Three levels of analysis and approaches to evolution are distinguished: (a) the organizational level, which uses a developmental approach; (b) the population level. which uses a selection approach; and (c) the community level, which uses a macroevolutionary approach. Theoretical and empirical research is critiqued within this framework. Proposals to develop organizational taxonomies are considered.

As awards lessen the constraints artists typically face, we argue that award winners receive more opportunities, gain more autonomy, and are more likely to pursue unique creative paths. Empirically, we analyze the consequences of winning a major Grammy award, a high-profile (often status-shifting) honor in the popular music industry. Using a neural learning approach, we examine the subsequent artistic differentiation of albums of award winners from albums of other artists. We analyze whether the music styles and sonic content of post-Grammy albums of winners change, and whether they become more or less similar to the combined corpus of albums of other artists. In panel regression estimates, we find that after winning a Grammy, artists tend to release albums that stand out more stylistically from other artists. Surprisingly, artists who were nominated but did not win a Grammy became more similar t...

Producers might be either organizations or principals; most prior research does not make the distinction, lumping both together conceptually. Combining the three angles and addressing cutting-edge research questions promises to make the symposium interesting and highly insightful. We expect the comparisons achieved by simply juxtaposing the papers will prove eye- opening to many. However, we will also be enlightened by formal discussion of the ideas and papers from noted organizational theorist Ezra Zuckerman as the discussant. The research presented at the symposium comes from a diverse array of ...

Recent theoretical and empirical work in the management field has examined and refined the notion of authenticity in organizational contexts for individuals (e.g., Buckman, 2014; Ibarra & Obodaru, 2016; Leroy, Anseel, Gardner, & Sels, 2015; Yagil & Medler-Liraz, 2013), leaders (Hernandez, Long & Sitkin, 2014; Quinn & Quinn, 2015), and collectives (e.g., Cording, Harrison, Hoskisson & Jonsen, 2013; KovAics, Carroll & Lehman, 2014; Steckler, 2014; Quinn & Thakor, 2014). Together with a panel of leading authenticity scholars whose research examines the processes, influences, and interpretations of authenticity in areas such as professional identity dynamics (Ibarra, 2015), organizational transformation (Quinn & Thakor, 2014)...
