Assignment 1: 8600 - 310 – Understanding How to Motivate People in the work place

Motivation in the workplace is very crucial for businesses and people. For most healthcare managers they have a lot of stress on them daily. As manager they provide leadership, guidance, and skills to their employees. Making sure the workplace operates correctly not only for the success as a team but also for the public. There are different ways motivations can affect us in a behavior standpoint. Quoted “Based on psychological and neurobiological theories of core affective experience, we identify a set of direct and indirect paths through which affective

The biggest problem to a manager is managing employees. This is because employers often do not know how to handle their employees. An effective manager knows that motivation is a difficult skill to acquire. So over the years, many theorist have studied motivation in order to

Social awareness of the doctors has made them dedicated to their job. Since other stakeholders are delinked from the problems that face the public, the doctors have to stand in and ensure that they do their best to preserve the heath of the people. Both books demonstrate that doctors are dedicated to their jobs and invest more energy and

Therefore, although I do not wish for my effectiveness to be judged based on the factors that Dr. Ofri discusses in Finding a Quality Doctor like blood pressure rates, or diabetes rate, practicing in a hospital means I likely will to some degree (Ofri). On the other hand, one of the principle factors of running a business is keeping their consumers happy. Therefore, within my practice, I will rely heavily on patient reviews, of which I will have them complete after each visit. I work best by hearing others’ critiques me thus; a patient’s voice will be imperative in my practice to help me make a better experience for them. Another factor to ensuring maximal patient satisfaction in a perfect world, is making sure that my patients’ have a significant ability to choose their course of care. Patient satisfaction and choice are factors that has repeatedly come up in my experience within New Visions, abroad, and at Bellevue. In our society, birth is often highly medicalized, filled with intervention. If it is taking too long for a mother to become fully dilated, then doctors are quick to prescribe Pitocin. If there is the slightest sign of danger, then doctors push for a C-section. In high school, I remember learning from my New Visions preceptor that nearly one in

Dr. DoRight has recently been hired as the President of the "Universal Human Care Hospital", where he oversees all departments with over 5,000 employees and over 20,000 patients at the medical facility. Dr. DoRight discovers that some patients within the hospital have been dying as a result of a variety of illegal procedures by doctors and nurses, and negligent supervision and oversight on their part. After two years, there have been no results from the investigation and some patients are still passing away due to the negligent activities. In this research paper I will discuss what Dr. DoRight, of Universal Human Care Hospital will do when he discovers that patients within the hospital have been dying as a result of a variety of illegal procedures by doctors and nurses and negligent supervision and oversight on their part.

Well Care Hospital is dedicated to conducting its business lawfully and ethically in Happy Town being a person centered medical home providing an environment of trust, integrity, and the highest ethical standards at all levels of the organization. Employed as the top health administrator at Well Care, during the past year I had to undergo training in personal conduct also inter-employee conduct. Well Care hospital over the past six months has been under scrutiny for breach of medical compliance that has severely tarnished the reputation of the hospital, decrease patient ratio, and substantial compensation. In efforts to protect as well as secure Well Care Hospital’s position in the market amongst the competitor health care organization’s in Happy Town. The hospital governing board also community stakeholders made it my obligation as top health administrator to address my position regarding professional conduct, medical conduct, medical negligence, and lastly the health care governing board’s position addressing medical non-compliance in a hospital environment.

In the health care system, a multitude of errors occurs on a daily basis. Doctors, nurses, orderly’s, etc., everyone in health care settings has responsibilities that warrant careful attention. This was exhibited in the case study titled ‘An Extended Stay’. In this case study, we are introduced to a middle-aged man in his 60s named Mr. Stanley Londborg. He presented with several health conditions, including a seizure disorder, hypertension (also known as high blood pressure), and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Londborg was no stranger to the hospital and was known fairly well by faculty members. Londborg paid a visit to the Emergency Room at the hospital complaining of wheezing and breathing complications. The physician that examined Mr. Londborg yielded his symptoms as an acute worsening of

The welcome signage on the hospital’s main entrance wall “We care for you” was the first thing the patient noticed as she entered the hospital. Though the patient was disappointed with the down for maintenance web page, the photographs of the hospital on the Practo web page met the patient’s expectations in reality. The interiors reflected a clean, glossy flooring, and a well-lighted ceiling. Therefore, the hospital was able to draw the patient’s attention through ambiance. When the doctor was about to examine the patient’s nose, he immediately disposed off the used nasal endoscopy tip. The surgeon gained the patient’s trust by doing so. The patient felt satisfied on using the restroom; the hospital reached patient’s expectations concerning cleanliness.

Motivation according to Kelley (2014) is the ‘process through which managers build the desire to be productive and effective in their employees’. If an employee is motivated, they are more likely to be productive and generally staff turnover is low. The problem of worker motivation is that workers are not seen as humans, they have a lack of freedom at the workplace and lack of job fulfilment. Taylor and McGregor Theory X argue that there is not a problem with worker motivation, workers will be obedient because of fear of losing their job motivates them to do well. Whereas Maslow and McGregor’s Theory Y argues that there is a problem with worker motivation because of class conflict between the worker and the manager. The

Motivation in the workplace is one of the major concerns that managers face when trying to encourage their employees to work harder and do what is expected of them on a day-to-day basis. According to Organizational Behavior by John R. Schermerhorn, James G. Hunt and Richard N. Osborn the definition of motivation is "the individual forces that account for the direction, level, and persistence of a person's effort expended at work." They go on to say that "motivation is a key concern in firms across the globe." Through the years there have been several theories as to what motivates employees to do their best at work. In order to better understand these theories we will apply them to a fictitious organization that has the following

Industrial/Organizational (I/O) Psychology is devoted to the study of employee behavior in the workplace and understanding the issues facing organizations and employees in today’s complex and ever changing environment. Motivation refers to the set of forces that influence people to choose various behaviors among several alternatives available to them. An organization depends on the ability of management to provide a positive, fostering and motivating environment for its employees in order to increase profits, productivity and lower turnover rates of its employees. The purpose of this paper is to discuss and compare six academic journal articles and explore the behavior, job, and need based theories of motivation that can aid management in motivating and understanding their employees. Finding that delicate balance to can sometimes be elusive so effectively learning how to motivate by understanding, controlling and influencing factors to manipulate behavior and choices that are available to employees can produce the desired outcome.

Motivation at work stimulates the interest of a person in an activity. Motivation at works is very complex because there are multiple motives operating at the same time. Goals motivate and guide workers' behaviors. Specific goals are better than general goals and little difficulty is better than easy goals. The degree of expectancy determines how much effort is put forth, people will work hard if they expect the effort will pay off. Increased job enrichment which includes more control at work and a high number of tasks to perform leads to high motivation. Stress on the job reduces motivation and productivity. The specific needs to achieve and

Motivation is one of the most discussed topics in the present era’s organisations, especially since renowned psychologists like Maslow and Herzberg are dedicating their efforts to understanding it. Companies are investing a significant amount of resources in improving productivity in order to maximise profits. One of these important resources is of human nature. In order to get the very best out of employees, some motivational approaches need to be used. But what is motivation and how do I successfully motivate? I will try to relate one of my personal experiences with a friend to some of the most influential motivational theories. After introducing my story and making a definition of motivation I will address the ideas of Taylor,
