However, concerns have been raised throughout society that ML assessments may be biased and perpetuate or exacerbate inequality. Although organizational researchers have begun investigating ML assessments from traditional psychometric and legal perspectives, there is a need to understand, clarify, and integrate fairness operationalizations and algorithmic bias mitigation methods from the computer science, data science, and organizational research literature. We present a four-stage model of developing ML assessments and applying bias mitigation methods, including (a) generating the training data, (b) training the model, (c) testing the model, and (d) deploying the model. When introducing the four-stage model, we describe potential sources of bias and unfairness at each stage. Then, we systematically review definitions and operationalizations of algorithmic bias, legal requirements governing personnel selection from the United States and Europe, and research on algorithmic bias mitigation across multiple domains and integrate these findings into our framework. Our review provides insights for both research and practice by elucidating possible mechanisms of algorithmic bias while identifying which bias mitigation methods are legal and effective. This integrative framework also reveals gaps in the knowledge of algorithmic bias mitigation that should be addressed by future collaborative research between organizational researchers, computer scientists, and data scientists. We provide recommendations for developing and deploying ML assessments, as well as recommendations for future research into algorithmic bias and fairness.

We use a social network lens to examine both shared leadership level (indexed by team density of informal leadership ties) and shared leadership concentration (indexed by team centralization of such ties). With a sample of 136 work teams and three waves of surveys, we found that shared leadership concentration weakens the positive effect of shared leadership level on team creativity. We explicated the positive and negative mediating roles played by team information elaboration and team status conflict, respectively. Our findings show that shared leadership concentration serves as an enabler or inhibitor on which mediating mechanism is at play, such that when shared leadership concentration is higher, there is a negative indirect effect of shared leadership level on team creativity via team status conflict. By contrast, when shared leadership concentration is lower, shared leadership level has a positive indirect effect on team creativity via team information elaboration. Our work provides nuanced insights into how to maximize the potential benefits of shared leadership in enhancing team creativity.

{"title":"Stories from the danger zone: Conversational storytelling and the meaning of work after a close brush with death.","authors":"David M Long, Jason A Colquitt, Rachel Burgess, Kevin W Rockmann","doi":"10.1037/apl0001295","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1037/apl0001295","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>We conducted a study of aviators who experienced a close brush with death at work, in an effort to better understand how such events influence thoughts about work. Importantly, our initial interviews suggested that participants used conversational storytelling about their close brush with death as a means of enhancing the meaningfulness of their work. That initial finding presented us with a puzzle, as the literatures connecting storytelling to the meaning of work view stories as useful for <i>meaning as understanding-</i>not <i>meaning</i> <i>as fulfillment</i> (i.e., meaningfulness). Additional interviews culminated in a theoretical model where the raw materials of the close brush with death (loss of life, errors by the crew) created stories with more versus less dramatic tension. Differences in dramatic tension then shaped how story work (humor, poetic license) was used to craft the tale, how the tellings were experienced (teller emotions, audience reactions), and how gains in meaning as fulfillment (significance, belonging, esteem) were realized. In the end, participants with more and less dramatic tension in their stories were both able to use tellings to cultivate meaning as fulfillment, albeit in distinct and varying ways. Our findings therefore illustrate that the literatures connecting storytelling to the meaning of work have given short shrift to the power of stories. We discuss the implications of our theorizing for the meaning of work and storytelling at work literatures.
