Features: If all management is about using people to get things done, then how to use people effectively, how to achieve the maximum possible match between people and tasks, how to maximize the potential of people, and how to significantly improve work efficiency, are all issues worth serious discussion. If an organization invests in the formation and improvement of laborers' health, knowledge, and skills, and if this investment aims to generate new value that exceeds its cost, and if this new value can be owned and controlled by the investor, then this investment is a form of capital investment, and the value it creates is human capital. A good human resource plan should be able to achieve both corporate profitability and individual career advancement, fostering the common development of both the company and its employees. The core issue of management is the management of people. In the study of management, the issue of people has always been foundational, and various management schools are largely related to different understandings and approaches to this issue. Moreover, a series of related disciplines have emerged, studying management problems from the perspective of people, such as management economics, organizational behavior, and leadership science. Since its first publication, this book has received positive feedback from readers. The new edition incorporates the author's recent research findings. The book provides a comprehensive and systematic exploration of issues such as personnel matching, performance evaluation, and salary compensation, integrating this discussion with input-output analysis. This approach highlights the fundamental concepts of the book, clarifies its logical structure, and makes its language more lucid. This book is suitable for undergraduate students or readers at a similar level, as well as serving as a training textbook for corporate employees.
