In the ever-evolving business landscape, an organization's ability to effectively manage its human resources plays an essential role in creating sustained advantage at the individual and workgroup levels. Integrating traditional and innovative approaches, the presentations in this symposium delve into the modern employee experience, examining the nuanced links between daily experiences, organizational politics, employee demands, and such outcomes as employee well-being, attitudes, behaviors, cognition, and identity. The presentations contribute to the development of new and recently introduced constructs using recent advancements in momentary and longitudinal research designs. In doing so, the authors contribute to the burgeoning and existing literature on the influence of bottom-line mentality on individual outcomes, how leader-wielded social comparisons result in performance pressure, and how contextual leadership and environmental factors influence such outcomes as leader identity and turnover.

Research on diversity, equity, and inclusion has expanded rapidly over the past decade or so. This symposium makes note of that expansion by considering existing definitions (and related epistemologies) of diversity and presenting novel research in some key areas of the diversity literature. We do so by presenting a literary review of diversity definitions and new research on effects of diversity, equity, and inclusion definitions and processes on leadership, diversity climate and constituent attachment, and stereotype threat in pre- and post-selection situations.
