Emerging Insights on Social Class at Micro and Macro Levels
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This symposium highlights emerging insights related to social class, an important and overlooked aspect of diversity in organizations. The five papers presented in this symposium will cover various topics within the micro and macro domains of management. At the micro level, the papers reveal the complex interplay of social class background with other marginalized identities, such as gender and immigrant status, in shaping workplace experiences. Their nuanced analysis underscores the need to consider social class as a part of multiple identities shaping the lives of students and employees. Additionally, this symposium also integrates social class and conflict literature, proposing that class-based self-conceptions underlie the responses to workplace conflict. At the macro level, the papers delve into how CEO’s social class background shapes stakeholder perceptions and career outcomes. They enrich our understanding of how class-based stereotypes and shifting competence standards follow executives to the apex of corporate hierarchy, carrying career implications even after they have demonstrated merit through significant upward mobility. Together, these papers significantly advance our understanding of how social class, though often invisible, has a profound impact on attitudes and outcomes in the workplace.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
