They all enlisted in the same year. Because of the time sequence, there is a difference between "new recruits" and "old recruits", and therefore, they are treated differently by the backbone of the squad leader.

The troubles of "old recruits"

  Our reporter Hong Zhi correspondent Gong Peiwen Cao Baixin


  Some time ago, Zhou Peng, an instructor of a rocket artillery company in a brigade of the 72nd Group Army, found that privates Xu Tao and Chen Feiyu, who had just joined the army for a year, were in poor condition and were often criticized. Their performance in daily life and training was very different from before, or even worse Recruits who enlisted half a year later than them.

  During the survey, many backbones reported that they were in a similar situation in their platoons. They also deliberately classified this part of the privates into one category and called them "old recruits".

"Compared with the 'new recruits' who have just joined the army, some 'old recruits' are really not that active." "They are all soldiers of the same age. Even if they can't set an example for new comrades, their performance is getting worse and worse"... Listen to everyone seven After talking about it, Zhou Peng realized the seriousness of the problem, so he asked Xu Tao and Chen Feiyu and other soldiers who had joined the army in the same batch to learn more about the situation.

  "The squad leader treated us very well in the past. It was called a 'caring for extra care', but now he doesn't care about us much." Xu Tao reflected that since the recruits came in the squad, the attention of the squad leader's backbone has shifted, and they These "old recruits" were left out.

As a result, Xu Tao, who was a little out of balance in his heart, sometimes even deliberately "bubble" in order to attract the attention of the monitor.

"Actually, our group of soldiers has only been in the company for half a year, and they have not fully adapted to the new environment. When there were troubles or difficulties in the past, the backbone of the squad leader could find and help solve them at the first time, but now they only see new comrades in arms."

  Xie Jianghua, a new recruit in the same class as Chen Feiyu, was in the forefront of the whole company in the first place in the grenade throwing performance. , but not much earlier, I haven't mastered many skills yet. But when the new comrades are connected, I become an 'old comrade', so I don't have the nerve to compete with them for the help of the squad leader."

  The words of several soldiers made Zhou Peng laugh with laughter, but after calming down and reflecting, it did reflect that there was a problem with the company's work.

In the past, recruits had one year to familiarize themselves with the troops and adapt to their positions. When the next batch of recruits went to the company, most of them had grown into veterans who could be on their own, especially taking on new training tasks.

However, since the conscription policy was changed to "two conscriptions and two retirements a year", the renewal rate of conscripts has accelerated significantly, but it has also shortened the growth time of each batch of recruits to a certain extent.

  Thinking of this, Zhou Peng thinks that these "old recruits" are justifiable for their ideological problems.

Solving the bell also needs to be linked to the bell. Since everyone attributed the problem to the squad leader backbone, then seek solutions from the squad leader backbone.

  Zhou Peng immediately convened the squad leaders to discuss, jointly study and improve the method of leading troops, and come up with countermeasures: effectively understand the needs of the private group, help them clarify their own positioning, find the direction of their efforts, and stimulate growth momentum; "One" mechanism, a squad leader's backbone counterpart gang leads a private, through appropriate burdens and assignments, to increase the enthusiasm of privates to participate in the company's work; in small competitions and small competitions, "new recruits" and "old recruits" Divide into a group, and through fighting side by side and competing in the same field, discover the "bright spots" in each other, and guide them to learn from each other's strengths and make progress together.

  After a while, the results were immediate.

Recently, Xu Tao took advantage of his good writing foundation and good photography skills to cultivate a number of news reporting backbones for the company; Chen Feiyu represented the company in preparation for the brigade rifle shooting competition, and through hard training in eyesight, arm strength, and concentration, he finally won the second place personally; The soldiers Gao Chun and Teng Yichen, who joined the army with the two of them, also changed their negative state and actively asked the squad leader for professional knowledge, and their training results improved by leaps and bounds...

To lead troops, we must respond to changes in policy

  ■Hongzhi

  It is the usual practice of the backbone of cadres to regard the recruits of the next company as the focus of their work for a while, and it is understandable.

However, after the implementation of the "two expeditions and two retirements a year" policy, as the speed of recruits becoming "veterans" accelerates, this approach needs to be improved, otherwise the situation of "new recruits in the same year, two situations" mentioned in the report will easily occur .

All levels should attach great importance to this issue.

  The adjustment of the conscription policy will inevitably require the improvement of the way of leading troops. Some of the commonly used and effective methods in the past are no longer suitable for the new situation.

However, in real work, there are still some soldiers who hold outdated experience and are insensitive to new situations and problems, or are reluctant to make changes even if they realize it.

Leading troops is an art as well as a science. It is complex and complicated, and simple and simple. The key is whether it can change with time, vary from person to person, and take advantage of the situation.

  At present, our army is in a critical period of deepening reform and transformation and development. There are many changes and rapid development. This requires soldiers to have the courage to break the inertial thinking, dare to abandon outdated concepts, and be good at innovating the way of leading soldiers.

Unchangeable.

As long as we keep close to the actual development of the army, the actual thinking of officers and soldiers, and the actual job requirements, and lead the troops scientifically, civilly, and with love, we will not be able to bring out batches of good soldiers who can fight.
