title: Helping people change, Part 2: The magic of motivation.
abstract: The consensus of the data and the interviewed doctors was that the five most profound motivators of people in the workplace today include the following: achievement of well-done work; personal pride and satisfaction in being a part of quality treatment and excellent care of patients; continuing education; respect, responsibility, and appreciation; and equitable compensation. "Motivation is the most critical factor in the productivity of my practice," said Dr. Stelly. "Motivation is the key. If everyone is on the same page and the doctor and key team members can continue to motivate and encourage others, then the sky is the limit. The key is to keep everyone goal oriented, unified, and excited about the possibilities."
