Management Talent Leaving in Droves for Private Equity
According to this Business Week article, top managers are fleeing public companies for jobs with private equity funds to hunt for deals, head portfolio companies, or both. The attractions are twofold: money and freedom. The pay can be outrageously good even at the entry levels; for CEOs, it can be spectacular. The flexibility is alluring, ...

The Council on Foreign Relations puts on some really impressive webcasts/conference calls. Here’s one TOTM readers may be especially interested in (if, that is, you’re one of those lucky people who doesn’t get hives listening to extended bouts of highly-politicized self rationalization): The SEC in a Globalizing Securities Market: A Conversation with the Past Four ...

Blogging and Tenure
I had my post-decision debriefing meeting with our Reappointment, Tenure and Promotion (RP&T) Committee this week (I got promoted to associate). This was my first RP&T meeting since I started blogging so I was interested in getting the committee’s take on it. Without a doubt it is favorable. In fact, to my surprise the committee ...

A break in the invisible hand
It seems that I have broken my hand. Blogging will suffer (or improve, depending on your point of view). I know my co-bloggers will continue to provide the sort of top-notch commentary you’ve come to expect from TOTM, and I will strive to peck out a couple of posts over the next few weeks.
The ABA, the AALS, and the Rule of Law
In an op-ed published in Saturday’s W$J (slightly updated version available here for free), Prof. David Bernstein drew attention to the American Bar Association’s proposed revision to its law school accreditation standards concerning student and faculty racial diversity.

Pennsylvania Changes Rules for Sovereign
I’ve blogged before about Soveriegn’s proposed acquisition of Community Bank and related stock issuance to Santander. Sovereign’s largest shareholder, Relational Investors, is against the deal and petitioned the NYSE to block it (see here). The NYSE declined. I applauded the NYSE for this decision (see here), largely because it enforced its rules as written and ... Pennsylvania Changes Rules for Sovereign
