The Unfulfilled Promise of Meritocracy in Organizations
Emilio Castilla, MIT
In my research, I focus on the organizational aspects of work and employment, studying how management practices and managers influence key employment outcomes for employees and organizations over time. I formulate and answer my research questions in a variety of empirical settings, making use of company field studies and experimental research methodologies. Given the widely popular goals of promoting meritocracy and creating opportunities inside organizations, for a number of years now, I have investigated the role that merit, performance evaluations, and other talent-management practices play in shaping employees’ careers in today’s workplace. In my presentation, I will discuss the key findings of some of my projects on achieving meritocracy and excellence in organizations. In so doing, I will highlight the practical insights of my research into the areas of employment, organizations, and workplace inequality.
