CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- New research released from MIT Sloan Management Review shows that talent hoarding — manager behaviors that prevent subordinates from pursuing jobs elsewhere within a company — is bad for organizations, employees, and managers themselves. "Why You Should Let Your Favorite Employee Move to Another Team" shares data-backed evidence that letting their best employees go is often in managers' own best interests.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- New research released from MIT Sloan Management Review shows that talent hoarding — manager behaviors that prevent subordinates from pursuing jobs elsewhere within a company — is bad for organizations, employees, and managers themselves.
1 reason they leave an organization is the lack of opportunities for career advancement.
The best way to get employees to stay is to show them that they can advance their careers within the organizations.
Managers are so important to internal mobility and development, yet most organizations do not have incentives in place for managers to develop the talent they have.

When the Supreme Court said it’s important to move quickly in key presidential cases like Trump’s immunity claim

The claim arises from his federal charges of attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election results, but also may apply to the charges he faces over hoarding classified documents after leaving office.

Key Points:

The claim arises from his federal charges of attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election results, but also may apply to the charges he faces over hoarding classified documents after leaving office.
No Supreme Court has decided this question, nor has any of its rulings said definitively what counts as an official act and what does not.
But to the justices, and to me as a scholar of American politics and law, perhaps no commentator is as persuasive as the Supreme Court itself – in particular, in a ruling from 50 years ago.

A slowly unfolding inquiry

It was sparked by a burglary of Democratic Party headquarters in Washington’s Watergate Complex in May 1972 and mounting evidence that Nixon had orchestrated a cover-up.
In the summer of 1973, the highly publicized Senate hearings on Watergate publicly revealed the existence of tape recordings of Oval Office conversations.

A rapid series of court decisions

On May 24, 1974, Jaworski filed a request for certiorari before judgment, a rarely used legal mechanism asking the Supreme Court to get involved before the appeals court heard the case.
On May 31, six justices, including two Nixon appointees, granted Jaworski’s request and set oral arguments for July 8.
One justice, William Rehnquist, recused himself because he had worked in Nixon’s Justice Department before being appointed to the court.
One of its key pieces of evidence was one of the recordings the Supreme Court had ordered released.
The Supreme Court had moved quickly, accepting the case at the earliest point it could have.

Trump’s delays

Circuit Court of Appeals in December 2023, special counsel Jack Smith asked the Supreme Court to grant certiorari before judgment.
During John Roberts’ time as chief justice, the Supreme Court has frequently agreed with those requests.
That is already more time than had elapsed between the Supreme Court accepting and deciding the case in 1974.

The importance of speed

I am not the only one who believes the Trump case is of similar – if not greater – importance to democracy.
It’s not yet clear how soon the Roberts court will rule, but in 1974, the justices appreciated “the public importance of the issues presented and the need for their prompt resolution”.

Hope is not the same as optimism, a psychologist explains − just look at MLK’s example

But I want you to know tonight that we, as a people, will get to the Promised Land.” Twenty-two hours later, he was assassinated.

Key Points:

But I want you to know tonight that we, as a people, will get to the Promised Land.” Twenty-two hours later, he was assassinated.
He was not optimistic that he would reach the “Promised Land,” yet he was hopeful about the ultimate goal.
Self-help books on optimism are lined with hacks – like imagining your greatest possible self or focusing on the best-case scenario.
It is a mindset that helps people endure challenges, tackle them head-on and keep their eyes on the goal – a virtue that King and other community leaders exemplify.

We, not me

Hope is stronger than optimism at predicting academic success and people’s ability to cope with pain.
Plenty of scientific evidence suggests that hope improves individuals’ health and boosts their well-being.
Centuries of spiritual and philosophical work describe hope as a virtue that, like love, is a decision, not a feeling.

The myth of time

He faced repeated waves of criticism, and, at the time of his death, fewer Americans approved of him than of the Vietnam War.
In “Letter from a Birmingham Jail,” King lamented the optimism of moderate white Americans who said they supported his goals but took little action.
There is a “strangely irrational notion that there is something in the very flow of time that will inevitably cure all ills,” he wrote.

King was not alone in leveraging virtuous hope for justice. Brazilian educator Paulo Freire described hope as an “existential imperative” that promotes action. Nelson Mandela, who spent 27 years in prison, called hope a “powerful weapon.”

Forged in adversity

I study virtuous hope in a South African Zulu community, where there are few reasons for optimism.
This is the part of the country where HIV is most widespread, with the percentage near 50% in some communities.
These individuals demonstrated an unwavering focus on striving for a better future, often unglued from expectations of personal success.
Like King’s, it manifests in hardship and is refined in adversity.
Hope enables communities to march for justice and democracy even while tasting the danger of dictatorship, apartheid or oligarchy.
