Abstract

The Organizational culture is the set of beliefs and values that its employees have adopted for a longer period. It is the anticipated value of their work, and it directly affects their behavior and attitudes at the workplace. The managers of the organizations have to change their leadership behavior to achieve the goals of their stakeholders, and it also affects the socialization process in the organization. This study aims to review the pioneer theories on leadership behavior, organizational socialization and culture. The study also checks how socialization affects the culture of the organization. The study used correlation and regression analysis to check the impact of organizational culture and leadership behavior on organizational socialization. The data has been collected with the help of questionnaires from the university professors in KSA using simple random sampling. The results of the correlation show that leaders' behaviors are more controlled in a bureaucratic culture and are flexible in an encouraging and supportive culture. The regression results show that socialization and leadership are significantly affecting the organizational culture.
