 \n\nThe Gendered Complexity of Sponsorship: How Male and Female Sponsors' 
 Goals Shape their Social Network Strategies \n\nDate: Friday\, March 28\, 
 2025\n	Time:10:30 AM -12:00 PM\n	Location: Virtual (ZOOM)\n\nAll are cordial
 ly invited to attend.\n\nAttend via ZOOM\n\n\nAbstract:\n\nProviding spons
 orship\, when senior colleagues (sponsors) mobilize resources in their soc
 ial network on junior colleagues’ (protégés) behalf\, is consequential to 
 the effective functioning of organizations. Yet the psychological processe
 s underlying male and female sponsors’ goals\, priorities\, and strategies
  for activating resources in their networks for protégés are not well unde
 rstood. We conduct four studies to examine male and female sponsors’ goals
  and the resulting impact on their approach to activating resources in the
 ir social network. Studies 1a-b provide converging\, initial evidence that
  men approach sponsorship with less complexity than women\, by setting few
 er goals that focus more on benefiting themselves. Study 2 provides additi
 onal evidence: male sponsors are more likely than female sponsors to perce
 ive sponsorship as an opportunity to benefit themselves while female spons
 ors perceive sponsorship as an opportunity to benefit their protégés. Stud
 y 3 experimentally links the differences in goal pursuit to sponsors’ soci
 al network strategies: when asked to balance protégé-centric and sponsor-c
 entric goals\, women cognitively activate networks higher in closure\, but
  men activate sparse networks regardless of their goals. The implications 
 of these network activation configurations for understanding the sponsorsh
 ip process are discussed.\n
