The hand-wringers on this board have never been approached by another company/organization about a possible promotion. So, they have no clue how it works.
Here is how it works:
1. They approach you saying they would like to speak with you about a position which constitutes a promotion.
2. In a high-profile situation like this, you inform your boss (Dr. Gross in this case).
3. You talk with them.
4. You may get an offer, or you may not.
5. If you get an offer, there may be negociations about the terms.
6. If you conclude that it is in your best interest, you take it. If not, you go back to your old job.
7. Meanwhile, if he really wants you to stay (and clearly Dr. Gross would very much like Marrone to stay), your boss goes to his boss to restructure your deal. (By the way, this is very much what Dr. Gross needs to push his agenda forward to get new facilities, more $$, etc.)
8. Life goes back to normal.
There is NOTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY GOING ON HERE.
