There are three main typical ways of how employees learn culture in the organization where they work for such as stories, rituals, material symbols and language. Although, as we all know that in every organization is not the same, so it must be ways that employee should learn about it easily through the company in advance. 

First of all, ‘Stories’ must be the first one to explain. The word ‘Stories’ is actually mean that when employees get to work in the organization, they are free to know about the background of the workplace where they employ in. This is kind of open information which everyone can know the origin of the company through the falls and the successes. Moreover, in the ‘Stories’ contains the reaction of the customer or employee, rule breaking, gossiping, and so forth. For example, KIT is an organization which all workers are free to know about how did KIT create and all the background from it. In this point, Mr. Takashi who is the founder of KIT already presented and shared the historical of the Kirirom Institute of Technology called KIT to everyone, especially all employees and students he recruits so it is freely to know everything this institution.   

Third of all, ‘Material symbols’ meaning as the organization’s personality when you enter the company then you get the feeling of finding the type of environment that you are in. These are the reflections and reactions of how it shows to you such as the uniform, casual, how employees dress, the type of automobiles provided to top senior manager, and the cooperate of aircraft.  

‘Material symbols’ carries to employees who is important and the kinds of behavior (for example, risk taking, individualistic, and so forth)

that are expected and appropriate. You see young people who are willing to sacrifice to get the honor to the country in order to get the medal and ribbon for their employment. 

Last but not least, ‘Language’ is the verbal communication to identify the culture of the organization. To learn this language, all employees have to accept the culture in the organization they are working for. In every organization often creates the terms to use in their workplace to describe the product, service, customer, process and etc. In order to easily get involved in the culture of the organization, they have to know all of the language used in there such as the abbreviation and jargon. For example, if you work at the hotel, you have to know all the languages and the jargon words such as DND meaning as Do Not Disturb or MUR meaning as Make Up Room. Thus, like I mentioned above that all organizations are different according to the theme of each company so the languages use are also different either the culture too. 

In conclusion,  when employees get to work in every organization they have to adapt with the culture of each organization. Stories, material symbols and language are how employees use to learn the culture of the organization where they employ which are the most important points.
