I agree, Laurie. In fact, I find when people have a strong connection with their manager, that manager might encourage them to pursue their dreams outside the company. This is because the manager cares about them as a real person, not as a resource to be used up.
Unsurprisingly, when a manager builds this kind of relationship with people, they often cross paths in the future, either by returning to the original company or following the manager when they leave the company.

Absolutely! Couldn't agree more.
