Standard tbh. Buying good quality flat head screwdrivers will help. Especially ones with etched contact surfaces for better grip in the slot. Goes for all screwdrivers really - the right bit type, of decent quality makes the whole thing a world easier.

My ham-fistedness means my main bug with slot heads is how often I slip around and out of them, usually in the direction of my other hand or some delicate finish
Nobody likes protecting the area around a slot head more than gunsmiths, so for handy hints on avoiding a visit from Mr Bozo, watch gunsmithing vids, although it comes down to what @nefarious said; use a well made example of the right tool.
