title: The importance of motivating radiology department employees.
abstract: Motivational theories are viewed as management tools concerned with human resources. The premise of most theories is that human needs give rise to certain behavior. The performance of radiographers and their relationships with others depend upon this internal force. A technologist whose job does not meet his need for acceptance and ego satisfaction is not likely to be productive. Therefore, management must develop an environment that is supportive, caring, and encourages each radiographer to grow.
