DESCRIPTION:Navigating Status-Authority Asymmetry between Professions: The 
 Case of 911 Emergency Management.\n\nAbstract: Status-authority asymmetry 
 between professions emerge when a profession characterized by lower status
  is mandated by the organization to command and get work done from another
  professions with higher status and lower formal authority. This\, in turn
 \, can undermine cross-professional coordination. How do lower-status prof
 essionals with higher formal authority navigate status-authority asymmetry
  to orchestrate cross-professional coordination with higher-status profess
 ionals? To answer this question\, I conducted as 24-month ethnography of 9
 11 emergency management\, and examined remote coordination encounters betw
 een 911 dispatchers (lower status professionals with higher formal authori
 ty) and police officers(higher status professionals with lower formal auth
 ority). I identify a set of practices entailing communication media(open o
 r private radio channels) and relational tactics (personalizing to offers\
 , escalating to supervisors\, and publicizing to peers) that 911 dispatche
 rs use during the emergency coordination process. Specifically\, I find th
 at as compared to the personalizing and escalating tactics\, publicizing a
 n individual police officer's non-compliant behavior to his immediate peer
  group(i.e. the police unit) via the open radio  channel enabled the dispa
 tchers to navigate status-authority asymmetry and orchestrate cross-profes
 sional coordination. Insofar as the lower-status professionals are able to
  manage the common information space (in this case\, the open radio channe
 l) to create and disseminate peer knowledge about the non-compliant behavi
 or of higher-status professionals\, then that will in turn trigger peer co
 ntrol\, as the non-compliant individuals' professional status is on the li
 ne in front of the immediate peer group. I discuss the implications of the
 se findings for research on cross-professional coordination and status att
 ainment.\n
