Abstract

I had the privilege to learn from Dr Sharon Henry, the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) vice president, over the past year as the AAST Associate Membership Mentoring Scholarship recipient. This essay serves as a reflection on my year and was presented at the 2024 AAST Annual Meeting. Mentorship breaks down into two stages: finding a mentor and keeping a mentor. Finding a mentor can occur through a formal mentorship process or relationships formed organically. It takes a connection between two people and time for a relationship to form. Keeping a mentor takes effort and intentionality. Mentorship doesn't end when the scholarship does. It is fluid, without direction, without a timeline, and it will evolve. It will take effort and intention to keep a mentor, but the reward is so great for all that effort put in. Often, what we receive out of mentorship cannot be quantified but the impact is profound.

寻找并留住导师:一年的反思。
在过去的一年里,作为美国创伤外科协会(AAST)副主席,我有幸向该协会的准会员指导奖学金获得者莎伦-亨利(Sharon Henry)博士学习。这篇文章是对我这一年的反思,并在2024年AAST年会上发表。导师制分为两个阶段:寻找导师和留住导师。寻找导师可以通过正式的导师过程,也可以通过有机形成的关系。这种关系的形成需要两个人之间的联系和时间。留住导师需要努力和用心。导师关系不会随着奖学金的结束而结束。它是流动的,没有方向,没有时间表,而且会不断发展。留住导师需要努力和用心,但付出的努力会有丰厚的回报。通常,我们从导师那里得到的东西无法量化,但影响却是深远的。
