Abstract

Organizational socialization can be defined as a process that leads an individual to acquire the beliefs, values, behaviors, orientations, skills, necessary to fully exercise its role and function in an organization (Fisher, 1986, Van Maanen , 1976). Our article explores the relationship between this neglected facet of human resource management and entrepreneurial orientation. Four case studies describing the socialization practices of SMEs characterized by either a strong or a weak entrepreneurial orientation are mobilized to verify the validity of a set of theoretical propositions linking entrepreneurial orientation and socialization practices.
