Dr. Corinne Post will share insights from her recent paper exploring how men’s responses to women joining majority-male teams could influence team dynamics and outcomes. While shifts in team processes are often attributed to women’s unique qualities, Professor Post proposes that we expand this focus to examine how men’s physiological, affective, cognitive, and behavioral reactions to the presence of women play a key role. She will explain how these responses vary based on the characteristics of both men and women and present a contingent model that highlights new research possibilities on the indirect effects of women’s presence on top management teams, via men’s responses.
