Summary/Abstract: Europe is recovering from a crisis, but in the course of this recovery it lacks a competitive edge over other continents. Talent is listed in the EU 2020 Strategy as a competitive value of Europe. We have to face up to the fact that Europe has a huge talent deficit. Firms, governments, countries increasingly search for talent. Many people imagine that this has become a talent war. They believe that the economic crisis has put a premium on talent and that, in a crisis situation, only the best, the geniuses survive – that the winner takes all. This is a widespread misconception.
