Features: On January 7, 1994, the 24th Overpass of Santa Monica Freeway collapsed during the Los Angeles earthquake, subjecting Los Angeles traffic to unprecedented challenges. Hundreds of thousands of people were forced to take detours twice a day for work. The California government initially estimated that the bridge reconstruction project would take 12-18 months, a conclusion reached through precise calculations by a team of experts, theoretically flawless. However, in reality, no additional resources were allocated, yet the project was completed in just 67 days—a miracle created by effective human resource management! Understanding this point can create endless wealth for your business。——Harvard Business School Professor Samuel Augusz (Samuel·Augusz)

Harvard MBA and eBay CEO Steve Chen once said: "Many of China's technologies are advancing rapidly now, no less behind the West, and even surpassing them in innovation. However, in terms of system building and human management, they are lagging behind, affecting the overall progress."
China is a country with a large population. If it can fully and effectively allocate various resources and human efforts to achieve rational combinations, allowing the full potential of its 1.3 billion people to be unleashed, how many times could the GNP increase?
