Aims: To describe the mentoring competence of clinical practice nurse mentors and identify different mentor profiles.
Design: Cross-sectional research design, secondary analysis.
Methods: An international, cross-sectional study design was performed in five European countries. A total of 1 604 mentors from 33 healthcare organizations participated in the study between 2016-2019. The Mentors' Competence Instrument (MCI), which includes seven sub-dimensions and 44 items, was used to collect data. K-means cluster and binary regression analyses were performed to detect mentor profiles and determine how various factors affect competence, respectively.
Results: The K-means cluster analysis identified three distinct profiles: A (n = 926); B (n = 566); and C (n = 85). The profiles showed significantly different values (p < .001) across all seven areas of mentoring competence. In comparison with the other profiles, nurses in profile A were older, had more work experience and were more probably to have completed mentoring-specific training.

Article Synopsis
- In Indian states, many public health programs are led by clinicians lacking formal leadership training, prompting Uttar Pradesh to launch a Public Health Management and Leadership program for mid-career medical officers to enhance their administrative skills.
- The training included essential skills such as leadership, communication, and problem-solving through in-person sessions and hands-on projects, with participant feedback measured via Kirkpatrick's model and statistical analyses showing notable but moderate improvements in learning outcomes.
- Despite high satisfaction with the program, participants struggled to apply management concepts due to contextual limitations and barriers like resource constraints and gender stereotypes, suggesting a need for additional training in finance and human resources.
