...It was Kaufman! "Run!" Tony hissed. Too late. A beam of light from a flashlight knifed from Kaufman's porch across the yard, landing on Tony's blinking face. 9 Tony sat at his kitchen table. He wished he could have been hiding under it. Juan's parents had just left after coming to pick up their son. Now, old man Kaufman sat at the table opposite Tony, sipping a cup of coffee. Tony's parents stood nearby. Although they were acting very nice, Tony knew that as soon as Kaufman left their smiles would disappear. "I'm sorry if I've been a bad neighbor," Kaufman said. "Privacy is important to me. Writing isn't easy, so I don't like to be distracted." "We understand," Tony's mom said. "And congratulations on selling your first book." "Thanks," he said. "With the money I've earned, I was able to send my poor mother on a long vacation. Goodness knows she deserved it. And at last...

...9-407-036 REV: MARCH 26, 2007 BORIS GROYSBERG STEPHEN BALOG JENNIFER HAIMSON Recruitment of a Star Stephen Connor, director of research at the New York investment banking firm of Rubin, Stern, and Hertz (RSH), was in a bind. His star semiconductor analyst, Peter Thompson, had abruptly announced his resignation; he had received an offer from one of RSH’s competitors. But Peter was not only a star analyst, he was also RSH’s only semiconductor analyst. This was certainly not a role that could be left vacant for long and, right now, RSH particularly needed strong coverage of the semiconductor industry because of an upcoming deal with the PowerChip company. (See Exhibit 1.) Stephen examined how much money Peter generated for the firm and saw that he could legitimately raise Peter’s compensation. Then he devised a backup plan: to split Peter’s team by encouraging Peter’s junior analyst, Rina Shea, to stay at RSH. Peter ended up leaving the firm and Stephen promoted Rina to senior analyst, assigning her to cover PowerChip and the rest of the semiconductor industry, at least temporarily, while he decided whether to offer her the position permanently or hire someone from outside the firm. Now Stephen faced the task of finding a permanent replacement for Peter. Should he make Rina a permanent offer or hire from outside? RSH Research Department RSH’s corporate culture was especially strong in its research division. Senior research analysts often began as junior analysts and remained at...
