Title: Employee recognition award--it pays. Author: Edsel WM. Journal: Med Group Manage; 1981; 28(4):46, 48, 50. PubMed ID: 10252438. Abstract: Industrial psychologists agree that reasons for motivation are difficult to pinpoint. Two basic schools of thought prevail. One theory is that individuals must have built-in motivation factors, while another contends that people can be motivated by positive stimuli. Either way, both sides generally agree that an open, positive working environment encourages workers to fulfill their potential. It makes sense. Employees are apt to be more motivated and, therefore, more productive in a pleasant work environment where praise, encouragement, and support exists. By developing an employee recognition award program in your clinic, you will help create a work environment that is conductive to maximizing employee performance.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
