I think that this is actually a good thing. If everyone had the same internal world model, we would have very little innovation.

I try to train and mentor those that are junior to me. I try to show them what is possible, and patterns that result in failure. This training is often piecemeal and incomplete. As much as I can, I communicate why I do the things I do, but there are very few things I tell them not to do.

I am often surprised at the way people I have trained solve problems, and frequently I learn things myself.

Training is less successful for those who aren’t interested in their own contributions, and who view the job only as a means to get paid. I am not saying those people are wrong to think that way, but building a world view of work based on disinterest isn’t going to let people internalize training.
