摘要：Employees often engage in collective grassroots efforts to bring about gender equity in the workplace. Such coalition-based advocacy is largely driven by women, which has led to debate about whether men's involvement as allies can help. Integrating literatures on signaling and legitimacy, we propose that the demographic composition of a gender equity advocacy coalition matters: men-only groups lack coalition legitimacy, or the perception that they are the right spokespersons for gender equity ...

摘要：Working with a prominent mentor can offer many benefits to one's career: mentors provide skills, resources, and values that leave a lasting imprint. Yet, these promising starting points also present a puzzle as people make sense of their careers further on: they must acknowledge their association with their prominent mentor, without being overshadowed by them. We refer to this tension as the paradox of promise. Through a qualitative study of former employees at the Eames Office, we examine how...

摘要：Although mentorship is vital for individual success, potential mentors often view it as a costly burden. To understand what motivates mentors to overcome this barrier and more fully engage with their mentees, we introduce a new construct, learning direction, which captures the beliefs people have about which individuals within a hierarchy- upward, lateral, or downward-are valuable sources of knowledge. Although most mentors believe knowledge resides higher up in hierarchies, the current resear...

摘要：Extant research shows that individual cognitive style affects whether employees benefit most from a brokering or a dense network. But do people build the network structure in which they perform best? We address this question by advancing a novel two-stage explanatory model that explicitly disentangles the network formation process from its performance effects. We hypothesize that adaptors (i.e., individuals inclined to focus on implementable solutions through commonly accepted and well-defined...

摘要：To succeed in growing and scaling their organization, start-ups must establish roles, routines, rules, and plans that coordinate organizational activities. However, early-stage start-ups often lack such coordination mechanisms. Through a longitudinal qualitative multiple-case study of five start-ups, we develop a theoretical framework for how startups develop and improve coordination over time. We find that start-ups establish coordination through a learning sequence consisting of four distinc...

摘要：The growing diversity in today's workplace requires engaging with people who not only look different but also think different. Yet, research on workplace relations has treated similarity-attraction as a human universal and paid limited attention to individual dif-ferences in who respects or tolerates different views and values, and why. We address this gap by examining how lay theories people hold about instrumental relations affect dispositional similarity-attraction. Because people who hold ...

摘要：We conducted an inductive study of discourse associated with the U.S. luxury hotel cate-gory, from its beginnings in 1790 through 2015, to explain how cultural processes con-tribute to elite category endurance. Analyzing data from historical archives, interviews, and observations, we use both qualitative and quantitative methods to reveal how the endurance of an elite category is an ongoing cultural accomplishment that occurs via periodic redefinition of its symbolic boundary-that is, the set ...

摘要：How do producers' distinctiveness and social structure influence third-party certifications? We argue that producers compete against prior and current competitors, and against their past selves. In the context of 153 artists active during a key period of the emergence of modern art (1905-1916), we utilize a convolutional neural network used in computer vision to extract feature vectors of artworks, and measure quantitative distance of these artists' works from canonical reference points. We fi...
