“人才流失”怎么说 [ 2006-12-27 16:17 ]
有调查显示,国内40%优秀人才都流向了跨国公司,这不能不说是国内研发机构一大损失。不过,虽然跨国公司在华机构“挖”了中国本土企业人才资源的“墙角”,但从长远来讲,这有利于减少中国人才流失海外。
请看新华网相关报道:Multinationals in China have helped slow China's brain drain, although they posed great challenges
to local companies and research institutes, said a Chinese expert Friday.
A survey indicated that more and more local talents in China flowed to
multinationals since multinationals are mostly engaged in cutting-edge hi-tech
researches and offer high salaries.
报道中的“brain drain”指的是“人才因向有利的职业环境流动而引起(欠发达地区)的智囊枯竭”,即我们常说的“人才流失”。
“Brain”在此代指“高智商人才”,“drain”原意指“枯竭、干涸”,短语“brain drain”形象表达了本土人才外流后的尴尬处境。
与“brain drain”(人才外流)相对应的是brain gain(人才引进)。此外,仿拟“brain drain”,“brown
drain”常用来喻指“劳工外流”。
