We like to think that we know what being human means. However, the conversation about what differentiates us from featherless bipeds or talking automata has been going on for millennia and it becomes even more important as artificial intelligence (AI) and other intelligent machines become better at imitating humans, challenging the existence of jobs and professions. In this symposium, we address how the meaning of humanness changes when people work with intelligent technologies, how humanness is experienced at work and beyond, and how people think about themselves and other humans while interacting with intelligent machines in metahuman systems where people and machines learn from each other. The five papers in this symposium address the notion of humanness in human-AI interaction from different theoretical and methodological vantage points (qualitative, quantitative, and conceptual) and consider these interactions from both the participant and the onlooker perspectives.

Due to economic, technological, and cultural changes, career paths whereby individuals move in and out of alternative working arrangements, build careers from hobbies, or transition into new occupations via non-traditional training programs are becoming increasingly common. While management scholars have developed rich theories on identity and skill development in external labor markets, we have less understanding of the pathways that shape discontinuous career transitions–transitions that entail major and simultaneous occupational and organizational changes. In this symposium, we focus on the tech sector as a setting for examining the nontraditional reskilling pathways that have begun to shape discontinuous career transitions, such as Massive Online Open Courses (MOOCs) and bootcamps. We raise the question of whether and how value can be more equitably distributed to employees and employers through new forms of training and labor market matching. We also examine how these new pathways–and the individuals that move through them–come to be recognized as legitimate by employers. We explore these questions by addressing both the supply and demand sides of the labor market and by examining multiple touchpoints in the training and hiring process. We begin by exploring employers’ sense-making around skill demands, shedding light on how skill requirements change in IT occupations. This motivates why new and alternative career pathways and training institutions have developed in response to rapid, demand-side change. We then discuss dynamics of knowledge development and job searching experienced by participants in these alternative pathways, as well as implications for our theories of occupational entry, learning, and socialization.

Recognizing how organizations of all kinds are increasingly emphasizing radical innovation to compete successfully, in this Presenter Symposium, we are proposing five presentations on how to manage employees for taking on initiatives that otherwise have a low rate of success. We bring together ten management scholars, researchers, and practitioners from academia, industry, and administration covering four countries for sharing with AOM audience their findings on how to motivate, engage, and train employees for such initiatives. They cover topics related to philosophy, metaphors, and the arts. In the process, topics of stoicism, the world’s largest epics, superpowers and the role of virtue and happiness in enhancing successful undertakings are considered. With the advance of AI, internationalism, and technology quacking the pace of change, we are presenting a preview of how the organizations of the future can manage risky endeavors by having employees take risk and make personal sacrifice to tread the unknown. We consider how to create a work environment that motivates employees to succeed in discovering the unknown and undertake the unthinkable. We provide various means recommended in the ancient wisdom to achieve these. We also provide unconventional sources, reach unexplored venues, understand and interpret the requisite knowledge, behavior, and the mind.

Although generally considered underrepresented in management research, experiments have recently received increased attention from scholars in this domain. This trend has highlighted several limitations of current practices and approaches to experimental design. This symposium is designed to address some of these issues. More specifically, the presentations in this symposium are designed to advance three critical aspects of the experimental design process: (a) the validation of manipulations, (b) power analysis in experimental contexts, and (c) testing mediating effects models using experimental designs. The presenters provide state-of-the-method reviews, discuss the limitations of current practices, provide guidelines for application, and make recommendations on best practices for management scholars developing or reviewing experimental studies of organizational phenomena.

As the study of identity management continues to evolve, scholars have begun to transition from focusing on identity signaling to identity disclosure at work (Arnett, 2023; Kang et al., 2016; Kirgios et al., 2022; Milkman et al., 2015). As a nascent area of study, scholars within the realm of explicit identity disclosure have thus far focused on when and why disclosers receive support in response to their low-status identity disclosure (Arnett, 2023; Kirgios et al., 2022). In this symposium, we extend theory and research in this area by exploring the full cycle of low-status identity disclosure and integrating both intrapersonal and interpersonal perspectives. Across our five empirical papers, we examine a new framework for identity management, consider the expectations individuals have of others’ identity management, and investigate when low-status identity disclosures can backfire. Last, our expert discussant, Steve Blader—leading scholar in status and social identity—will guide a discussion at the end of the session on the symposium themes and engage the audience in questions about the current research and directions for future work.

Global shifts in the geopolitical, environmental, demographic, and technological landscape are introducing unprecedented levels of uncertainty into labor markets and employment relations. With the world waiting for answers, the onus is on management scholars to offer new theoretical approaches and evidence-based insights that might allow managers, policymakers, and labor leaders to more effectively and collaboratively meet the challenges presented (AOM, 2022). This global shift also demands that organizations and organizational scholars pay greater attention to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) practices. Research on DEI practices has been conducted primarily on mono-cultural Western-oriented or “WEIRD” (i.e., Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, & Democratic; Henrich, 2021) countries (Nishi & ?zbilgin, 2007; Rad et al., 2018). However, legislative frameworks, political, societal, religious, and governance factors result in DEI practices that vary from country to country and differ considerably from the West (?zbilgin & Syed, 2010; Klarsfeld et al., 2022). Countries in the South Asian region—Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka—are multicultural developing economies that vary widely along various factors, including education, democracy, and degree of industrialization, among others. The South Asian region is also home to three (i.e., India, Pakistan, & Bangladesh) of the world's most- populated countries (Neufeld, 2021; Worldometer, 2023), and has become increasingly critical to the global economy (IMF, 2019). Yet, there is a dearth of research on DEI in South Asia (Saifuddin et al., 2022; Syed & Pio, 2013), which not only restricts our knowledge, but also hampers our field’s ability to provide guidance to organizations, governments, and other stakeholders on how to structure and implement effective DEI policies and programs.

Although concealable stigmatized identities are fundamental to individual identity and carry positive benefits for the individual when shared with others, individuals are still hesitant to disclose such identities in the workplace due to risk of social devaluation and negative stereotypes. As such, given the taboo nature of such identities, employees with concealable stigmatized identities often grapple with the decision whether to disclose their identity at work or keep their identity hidden, and how to effectively manage workplace relationships and social interactions at work. In an effort to further understand how people navigate such disclosures and subsequent relationships in the workplace, the papers in this symposium highlight various concealable stigmatized identities and examine: (a) what motivates individuals to disclose their concealable identities; (b) what disclosure strategies exist for specific identities; (c) how employees navigating work relationships in relation to their identities; and (d) how individuals engage in identity work to understanding one’s identity.

This symposium has three related objectives. First, the symposium will highlight the innovative use of African data sources to study organizations. Considering some of the challenges associated with the availability, access, and sustainability of data from Africa, the symposium will feature empirical research studies that have undertaken innovative research approaches to identify and collect data for research. The papers collectively demonstrate viable approaches that researchers are taking toward discovering empirically grounded management insights in Africa. Second, the symposium will offer insight into novel methodologies in the curation and deployment of African sourced data in management research. For example, the symposium will help reveal how the diverse cultures (and languages) in Africa give rise to the development and deployment of novel methodologies in management and organizational settings. Finally, the symposium draws attention to how management and organizational research using African data and methodologies reveal new perspectives about organizations and the future of organizing that are relevant to other managerial contexts outside of Africa. Thus, the symposium offers opportunities to derive implications that challenge prevailing ideas in extant management research.

Neurodiversity traits have become of interest to practitioners implementing recruitment and development efforts (ex: Microsoft, EY), and scholars. Recent theory has been introduced on reconceptualizing leadership as neurodiverse, and reconceptualizing workplaces and social phenomena as neurodiverse friendly. A recent autism and employment integrative review highlighted how there is little leadership research that addresses neurominority leadership outcomes. The review also highlighted that the majority of published research should be interpreted with caution due to small sample sizes. This symposium introduces new research that utilizes mixed methods to examine neurominorities' leadership and the social influence of colleagues. The research in the symposium explores consequences of neurominority identities and how neurominority identities affect outcomes at the individual and firm levels of analysis. The symposium ends with how future neurodiversity leadership and social phenomena research can increase methodological rigor and yield positive outcomes from neurominority employee contributions.

Unresolved issues within the negotiation literature and organizations necessitate a more nuanced understanding of how identity and individual differences influence negotiation outcomes. This symposium brings together three papers that examine the effects of various individual differences and identity-relevant factors on negotiation strategies and outcomes. Collectively, these papers offer implications for negotiation science and practice across various contexts and for specific outcomes. The discussant will provide recommendations for the role of organizational scholars in addressing current issues.

Long before the COVID-19 pandemic, the United States Surgeon General declared loneliness as an epidemic (Murthy, 2017) and specifically identified an individual’s work environment as a context where loneliness can emerge and have dire consequences (Seitz, 2023; McDaid, 2022). Indeed, research has demonstrated that 80% percent of employees experience loneliness at work (Twaronite, 2022) and that it is related to a multitude of negative outcomes, such as emotional exhaustion (Anand & Mishra, 2018) and decreased organizational commitment (Ayazlar & Güzel, 2014), job satisfaction (Wright et al., 2006), performance (Ozcelik & Barsade, 2018), and engagement (Jung et al., 2021). Thus, unfortunately, workplace loneliness is a prevalent and pernicious experience in modern organizations. In light of this crisis, management scholars have begun to examine the outcomes of workplace loneliness but have devoted far less attention to identifying the factors that may cause workplace loneliness, exploring how workplace loneliness may emerge at the team level, and investigating how to curb workplace loneliness. Therefore, this symposium brings together six papers that aid in addressing these gaps in our understanding of workplace loneliness. Together, these papers focus on investigating the experience of workplace loneliness in critical groups, such as those with stigmatized identities, entrepreneurs, and leaders, and invite a discussion of possible solutions to limit workplace loneliness and mitigate its negative consequences in individuals and teams.

This symposium presents cutting edge research on collective intelligence (CI). CI is the phenomenon of groups outperforming even the most skilled individuals. Organizations are a key way through which societies constitute groups and structure their interactions and therefore is a seat of collective intelligence. The papers here address some of the ways group processes are structured and the implications for organization performance.

In 2011, the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) established the Innovation Corps (I-Corps) program, which has become the world’s largest entrepreneurial training program for would-be academic entrepreneurs. I-Corps prepares university and federal lab scientists and engineers to extend their focus beyond the laboratory to accelerate the transfer of cutting-edge research into commercial success. As I-Corps has expanded, it has made its presence felt in academic entrepreneurship. There are now ten NSF I-Corps Regional “Hubs,” involving over 80 research universities. According to the NSF I-Corps Biennial Report (2021), I-Corps has educated more than 6,500 grant participants from the NSF, National Institutes of Health (NIH), and Department of Energy (DOE), and trained more than 2,300 entrepreneurial teams. These teams are typically small (i.e., three individuals) and include individuals with both scientific and business-related expertise. I-Corps teams have raised more than $1.2 Billion in subsequent funding for start-up activity. Evaluating the effectiveness of the I-Corps program is critical to its future success since NSF and other federal agencies are looking to expand the program. Duval-couetil, Epstein, and Huang-saad (2022) note that I-Corps has been evaluated in a number of ways, and they suggest a need for alternative evaluation and assessment data that could be used to better understand the effects of regional programs, as well as how those programs might be improved. However, the overarching theme of this symposium is linking entrepreneurship and innovation literature to assess the effectiveness of an entrepreneurship training program (the NSF I-Corps program) on generating potential entrepreneurs (academic entrepreneurs) and show how this program is producing sustainable impacts on society (innovations). Four presentations are included in the symposium, representing different approaches to understanding the critical role of Hubs of I-Corps trainees across the U.S. by reinforcing the fundamental components of the entrepreneurial and innovation process. The presentations in this session illustrate a variety of “micro” and “macro” perspectives on academic entrepreneurship (Waldman, Vaulont, Balven, Siegel, & Rupp, 2022; Siegel & Wright, 2015), including theories of organizational justice; identity; role conflict; ambivalence; championing/leadership; feedback; knowledge spillovers; diversity, equity, and inclusion; business model experimentation; pivoting; strategy formulation and implementation; networks; and team dynamics. Likewise, novel methods to provide evidence and implications. Our session is also inspired by the AOM 2024 theme “Innovating for the future: policy, purpose and organizations” since it deals with a federal program that is targeted to train the next generation of successful academic entrepreneurs. Presentations In the first paper, Nordstom, Siegel, and Opoku highlight the need for better theories and evaluation methodologies for the NSF I-Corps program. In this regard, the authors assert that to better evaluate the effectiveness of I-Corps, it is important to examine the magnitude of knowledge spillovers and improve our understanding of the mechanisms of spillover generation and their impact on entrepreneurial outcomes. To accomplish this, the authors note that their project consists of two phases. In the first phase, they conduct a quantitative analysis of the knowledge spillover effects of I-Corps training on lab members and peers of PIs. In the second phase, they conduct a qualitative analysis of the effects of I-Corps training on the relationships that scientists have with university technology transfer offices, incubators, research parks, funding agencies, donors, investors, and industry, as well as how it affects educational programs (e.g., how they teach and mentor graduate students). This project proposes new theories and methods to understand impacts and provides evidence of outcomes for evaluating the future of the NSF I-Corp program and academic entrepreneurship. This conversation will be extended by exploring the individual level in the next presentation. Tran, Newman, Wiklund, and Bellavitis analyze the impact of diversity on startup success within the NSF I-Corps program. They use social identity theory as their theoretical framework to study how biases are formed form, how they evolve, and how they influence the manner in which startups are evaluated, supported, and funded. Their empirical analysis is based on an online survey of NSF I-Corps participants. Their dependent variable is startup success, with the following key independent variables: neurodiversity, specifically attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism intensities. Of course, they also include key demographic variables, such as race and gender. Although they are still collecting data, they will present their preliminary findings in Chicago. In the following presentation, Li adds to the conversation regarding the importance of context in the experimentation process, by focusing on the unique science and engineering contexts of the I-Corps program. In particular, since experimentation is an approach that is rooted in the scientific method and familiar to scientific researchers, the author proposes to study how I-Corps teams engage in business model experimentation. To do this, the author plans to collect a large and longitudinal sample from the NSF I-Corps program. First, the I-Corps program is an ideal context for analyzing business model experimentation. Second, through the I-Corps program we will collect not only longitudinal data (pre- and post-entry into I-Corps) but also data for comparison groups (i.e., those that apply but are not selected into I-Corps). This project proposes new theories and methods to understand the business model experimentation and provides evidence of processes, contexts, and outcomes for evaluating the future of the NSF I-Corp program and academic entrepreneurship. Finally, Neupert, Nicholas, and Whitney have two objectives in their study. The first goal is to connect the NSF I-Corps program to the broader entrepreneurial ecosystem of the university. A second goal is to assess the effectiveness of the program, using a national database of I-Corps programs at multiple universities. Their evaluation of the I=-Corps program is based on computing change scores for variables related to the Business Model Canvas (BMC) in terms of differences between program participants' understanding of BMC concepts before they participate in the program and their understanding of BMC concepts after they participate in the program. BMC is a nine-cell framework for understanding the important aspects of a business operation, including key resources, key activities, key partners, cost structure, value proposition, channels, customer relations, customer segments, and revenue streams.

The growing digitalization of work tasks and processes, increasing use of texts and emails, and the rise of hybrid and remote work have amplified growing tensions over work and nonwork boundaries. For example, employees and employers are increasingly navigating control over the work-nonwork nexus, which are rapidly shifting and blurring. Issues such as how to implement hybrid and remote work, when and how employees take breaks, availability during work and nonwork hours, control over work schedules and overwork, and aligning expectations and attributions between organizations and employees illustrate growing challenges. Unfortunately, research on work practices both formal (e.g., telework, work schedule policies) and informal (e.g., after hours email, text availability) and employee and organizational experiences related to the work-nonwork boundary is scattered, across the complex issues noted above. Moreover synergistic theoretical views on boundary management, job design, gender, flexibility, management control, and well -being and recovery are not well-integrated nor are and macro and micro perspectives. Divergence in boundary practices across different occupations, cultures, employers, and individuals has further obfuscated this literature. Consequentially, scholarship on the work-nonwork boundary has become a siloed literature that addresses boundary challenges in a piecemeal and ad hoc fashion. The goal of this symposium is to integrate and advance understanding regarding the changing dynamics and control over the work-nonwork boundary as a critical future of work issue. The papers in this symposium highlight the many ways the work-life boundary (e.g., cognitive, emotional, physical, time) is in flux, and has had to be renegotiated and redefined for employees and employers across many issues, stakeholders, and contexts. By integrating a rich range of employer and employee challenges being affected by the changing dynamics of work-nonwork boundaries and bringing together varied theoretical lenses and diverse perspectives, this symposium is able to address tensions and challenges in modern boundary management.

Despite the progress in advancing our understanding of multiple team membership (MTM), much remains to be learned, particularly with regard to broadening the theoretical perspectives used to examine employees’ experiences across their multiple teams. Prior studies have primarily considered the effects of multiteaming on individuals from a stress or constraint perspective, highlighting the negative implications for employees in these arrangements. Yet, research drawing on different theoretical lenses also indicates that MTMs have positive implications. To address this limitation, this symposium emphasizes innovating for the future by bringing together five papers that showcase multiple theoretical perspectives to explain the effects of multiteaming on individuals (e.g., COR theory, interactionist perspective on roles, and social exchange theory), thereby advancing unanswered questions that extend theory by examining the impact of MTM on individual, team, and organizational outcomes in the experiences of MTM employees across their teams (e.g., fatigue, stress, and knowledge exchange). These papers also showcase a variety of research designs, including qualitative and quantitative approaches (e.g., multilevel models, daily team switching, a multiple-embedded case study) in various contexts (e.g., global emergency crises and mixed teams of multiteamers and single-teamers). We hope to provide a forum that advances promising areas for future MTM research.

An essential pathway toward improving the workplace experience and dynamics of those with disabilities is the complex array of external factors present within organizations. Such factors influence both how these employees perceive themselves, as well as how others in the workplace perceive disability. Research that explores this topic is particularly valuable given the breadth and scope of disability in society, but still there exists a pronounced scarcity of disability as a dimension of diversity and inclusion within organizations. The papers in this symposium aim to contribute novel and important insights to this underrepresented domain of disability in the workplace by studying the impact of organizational factors – including climate, policies, and practices – on the interactions and perceptions of employees with disabilities in the workplace.

This symposium delves into the expanding domain of Deep Technology and its imperatives for commercialization, elucidating the formidable challenges faced by startups operating within this paradigm. In line with the overarching theme of AOM 2024, the symposium aims to emphasize the vital role of progressing science and innovative technology in enhancing both societal and economic futures. The array of five presentations encapsulates a comprehensive exploration of various facets intrinsic to deep tech, ranging from fundamental challenges faced by deep technology projects to the significance of innovation in driving business performance and growth, and from founder role transitions during early phases of deep technology ventures to the struggle for securing funding from venture capitalists in the early stages of science-based startups. Employing a methodological blend of quantitative and qualitative approaches, the symposium endeavors to enrich our comprehension of the intricate trajectory from laboratory-based innovation to market realization within the context of deep tech. The symposium's pertinence extends across the domains of Technology and Innovation Management (TIM), Entrepreneurship (ENT), and Strategy (STR), contributing substantively to the management of technology, entrepreneurial discourse, and the strategic underpinnings of nascent venture teams. In pursuit of this objective, it aims to foster a sophisticated comprehension of the complex technological landscape, offering insights relevant to diverse sectors within the expansive domain of management science.

Despite the extant research highlighting the benefits of having difficult conversations, its inherent complexity – particularly due to the interdependent, multimodal, and highly contextualized nature of conversation – has impeded its empirical advancement and theoretical integration. Furthermore, previous research has assumed that having, or being able to have, difficult conversations is invariably beneficial for individuals, teams, and organizations. However, exactly how these conversations unfold and lead to positive outcomes remain a mystery. In this symposium, five presentations will explore why and how particular conversational elements within difficult contexts, such as grief, distrust, conflict, diverging goals, and advice giving and seeking, may lead to better or worse outcomes for individuals in organizational settings. In total, the symposium offers empirical and theoretical insights into the burgeoning science of conversation research, as well as practical solutions for managers, leaders, and employees who wish to create spaces where people are heard and feel connected to others.

Research has consistently demonstrated that guanxi and social networks confer substantial advantages for individuals (e.g., Burt, 1992, 2004; Mannucci & Perry-Smith, 2022), groups (e.g., Reagans & Zuckerman, 2001; Reagans, Zuckerman, & McEvily, 2004) and organizations (e.g., Luo, Huang, & Wang, 2012; Opper, Nee, & Holm, 2017) across various contexts. These contexts range from developed institutions (Borgatti, Brass, & Halgin, 2014) to transforming economies (Karhunen, Kosonen, McCarthy, & Puffer, 2018). Despite the considerable progress in understanding their important impact, ongoing debates persist in comparative explorations of guanxi and social networks, particularly within cross-cultural contexts (e.g., Burt & Burzynska, 2017; Chen & Ren, 2023; Xiao & Tsui, 2007). Beyond this conventional understanding, the advent of digital technologies has substantially altered network structure and interpersonal processes within contemporary organizations (Kellogg, Valentine, & Christin, 2020), potentially giving rise to new paradigms of guanxi and social networks. The COVID-19 pandemic may further expedite the influence of digitalization on the workplace. This emphasis extends to the development of guanxi and social network studies, incorporating innovative use of big data and mixed methods such as machine learning algorithms. To advance the field, this panel symposium seeks to engage a group of scholars in discussions on harnessing mixed methods and big data to address novel research questions in comparative studies of guanxi and social networks, with aspiration of making substantial contributions to both theoretical developments and empirical extensions.

To overcome conflicting reports on how diversity interventions and initiatives lead to both positive and negative outcomes, some scholars have called for a greater focus on the context in which certain actions and behaviors take place. As such, our symposium aims to focus on the effects of context, but more specifically how the proportion of organizational diversity, or the representation of underrepresented members from racial/ethnic and gender groups, influences outcomes. In this symposium, three empirical papers explore the implications of proportional demographic representation in organizational diversity and how it influences instrumental outcomes including hiring decisions, status conferral in groups, and organizational practices to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion. At the conclusion of the presentation, Robin Ely, a prolific scholar who has conducted extensive analyses on group diversity and proportional representation of underrepresented minority members in teams, will facilitate an engaging group discussion of the papers with the audience and presenters with key commentary.

This symposium examines the complex and often contradictory nature of addressing workplace inequities through diversity initiatives. Organizations are increasingly investing in diversity and inclusion (D&I) efforts, as evidenced by the prevalence of Chief Diversity Officers and comprehensive diversity training programs among Fortune 1000 companies. These efforts represent a deliberate strategy to cultivate equitable and inclusive workplaces. However, the symposium emphasizes the necessity of evaluating the impact of these practices to ensure they contribute to real and sustainable change, rather than being mere symbolic gestures. The studies featured explore the complex dynamics of workplace inequities and the often paradoxical outcomes of well-intentioned D&I efforts. These studies employ various methods such as surveys, audit studies, and experiments to assess organizational policies across different contexts. Key findings include: 1) Gender differences in EEOC judgments of merit, with claims filed by women in masculine industries more likely to be granted merit. 2) The impact of free speech appeals on reducing accountability for workplace bias, highlighting a failure in achieving D&I goals. 3) The concept of strategic ignorance in sexual harassment claims, indicating that claims of ignorance may not always be made in good faith. 4) The effectiveness of positive versus negative feedback in motivating equitable behaviors among city councilors. 5) The exploitation of first-generation college students in organizations due to positive stereotypes. These studies collectively reveal the intricate nature of addressing workplace inequities, underscoring the need for more nuanced and effective strategies in fostering true equity and fairness in the workplace.

Award Winners will be announced at the IM Division Awards and Recognition session.
