Empowerment model of hospital managers with productivity approach

The aim of this study was to design a model for empowering hospital managers with a productivity approach. The statistical population of the study includes experts (with at least 10 years of management experience in Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences and affiliated hospitals) and university professors. The statistical sample was selected by a purposeful judgment method of 14 people. Data collection tools included library studies and semi-structured interviews with experts. The validity of the interview questions was confirmed by the content method and its reliability was confirmed by the retest method (0.87). The empowerment model of hospital managers was drawn with a productivity approach, and at the end, a theory based on 18 theorems was created. Based on the calculated model, causal conditions (including "organizational foresight", "agile organizational structure", "transformational leadership", and "organizational opportunity for empowerment"), central category (empowerment of hospital managers), contexts (including "access to resources") "Empowerment", "Establishing an active motivational system", "Justice-oriented in the organization", and "Modeling the role for managers"), contextual factors (including "internal factor of empowering managers" and "external factor of empowering managers"), strategies (including "holding courses "Empowering managers", "Establishing a succession system", "Delegating and delegating responsibilities", and "Job value creation for managers"), and the consequences (including "individual productivity of managers" and "organizational productivity of managers") are explained in a paradigm model. Finally, the relationships between them were drawn in the selected model. Finally, suggestions based on strategies for implementing the model of empowering managers with a productivity approach were presented.
