Sumario:AIM: To deepen our research on how to develop a more positive life purpose, this study investigates the role of protégés’ self‐concordance and mentor feedback environment in shaping protégés’ life purpose. METHOD: This study was a cross‐sectional study using a sample of nurses. 700 valid questionnaires were collected. Jamovi and Process Macro were used for analysis. RESULTS: The positive association between self‐concordance and protégés’ life purpose is stronger when mentor feedback environment is high than when mentor feedback environment is low. CONCLUSION: Protégés’ life purpose can be enhanced by self‐concordance, especially for protégés who work in supportive mentor feedback environment. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: It is important to build a supportive mentor feedback environment. Further, protégés should promote the transformation of extrinsic motivation to intrinsic motivation.
