Sandra E. Spataro
Professor Spataro's research examines the influences of the market environment, the demographic composition of the organization, and an organization's formal and informal social structures on individuals' work experiences. Her most current work focuses on the formation of informal status hierarchies in organizations and status differences, among coworkers, that are associated with demographic diversity. Her publications have appeared in Administrative Science Quarterly, Academy of Management Journal, Behavioral Sciences and the Law, and Research in Managing Groups and Teams. She received her doctoral degree from the University of California, Berkeley and her undergraduate and master's degrees from Stanford University.
