Today’s work groups face unique opportunities and challenges related to new ways of organizing and performing. This symposium aims to present an integrated set of studies exploring the frontiers of dynamic interactions within work groups, paying particular attention to the roles of power, status, and emotions. It features four research papers encompassing both theoretical and empirical approaches and using diverse methodologies and study contexts. To advance knowledge and provoke new directions in group research, we have also invited a distinguished scholar as the session discussant. Together, this symposium aims to encapsulate, encourage, and elicit scholarship that addresses a compelling set of questions concerning interaction dynamics in work groups, as well as how leaders and organizations may address their social, relational, and emotional opportunities and challenges.
