This study elucidates the effects of organizational socialization tactics and proactive behavior on the regional adaptation of employees. We used a combination of the following methods: measurement of regional commitment and proactive behavior, and interview surveys. The main finding is that both organizational socialization tactics and proactive behavior led to building relationships with local residents, which fostered employees’ commitment to the community. Here are some of the key factors: (1) RJP before joining the company, (2) organizational support for employees participation in community activities, (3) employees’ own efforts to build relationships with local residents, and (4) early transfer of authority to employees.
