The party's 20 major reports state that the construction of world centres of excellence and innovative highlands is being accelerated, that a rational regional distribution and coordinated development of talent is being promoted and that efforts are being made to create a comparative advantage for international competition for talent. It is a scientific reflection and a systematic arrangement for a comprehensive and in-depth promotion of the talent-powering country strategy, an innovation-driven development strategy based on a higher threshold, a higher level of ambition and a higher anchor in our country, and provides clear direction for the work of talent。
In the international competition for talent, the comparative advantage is essentially the economic productivity of the human being, expressed in the dynamic game between countries, the size, quality, effectiveness and innovation of a country。
At a time when the country has achieved a historic leap in its innovation and scientific and technological capabilities and has significantly increased its competitiveness, there is still room for considerable improvement in the quantity and quality of high-level talent, the talent structure needs to be further optimized, the national strategic talent capacity needs to be further strengthened, and the comparative advantage of investing in international competition for talent is a necessary route to the construction of strong nations。
Optimizing the talent environment for international exchange
It is only by building an enabling environment for human growth and development that talent can be brought to bear and its contribution can our country's appeal to talent be assured。
The creation of a better human resource environment in the country requires, on the one hand, the strengthening of the hardware environment and increased funding to ensure that the working conditions of scientific research are in line with those of international excellence; and, on the other hand, the investment in public services to provide a stable living environment for human resources and ensure their successful integration into the local system, as well as the continuous development of a sense of home ownership. On the other hand, a high-quality software environment needs to be created in which all levels of society are guided by a positive and sincere attitude, an inclusive culture, and scientifically sound policy. At the same time, in the macro-level context, support for the talent-rich countries'strategies must be strengthened by means of major strategic deployments, policies and initiatives aimed at creating a social climate in which talent, talent-loving and talent-intensive people can work at the top level, so as to effectively guide their development. At the micro-level, there is still a need for awareness-raising at the grass-roots level, the implementation of talent policies, the upgrading of standards of treatment for talent and the provision of a variety of complementary services。
At the same time, in the context of economic globalization, the flow of the world's talent has become more frequent. Active international exchanges are an important way to make our country a centre of talent and an innovative highlands, in the context of the current shortage of high-level talent and the remaining gap between the best technology and the best education levels in the developed west。
With the opening-up gesture of heinawakawa, the unswerving strategic will and the ambition of the great powers that are spinning, we will adhere to the basic state policy of opening up to the outside world, promote the “go-out” exchange of talent within the country, further adapt the concept and orientation of the work of talent abroad, move from talent occupation to talent use, move away from all but all of the key talent for use, and continually raise the level of talent in our country and add value to domestic and foreign talent exchange。
Building institutional strengths and improving institutional mechanisms
The national system is an advantage of the government's concentration of efforts on the basis of a market economy and an important manifestation of the advantage of china's socialist system. The institutional strength of the nation must be sustained by a strong national strategy that involves the active participation of all actors at all levels。
The government needs to put in place mechanisms for the management of skilled personnel, while strengthening the rule of law and protecting the right to work. The employer must focus on talent selection, talent recruitment, talent development and talent motivation. The talent market must maintain market order, market competition, market rules, market prices。
The system, which determines the impact of the philosophy of talent orientation, affects the extent to which talent is integrated into the indigenous system and is valued, and plays a key role in increasing the attractiveness and competitiveness of talent in the country。
To make our country a centre of talent and an innovative heights, a sound talent system is the focus. China's specialty talent system is an important component of china's specialty socialist system, which has been refined since the reform and opening up of the country. It is also necessary to draw on international experience and its long-term effectiveness in improving the talent market, optimizing the mobility of talent and clarifying the course of talent development。
The talent evaluation mechanism is a powerful tool for sound talent systems and the formation of international competitive comparative advantages。
Investing in evaluation mechanisms is innovative and requires the establishment of objective and convincing evaluation criteria that are both pluralistic and uniform, with a full evaluation of talent and a “water level” and a rejection of “colored glasses”. A reasonable and appropriate evaluation cycle is to be defined that rewards immediate performance while focusing on long-term potential and a dynamic vision of talent, talent focus and evaluation. Qualified and efficient evaluation subjects need to be nurtured, evaluation capacity of users strengthened and market-oriented evaluation elements emphasized. Scientificly sound methods of evaluation should be developed, drawing on advanced international experience. Ultimately, sound evaluation mechanisms with equity, science and applicability will be established。
Improved educational system and digitalization
The development of our educational system is fundamental to the development of talent, a core initiative to expand the pool of potential talent and a strategic need to meet the challenges of international talent competition。
The fundamental task of building our educational system is the “leddrians”. There is a need to further promote the balanced and quality development of compulsory education and to close the gap in educational resources between urban and rural areas. Quality education needs to be developed, educational dynamism strengthened and innovative talent developed. The important role of higher education in the development of strategic scientists, leading science and technology leaders and innovation teams, young science and technology talent, etc., needs to be strengthened to form an international comparative advantage of the talent structure. The integration of vocational education, continuing education and the promotion of diversified development, the creation of a well-structured workforce of highly qualified engineers, great craftsmen, highly skilled people, etc., and attention to special education and equity in education。
In the context of the burgeoning of talent competition, the digitalization of talent, the promotion of the application of digital tools, the acquisition of information on the state-of-the-art talent structure, the number and distribution of talent in all sectors, the creation of a solid foundation for talent exchange and cooperation, and the creation of a comparative advantage in international competition for talent。
Top-level guidance is needed to integrate national big data strategies with global big talent development to provide solid safeguards for talent data collection and application. To build a global vision, global talent data are collected at all levels, multidisciplinary and in-depth, with a view to producing a global map of the geographical distribution of talent and the sectoral structure. It is important to focus on the field of practice, to further develop a global talent database, to study the applications and domestic needs of a wide range of talent, to monitor dynamically and to prepare for talent evaluation and talent strategies. The digital development and internet tools will be used to try to expand the means of exchange of talent. The rule of law needs to be strengthened to prevent risks in the collection of data on talent and reduce legal costs。
