每日原则：让合适的人做合适的事

为使人与设计相匹配，先制定一个规格表，形成一套一致的标准，用于从招募到考核的全过程。桥水的规格表中所涵盖的特质与我们的棒球卡是一样的。

不要因人设职。长期来看，这一举动几乎总是错的。你不想辞退的人表现不佳，你却仍倾向于为他另外再找一个差事，这种情况很常见。管理者常常不能客观对待自己的优缺点，使自己置于不当之位。

When building a “machine,” design precedes people because the type of people you will need will depend on the design. As you design, create a clear mental image of the attributes required for each person to do their job well. It is futile to give responsibilities to people who do not have the qualities required to succeed. It frustrates, and inevitably angers, all parties, which is damaging to the environment.
