SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Adderley Positive Research Incubator: Preeti Varma
DESCRIPTION:Adderley Positive Research Incubator\nHosted by: Center for Positive Organizations\n\n\"How Workers Become Captivated by an Imagined Future\"\nFeatured Scholar: Preeti Varma\, INSEAD\n\nDescription: In an ethnographic study of employees at Multivex (MV)\, an AI development company building frontier multimodal AI models\, I present a theoretical model describing the social construction of aspirational intoxication\, defined as a state of captivation with an imagined future. I find that workers confront a tension arising from the simultaneous promise and threat of advanced AI to society’s future—a tension amplified by accelerating technological capabilities and nested competitive races. This tension generates an intractable anxiety (moral\, existential\, and competitive) about the future. Rather than avoiding or accepting this anxiety\, workers engage in three cognitive processes—intellectualizing narratives\, abstracting identity\, and gamifying reality—that transform anxiety into fascination\, significance\, and thrill. This study helps explain how workers become increasingly invested in realizing transformative technological futures\, and how such investment reinforces the competitive dynamics that accelerate their development and sustain technological progress.

DESCRIPTION:Professor Yael Aronoff will discuss key issues surrounding the Israeli elections that took place on October 27th\, 2026. Her analysis will include looking back on the array of opposition parties to the Benjamin Netanyahu’s government over the past four years\, and the constellation of old and new political parties competing in the elections\; she will also examine the results of the election\, the potential government coalitions or actual coalitions formed\, and consider the implications for a variety of Israeli domestic policies\, including the possibilities of democratic backsliding or strengthening\, the impact on relations with Palestinians\, prospects for a two-state solution\, and the implications for Israel’s relations with its neighbors and with the United States.\n\nYael Aronoff [Ph.D. PLS\, Columbia U.] is the Director of the Michael and Elaine Serling Institute for Jewish Studies and Modern Israel (since 2014)\, is the Michael and Elaine Serling and Friends Chair of Israel Studies (since 2006) and is Professor of Political Science/International Relations in James Madison College at MSU.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Gender Differences in Promotion Desire: The Role of Managers (joint with Marianne Bertrand\, Patricia Cortes\, Hitoshi Shigeoka\, and Masayuki Yagasaki)
DESCRIPTION:Gender gaps in promotion remain widespread and are accounted for\, at least in part\, by gender differences in promotion desire. We study the role of managers in shaping the gender gap in promotion desire. Using detailed personnel data from the second largest property insurance company in Japan\, we leverage plausibly exogenous manager rotations to estimate each manager's effect on the promotion desire of the female employees they supervise. Event studies validate these estimates: moving to a manager with a higher estimated fixed effect raises women's promotion desire\, with no corresponding effect for men. The effects appear to operate through supportive\, development-oriented management\; managers less conducive to women's promotion desire tend to prioritize business outcomes over people development and impose longer hours in their teams.
