带兵不能只盯着“最壮的苗” ■海军某部干部高亚帅转向、悬停、穿过障碍……伴随手中遥控器的精准操作，一架无人机动作流畅，顺利完成飞行。不久前的一天，连队组织装备操作小竞赛，我正为上等兵蒋凯龙的出色表现感到满意，二班班长余书强却忧心忡忡地找了过来，希望和我聊聊蒋凯龙。我有些不解。今年初岗位调整，我到排里工作后发现，新兵基础薄弱、训练尖子短缺。见蒋凯龙工作认真，又有一股不服输的劲，我便将他作为“苗子”培养，不仅训练带他“开小灶”，还尽可能提供机会让他担负重要任务。可以说，蒋凯龙是我一手培养起来的，他也没有辜负我的信任，表现一直可圈可点。 “小蒋怎么了？我看他状态挺好啊，这不还在刚才的竞赛中得了第二名吗？”“您看见他得了第二名，看见其他战友了吗？洪军灿天天加练、谢伟每次训练结束都找老兵请教技巧，他们在这次竞赛中都进步明显，您注意到了吗？” 一心想着蒋凯龙，我确实没注意到其他人，一时有些语塞。见状，余书强叹了口气，接着说道：“连续3次对抗训练，都是小蒋担任小组长；示范任务展示，义务兵里您只让他去；比武竞赛，您第一个想到的也是他，其他有潜力、想进步的战友会怎么想？” 余书强的话让我一个激灵。最初，我重点培养蒋凯龙，一是想尽快改变排里没有训练尖子的现状，二是希望借此在排里立起一个“标杆”，激发大家的训练工作热情。但时间长了，见蒋凯龙对各项工作越来越熟悉，我便什么任务都让他负责，竟然忘记了自己的初衷。一枝独秀不是春，百花齐放春满园。我只盯着“最壮的苗”，却忘记了整片“树林”的均衡生长，忽视了其他更多的“好苗子”——难怪我总觉得最近排里氛围沉闷。找到原因后，我召集骨干，向大家承认错误。随后，又一起分析全排战士的特点与发展潜力，一一制订培养方案。一方面引导蒋凯龙发挥“头雁”作用，帮带基础薄弱的新兵；另一方面充分挖掘其他战士的潜力，为他们提供锻炼机会。很快，训练场上不再总是蒋凯龙的“个人秀”，每名战士都有了展示机会，大家各显其能，训练热情和集体荣誉感明显提升。在前几天的一次综合训练中，蒋凯龙与其他骨干带领新兵默契配合，表现优异，获得上级表扬。看着大家灿烂的笑脸，我再次告诫自己，培养尖子固然重要，但连队班排是一个集体，“只见树木不见森林”绝非长远之计，只有整体过硬，单位才能不断向上向好发展。（解放军报特约记者陈铭杨整理）

Summary

Machine summary

An officer in an unidentified naval unit describes correcting a talent-management failure in which he concentrated training opportunities, demonstration missions, and skills competitions on a single high-performing conscript, Private First Class Jiang Kailong, at the expense of the broader platoon. The problem the article documents is a structural incentive in PLA unit-level training: junior leaders under pressure to produce visible standouts quickly default to concentrating resources on one soldier, which depresses collective readiness and morale. This fits a recurring pattern in PLA Daily political-work content that uses first-person officer narratives to surface and correct specific leadership failures — its value is as a record of how the institution frames the tension between individual benchmark cultivation and unit-wide development, aimed at junior officers managing new-soldier cohorts.
