It’s hard partially because people vary in their approaches to a task. But mostly it’s because people’s working paces and styles are very different.When I begin to instruct someone, I first give the big picture of the project and where our group fits into it. Next, I set up daily, weekly and monthly agendas and goals. These help new people understand what we need to accomplish by the end of each training section. But people can be so impatient with all this step-by-step training. They get the task and immediately begin to think of the ways to make the process better. I tell them that before they do that, they probably should understand why things are done the way they are.I’ve learned two important lessons through my experiences in training people. One is that everyone is different; I can’t force others to learn things my way. The second is to leave room for the trainees to grow. Who knows—they might come up with newer and better ideas. Isn’t that why companies like to hire new blood?
