TPI-theoryFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The theory of TPI is an attempt to reconcile theoretical understanding of organizational socialization such as the

process of integration.[1]

TPI-theory refers that new employees need to develop theoretical (T) and practical (P) skills towards the

performance of the new job, but also satisfy needs of (I) interaction that exist among the new employees.[2] Thesethree conditions must be fulfilled to become integrated to the organization. This theory is important to approach anunderstanding of integration and socialization effects.
