Features: "Quality is free." As the renowned international quality master Klaus says. "Excellent talent is free." This book also states this as its core principle. Is this really the case? The answer is undeniable. It is undeniable that hiring an excellent talent indeed requires a substantial salary, but the performance they deliver is several times, or even dozens of times, that of ordinary employees. It is precisely these excellent talents who can truly elevate a company to one height after another, thereby winning in competition and moving from excellence to greatness. Those relatively mediocre employees not only have average performance but also require the company to invest enormous financial and intellectual resources in coaching, training, post-work improvement, and rectifying their mistakes and errors. They are indeed expensive. For enterprises, "excellent talent is free" is a principle upheld by Fortune 500 companies. Whether in talent selection and development or in talent utilization and retention, they never deviate from this concept and principle. For individuals, how to become excellent talent, how to surpass mediocrity and avoid being eliminated, is an eternal challenge that every professional in the workplace should face. Excellent talent is competitiveness, and competitiveness is usually free!
