(1) Looking for career anchors and building a career goal system Many trainers not only participate in the training of enterprises, but also serve as enterprise managers or university teachers. It can be said that a trainer is a compound occupation and one of the multiple professional identities of individuals, and it is easier to face career choices. When faced with a choice, finding one's own career anchor to build one's own career goal system will help to improve one's personal achievement, increase successful experience and further improve one's sense of professional self-efficacy.
Career anchor is a deep-seated view of oneself, and career anchor is also the internal motivation to engage in career. For trainers, as a compound profession, finding their own career anchor can help them guide, restrain or stabilize their careers, strengthen their career beliefs, turn their careers into careers, and maintain a high sense of professional self-efficacy when facing career choices.
After finding a professional anchor and clarifying the motivation of being a trainer, we need a perfect career goal system to provide a clear external label and feasible scheme for professional anchors. Therefore, the career goal system should not only have the ultimate goal closely combined with the career anchor, but also contain a series of challenging sub-goals that adapt to the current situation. The ultimate goal is the external performance of the career anchor, a clear and concrete vision, and a self-motivation device of the whole goal system. It can help aspiring "teachers" get rid of the fetters of common things, concentrate resources on their core competitiveness, and constantly generate self-satisfaction in the process of gradually realizing their professional goals. This kind of experience from one's own success or failure plays the greatest role in improving professional self-efficacy, and is the builder of trainers' stable professional self-efficacy. Sub-goal is the cornerstone of the ultimate goal, which provides an objective reference standard for the professional ability of trainers. Achieving challenging sub-goals can not only enrich professional skills, but also easily stimulate personal professional interest. The sense of success and satisfaction sometimes even exceeds high-level goals, which has a strong incentive effect on professional self-efficacy.
The best way to get a valuable future in the workplace is to use career anchor to guide the career goal system, combine long-term ambition with short-term self-guidance, build career self-efficacy with continuous improvement of behavioral achievements, and ensure the continuous growth of career self-efficacy with phased progress indicators. (2) Positive attribution, implementing the principle of feeling successful. If training is an activity to help employees learn work-related abilities in a planned way, [4] then a trainer is a person who helps employees master relevant abilities and get out of trouble. He needs to give employees confidence in training activities and make them feel successful. Therefore, the trainer himself is the person who needs confidence and has the most sense of success. And this kind of successful experience is the most powerful information source of professional self-efficacy.
Bandura believes that if success is attributed to ability rather than luck or help from others, the sense of self-efficacy can be strengthened. Therefore, through certain attribution training procedures, trainers should consciously master attribution skills, treat success or failure rationally, strengthen the expectation of future success, and turn the concept of "I can't do it" into the belief of "I can do it".
After each training task, the trainer should take the initiative to get feedback from superiors and subordinates, customers and peers, and sort out all kinds of evaluation information, and compare it with previous evaluations vertically. When the task is successfully completed, the trainer should attribute the successful experience to his own ability or efforts, and firmly believe that success comes from the rational use of training methods, not a temporary glib talk; From the promotion of their own professional ability, rather than the promotion of superiors. The satisfaction and successful emotional experience brought by positive attribution will form a virtuous circle with professional self-efficacy and enhance the trainer's belief in this profession.
Of course, simple attribution training has little effect on efficiency change. Attribution without factual support will only bring short-term effects. Only by clarifying the reasons for success or failure and strengthening one's professional ability can one avoid belief becoming fantasy. Persuasion becomes preaching, which can help trainers truly feel successful. (3) Strengthen communication among peers and look for "role models" on the career path. Trainers need to have high communication skills. Extensive interpersonal communication can not only train trainers' communication skills and help them grasp the pulse of market demand, but also enable trainers to understand the difficulty of tasks from the side, understand the training tasks and the special needs of training customers in advance, learn from the successful experiences of others and avoid repeating the failures of others. More importantly, interpersonal communication, especially communication with peers, can help trainers improve their professional self-efficacy.
In the process of communicating with peers, trainers can improve their professional self-efficacy through observation and learning. When listening to other trainers' lectures and learning their training notes, others' successful behaviors become "role models". Therefore, on the one hand, we can master the corresponding vocational skills through imitation, enhance the effectiveness of our own behavior, and thus improve our sense of professional self-efficacy. On the other hand, it can provide an objective evaluation standard for one's own behavior. More importantly, we can understand the thinking strategy of "giving examples" in conversation. The thinking skills of guiding behavior by expressing words are more informative than the demonstration behavior itself, and the thinking demonstration combining observation with behavior benefits more than observing simple behavior. Therefore, a stronger sense of professional self-efficacy can be established.
The role of "example" is not limited to imparting skills and inducing thinking, but also lies in inspiring. The road to success is long and full of thorns. The successful demonstration of "role model" to overcome many difficulties and make unremitting efforts can help trainers maintain their professional self-efficacy beliefs in difficult times.
