State
Cultural transmission is the way people come to learn the values, beliefs, and norms of their culture, carried by both formal and informal education.
Show
A new hire's onboarding teaches the written job procedures and, in the same sessions, transmits an unstated norm about which coworkers to defer to.
Watch for
Cultural transmission occurs whether or not a curriculum names it as a goal.
