Mentorship is vital for professional development in academic research and clinical practice, yet it faces challenges due to a limited number of experienced mentors and a lack of protected time for mentorship that may disproportionately affect women mentors in midcareer who are doing much of this "invisible work." The Push-Pull Mentoring Model offers a potential solution by emphasizing shared responsibility and active engagement between mentors and mentees; it fosters a flexible and collaborative approach that is mutually (though not necessarily equally) supportive of both individuals' career goals, with mentees pushing mentors up and facilitating opportunities in their realm of influence, including but not limited to sponsorship, while mentors are simultaneously pulling them up. The Push-Pull Mentoring Model provides a promising alternative to traditional mentoring models and may help institutions address the challenges associated with limited mentorship resources.
导师制对于学术研究和临床实践的专业发展至关重要，但由于经验丰富的导师人数有限，以及导师制缺乏受保护的时间，这可能会不成比例地影响处于职业生涯中期的女性导师，而她们承担了很多这种“无形工作”。推-拉式导师制模式通过强调导师和学员之间的共同责任和积极参与提供了一种潜在的解决方案；它促进了一种灵活和协作的方法，在这种方法中，双方（尽管不一定平等）都相互支持各自的职业目标，学员推动导师在他们的影响范围内提供机会，包括但不限于赞助，而导师则同时推动他们。推-拉式导师制模式为传统导师制模式提供了一个有前途的替代方案，并可能有助于机构应对与导师资源有限相关的挑战。
