The duties of our army to platoon leaders are as follows: the platoon leader is fully responsible for the work of the whole platoon. (1) Lead the whole platoon to implement combat readiness measures and command the whole platoon to complete combat tasks. (2) Lead the whole platoon to complete the military and political training tasks and improve the military and political quality of the whole platoon. (3) Lead the whole platoon to abide by the law, strictly implement rules and regulations, maintain normal life order and form a good style. (4) Educate the platoon to take good care of the equipment, and strictly implement the regulations on the maintenance, storage and use of the equipment. (five) to help monitor and vice monitor improve the ability of organization, command and management education. (six) to master the ideological status of the whole platoon, care for the soldiers, do a good job in ideological and political work, strengthen unity, and ensure the completion of various tasks. (seven) education and supervision of the platoon strictly confidential, the implementation of safety measures to prevent all kinds of accidents and cases. (eight) to complete other tasks assigned by the superior. At present, the platoon leader of our army mainly comes from the following aspects: first, local high school students who graduated from military schools; Second, some national defense students and local college students who accepted the enlistment; Third, soldiers who graduated from military schools. These three types of platoon leaders have similarities and their own characteristics. The first two lack the life experience of grass-roots units, so they may not adapt to the life of grass-roots units at first. Some new platoon leaders will feel that the life of grass-roots units is different from their own imagination, and they will have a strong sense of loss compared with their classmates who work in local areas. Even some new platoon leaders will have more extreme ideas, such as not wanting to work, changing jobs or changing jobs. However, these two types of platoon leaders have great "stamina" after they start their work. They are active, proactive, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about their work. The platoon leader of the soldier examination is familiar with the grass-roots units, and many even return to their original units. They get started quickly, and the soldiers have a high sense of identity with them. However, such platoon leaders are generally older and have lower academic qualifications. Sometimes I think too much about personal problems such as future development, marriage and family, and feel that the future is bleak compared with the first two platoon leaders, which sometimes affects my enthusiasm for work. Some even think that if they have a college degree, they will jump ship sooner or later, so it is better to jump ship early. In view of the characteristics of platoon leaders in grass-roots units at present, the company commander should do the following to bring them well and let them grow smoothly. First, care about life and provide convenience. The platoon leaders have just joined a new company, and they don't know much about all kinds of situations, so there are many inconveniences in their lives. At this time, company officials are required to take the initiative to care about their lives and provide convenience under the conditions allowed by the regulations. Only by living a comfortable and happy life will you be more energetic in your work. For older platoon leaders, we should pay more attention to marriage and family to solve their worries. A new platoon leader was assigned to a certain department because his father was ill at home, which affected his work. After learning the cause of the incident, the company officially contacted a well-known resident hospital to treat his father by using personal social relations. During his father's hospitalization, he took care of the platoon leader's life and work, and the platoon leader's family was very moved. Afterwards, the platoon leader worked more actively and was rated as "excellent grassroots cadre" at the end of the year. Second, strict management, pay attention to methods As the most basic unit, platoon leaders and soldiers eat, live together, work together, and their words and deeds have a great influence on soldiers. In some units, there is a phenomenon that Yan Bing is not strict with officials, which has a negative impact on the management of grass-roots companies. Therefore, in grass-roots companies, we must put an end to this kind of thing, and cadres must first do what soldiers should do. Some platoon leaders think that they are finally "cadres" and can relax. Their work standards are lower than when they were in military schools or soldiers. Some people always like to take time to meet friends and invite people to dinner. At this time, the chief officer of the company must dare to strictly manage and do whatever he wants. At work, the implementation of rules and regulations should not be sloppy. However, we must pay attention to the method. Cadres are different from soldiers. Generally speaking, cadres are more conscious. When talking in private, point it out and explain what went wrong and the bad consequences. Don't criticize in front of the soldiers regardless of weight, so you won't get good results, and it will also have a certain impact on the platoon leader's future work, and it will also lead to misunderstanding and estrangement. Third, actively train and actively guide as platoon leaders, most of them have just graduated from colleges and universities and have insufficient work experience. The ability to manage troops needs further training. Moreover, at present, many undergraduate platoon leaders only serve as platoon leaders for one year, and after one year they will become deputy company commanders or be transferred to institutions and other units. Many undergraduate cadres have this experience. Before the platoon leader understood it, he did something else and had no idea at all. This requires the company not only to use platoon leaders, but also to train platoon leaders. The company's method of training platoon leaders is very flexible. Generally speaking, it mainly depends on the company's chief officer to introduce experience and organize learning. In their work, they noticed the shortcomings of platoon leaders, pointed them out in time, discussed and formulated the company's work arrangements with platoon leaders, listened to their opinions, and pointed out their advantages and disadvantages. There is also the alternation between the old and the new, so that the experienced old platoon leader can bring a new platoon leader. In short, the process of training and guidance is not overnight, and it will take a long time to have good results. 4. Boldly use and moderately decentralize. Some companies and platoon leaders are not at ease in their work, and they want to grasp everything themselves. Even the appointment of the squad leader, the selection of elite soldiers, the re-election of non-commissioned officers and other things are not discussed with the platoon leader in advance, and the platoon leader is given the rank. Some platoon leaders said that it was useless to have a platoon leader, a squad leader for minor matters, and a company commander for major matters. The platoon leader could not get on the file halfway. This is not effective. Many company leaders say that grass-roots companies are busy and their eyes are too busy to turn off the lights. However, the platoon leaders of these companies are generally idle, which also illustrates the problem. For platoon leaders, they should use their duties freely in accordance with the regulations and are not afraid of making mistakes. The right of platoon leader should be given to platoon leader. Mobilize the enthusiasm of platoon leaders, so that the company's work can be efficient, which is also of great benefit to the growth of platoon leaders. 5. Set up a stage and give full play to their specialties. The company will also carry out various activities after work. At this time, platoon leaders with special skills can be organized and give full play to their talents. You can also follow the specialty of the platoon leader. Organize soldiers to carry out activities. For example, the second platoon leader of a company majored in computer science. I took several computer classes in the company computer room at the weekend, which not only helped him learn the basic computer operation, but also helped him learn more knowledge if he was interested, which was very helpful for soldiers to find jobs after leaving the army. Not only is the company willing to learn, but other companies also want to ask him to teach. Sixth, fair evaluation, timely recommend platoon leaders to serve for a period of time, and superiors may come to understand the situation. At this time, we must make a fair evaluation and don't say unrealistic things. If you have the opportunity, you should recommend it to your superiors in time to make them more motivated in their work and more promising in the future. Their enthusiasm for work will be further strengthened. The management of platoon leaders is different from that of soldiers, mainly relying on guidance and consciousness. We should be good at giving them burdens, assigning tasks and letting them play freely, which is good for the growth of platoon leaders and the construction of troops.
