Among the functions of management, motivation occupies one of the most important places. The term "motivation" derives from the Latin word movere, meaning "to strive towards a goal" or "to move". In modern definitions, motivation is also linked to these notions. It is a driving force that provides an incentive and prompts action. For any medical worker, it is important to consider motivation not in general terms but from the perspective of management, directly connected to the working environment and employees. The motivation function supports communication between employees and employers and helps establish healthy business relationships.
