Features: If you are the boss, you should read this book; if you work for a boss, you should read it even more; if you are neither a boss nor an employee, then I advise you to study this book seriously as soon as possible—because in the future of China, the vast majority of citizens will fall into one of these two categories—either becoming a boss or an employee. Today, everyone will say that all competition in enterprises ultimately boils down to a competition for talent. Based on my experience as a professional manager for over a decade, it is undeniable that the boss themselves are undoubtedly the talent of the enterprise. The development of a business ultimately depends on its talent—the boss. Professional managers are hired by the boss, and if they perform well, the ultimate credit and benefits go to the boss; if they perform poorly, the main responsibility and the greatest victim is also the boss. Valuing talent and prioritizing people are almost every boss's cliché, whether they are just making a show of it or speaking from the heart. However, an undeniable fact is that conflicts between bosses and professional managers always exist, and the two sides rarely collaborate long-term. There are more complex and deeper reasons beyond mutual communication and understanding, and the conclusion will naturally become clear once you finish this book.
