that's just what I'm here to talk about.. The Socialization of New Memebers In an ORGANIZATION!!


Being the new guy or girl on the job is never an easy thing especially if you have colleagues that's designed to give you a hard time for no apparent reason, then again, there's always a reason why they're giving you such a hard time.


So how does one make it through the organization alive? How does one deal with Cruel employees? How does one not break his/her spirit in the process of going through their first day/first week/first everything of the job? Simple, BLEND IN.. don't make them look as if you're able to be bullied, and don't be too cocky either.. Make sure you state what makes you comfortable and what doesn't, if they think you're too demanding, tell them you're human too and that you don't disturb them and they don't disturb you..


However, you still need good alliance with them seeing theyre gonna be the set of people you're gonna be working with from now on [till either one quits that is].


People always say, keep your friends close, and your enemy closer.. Well be good to your workmates and they'll be good to you.. Respect them and sooner or later, you will receive the respect you deserve ok :]


The only reason why employees always give newcomers a hardtime is because they know they've been there longer, they know theyre suppose to be respect and because they find it EXHILARATING and fun to do so.. Noone knows why bullying is fun, but to feel dominant and have someone below you can be an entertaining thing..


Why do some organizations have initiations? Because they want to gain your trust, to make sure that you are on the same boat as them, the same level of thinking and the same level of interest, making sure that you're someone they can fall onto for help, someone that can always have their backs, that's how life works, it's all about connections and how many people you can rely and depend on..


As for new members in an organization, all they want is to survive the crucial faces of having to face their mentors, their seniors and most of all, to not be crushed, not everyone can take the pressure, but to succeed, you will have to, because trust me, wherever you go, you are bound to find people with the very same mindset, it doesn't run far from different organizations.


So listen up guys, it's all about patient and fitting in :] It takes time..


So if you've ever felt left out, here's a movie for u :]
