Everyone contributing fully and every resource used fully — that's the management ideal.
Tips
history
From 《淮南子·兵略训》 (Han dynasty): 若乃人尽其才，悉用其力 — 'if everyone exerts their talent and uses all their strength.' A classical ideal of efficient statecraft, often paired with 物尽其用 (every object used fully) and 地尽其利 (every plot of land yields its best).
register
Formal and admiring — common in management writing, policy speeches, organizational descriptions. The implicit subject is usually the system or leader who enables this ('the manager 让 everyone 人尽其才'), not the workers themselves.
