to explore experiences of being mentored and the contribution of the mentoring to leadership and professional development of doctorally prepared nurses and doctoral nursing students participating in the Nurse-Lead programme.
Mentoring is considered important for career development of academic nurses. Doctorally prepared nurses need a wide range of professional competences to develop sustainable careers. Therefore, they may benefit from a larger network of mentors, outside their own organization, to support their professional development. Therefore, a web-based leadership and mentoring programme was developed - the Nurse Lead programme.
A descriptive study with semi-structured focus groups.
Three focus groups were conducted during an on-site programme meeting in 2019 with twenty-one doctorally prepared nurses and doctoral nursing students. The interview guide included questions about mentoring relationships and meaning of mentoring for leadership and professional development. The interviews were thematically analysed.
Five themes were identified: "Preferred characteristics of mentors", "Developing trusting relationships", "Engagement of the mentors", "Becoming a proficient researcher and team leader" and "Becoming an empowered and confident professional".
Mentoring supported the leadership and professional development of doctorally prepared nurses and doctoral nursing students. Participants were engaged in rewarding mentoring trajectories. The results indicate that a similar approach could be followed when developing mentoring programmes in the future.
探讨接受指导的经验以及指导对参与护士领导计划的具有博士学历的护士和护理博士生的领导力和专业发展的贡献。
指导被认为对学术护士的职业发展很重要。具有博士学历的护士需要广泛的专业能力来发展可持续的职业。因此，他们可能受益于更大的导师网络，超越自己的组织，以支持他们的专业发展。因此，开发了一个基于网络的领导力和指导计划-护士领导计划。
具有半结构化焦点小组的描述性研究。
2019 年在一次现场计划会议上进行了三次焦点小组，共有 21 名具有博士学历的护士和护理博士生参加。访谈指南包括有关指导关系和指导对领导力和专业发展的意义的问题。对访谈进行了主题分析。
确定了五个主题：“导师的首选特征”、“建立信任关系”、“导师的参与”、“成为熟练的研究人员和团队领导者”和“成为有能力和自信的专业人员”。
指导支持了具有博士学历的护士和护理博士生的领导力和专业发展。参与者参与了有益的指导轨迹。结果表明，未来在开发指导计划时可以采用类似的方法。
