    Drawing on gender role theory and tournament theory, we examined the effects of sex and organizational culture preferences on the incomes of MBA graduates over an 8‐year period. We found that masculine culture preferences led to higher income 4 years after graduation and, in contrast to previous research, the effect was stronger for women. By 8 years after graduation, however, men's rate of income increase was significantly higher than women's, an effect that was mediated by hours worked per week. These findings clarify some of the conflicting results of previous research on the effects of gender roles on women's careers and suggest that a tournament‐like aspect of careers may account for higher incomes in organizations.

    Despite rhetoric supporting the advancement of women on corporate boards, meager evidence supports significant progress over the past decade in the United States. The authors examine archival board data (for more than 3,000 U.S. publicly traded firms) from 2002 to 2011 and find that a female is most likely to be appointed to a corporate board when a woman has just exited the position. A similar propensity occurs to reappoint a male when a man leaves, although the effect is smaller than for women. The authors argue that this “gender-matching heuristic” can impede progress in attaining gender diversity, regardless of intention, because it emphasizes the replacement of existing women rather than changing board composition. The authors replicate this effect in follow-up laboratory studies and show that “what works” to increase the representation of women on boards, irrespective of gender matching, is to increase the number of women in the candidate pool.

    Researchers have become increasingly interested in how narcissistic leaders influence people and organizations. Research in this domain had generated equivocal results, however, with some studies showing that narcissistic leaders positively influence their firms because people are drawn to their grandiose visions, self-confidence, and bold actions, and other studies painting a more negative picture, showing that narcissists’ low integrity, lack of empathy, and individualistic orientation can lead them to put the organizations they lead at risk. We attempt to clarify these conflicting findings by suggesting that narcissistic leaders, through their signature attributes, create organizational cultures that can have a long term influence on firm value. In two field studies and two scenario studies, we show that more narcissistic managers: (a) prefer cultures that are lower on integrity and collaboration; (b) lead organizations with cultures that place less emphasis on integrity and coll...

    Facing imminent disruption, many large, established firms have embraced innovation as a way to develop new growth businesses. To succeed in the face of disruptive change requires established firms to master three distinct disciplines: ideation, to generate potential new business ideas; incubation, to validate these ideas in the market; and scaling, to reallocate the assets and capabilities needed to grow the new business. This article illustrates how two successful firms (Amazon and IBM) have developed approaches that address all three disciplines.

    Transformational leaders challenge the status quo, provide a vision of a promising future, and motivate and inspire their followers to join in the pursuit of a better world. But many of these leaders also fit the American Psychiatric Association classification for narcissistic personality disorder. They are grandiose, entitled, self-confident, risk seeking, manipulative, and hostile. This article reviews the literature on narcissism and shows how what we think of as transformational leadership overlaps substantially with grandiose narcissism. As grandiose narcissists can appear as transformational leaders, it is important to distinguish between what leadership scholars have characterized as “transformational” and these “pseudo-transformational” candidates.

    35 male and 36 female professional employees (average age 36.2 yrs) in a community mental health center completed the Adjective Check List twice, separated by a 1-yr interval. After each administration, separate factor analyses were computed. All scales had highly significant test–retest reliabilities. Five factors emerged in each analysis, 2 of which accounted for about 55% of the common variance.
