At work, we are the masters of newcomers, and we should be strict in business study and not relax at all to help apprentices better master their work skills; In life, we should be friends of new people, talk more, understand the psychological state of the apprentice, and really care about the apprentice. Establishing a teacher-friend relationship with an apprentice can not only bring a good apprentice, but also gain friends.
Don't "save one hand", be "one step ahead"
There is an old saying in China that "teach the apprentice to starve to death". Many "smart" teachers will "save one hand" when taking the apprentice to prevent the apprentice from surpassing himself and grabbing the job. But in fact, only those masters who spare no effort to bring out excellent apprentices are really not starved to death. Because if you want to give someone a glass of water, you have to have a bucket of water. Taking an apprentice is not only a process to help the apprentice grow up, but also a process for the master to improve himself. Master can not only improve business skills, but also learn management skills such as counseling and communication, laying the foundation for future career development. Only by bringing an apprentice can a team be managed well. Therefore, when taking an apprentice, don't "save one hand", but "be one step ahead".
There are no stupid apprentices, only stupid masters.
Many teachers will complain that the apprentice is too stupid to teach, and there is really no way to take the apprentice. In fact, the apprentice can't learn, not because the apprentice is stupid, but because the master's counseling mentality and methods are inappropriate. When an apprentice can't learn, the master must first reflect on whether his parenting style is reasonable. Only by using the right methods can apprentices master new skills easily and quickly. ?
Guo Jing, the hero of the martial arts novel The Legend of the Condor Heroes, has been taught martial arts by his master "Seven Weird Men in the South of the Yangtze River" for many years since he was a child, but Guo Jing's progress is extremely slow. The seven masters all think that Guo Jing is gifted and stupid. However, Ma Yu, a Taoist priest of Quanzhen Sect, only taught Guo Jing for more than a year, so that Guo Jing's martial arts improved greatly, surpassing his master, the Seven Monsters in the South of the Yangtze River, and then Guo Jing became a hero with his step-by-step efforts. Therefore, there are no stupid apprentices, only stupid masters, and those who can teach "stupid apprentices" are truly capable masters.
Train your disciples as you train yourself.
When tutoring an apprentice, you should think more from the apprentice's point of view. "If I am an apprentice, what do I want my master to help me do and in what way? What problems do I need the master to help me solve? " What you think is what your apprentice needs. Empathy can help you better understand your apprentice and know how to help him grow. By cultivating an apprentice like you, you can become a good teacher and bring out a good apprentice.
