Xinhua reported that the Central Coordination Group for Talent Management held a meeting on August 24, 2012, to “study and plan the work needed to strengthen the Party’s ability to manage talent.” Li Yuanchao, the head of the Organization Department, stressed the importance of carrying out the “Opinion on the Work of Strengthening the Party’s Ability to Manage Talent,” which the central administration recently issued. Li asked all levels to execute the guidelines in the “Opinion” and to implement the Party’s talent management system.
According to the article, the “Opinion” is a guideline developed under the new environment. It laid out systemic requirements which will enable the Party to be completely in charge of talent management, while the rest of the government entities should carry out their responsibilities and actively assist the Party.
