Those with higher status are listened to more, receive more deference from others, and are perceived as having more power. People with higher status also tend to have better health and longevity. In short, status matters. Despite the importance of status, particularly in the workplace, it has received comparatively little attention from management scholars. It is only relatively recently that they have turned their attention to the powerful role that social status plays in organizations. This book brings together this important work, showing why we should distinguish status from power, hierarchy and work quality. It also shows how a better understanding of status can be used to address problems in a number of different areas, including strategic acquisitions, the development of innovations, new venture funding, executive compensation, discrimination, and team diversity effects. 0aOrganizational sociology 0aOrganizational behavior 0aIndustrial sociology 0aSocial status 0aPrestige1 aPearce, Jone L.,eeditor of compilation.08iPrint version: z9780521115452 0aCambridge Companions to Management.40uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511760525  c228918d228918
