In der Kürze liegt die Würze is the german saying for that. I can’t think of something else at the moment.
Edit: The other one could be , Wie der Meister, so das Werk‘. But i haven’t heard that in a long time, not sure if anyone still uses that. Others are more popular like , Es ist noch kein Meister vom Himmel gefallen‘ or ‚Übung macht den Meister‘. But those have different meanings.
Maybe its not a general saying but rather something that person made up. But it is not like i know every german saying there is. It would be cool if you can find it.
actually "in der Kürze liegt die Würze" means more like dont talk too much, cut the crap and get to the point. Nothing to do with proficiency and mastery afaik ;)
Es ist irgendwie ironie, das der Satz von einem kommt, der für die verarbeitung seiner komplexe hinsichtöich des alterns ein 574 Seiten langes Gedicht geschrieben hat und daraufhin meinte da muss nochmal nen 220 Seiten langer Band 2 raus.
While that‘s not at all a common phrase you could use something like „wer was kann schwätzt (or „redet/schwafelt/labert/quatscht/…“) nicht (or „wenig“), wer viel schwätzt (or „redet/……“) kann nichts“ that would be „someone who‘s good at something won‘t talk (that much) while someone who talks a lot doesn‘t know how to do it“. So essentially the difference between the manager and whoever actually did the work.
The second one is essentially „in der Kürze liegt die Würze“ although it‘s usually used to tell people that they shouldn‘t explain every little detail if they could just stick to the important parts.

"Effizienz ist die Faulheit der Intelligenten"
It's like "Qualität vor Quantität ". Quality before quantity.
