Abstract
Background & Purpose: Self-empowerment refers to the processes that employees themselves decide to go through, and according to the skills, knowledge, and abilities that a person acquires in the direction of self-empowerment, it results in the formation of a sense of competence, meaning, the right to choose, influence, etc. Accordingly, this article tries to present a model of self-empowerment of healthcare workers and the health sector. Methodology: This research was done using the qualitative method of the grounded theory and using the interview tool. The target population of the research was experts, professors and university informants in the field of management, as well as managers of the two studied hospitals of "Irfan Saadat Abad" and "Irfan Niayesh", among them 40 people using the method of "theoretical sampling" (20 hospital managers and 20 scientific and academic experts and experts) were chosen and the collection of information continued until saturation and theoretical adequacy. Findings: "Causal factors" (internal and external organizational factors), "contextual factors" (environment including organizational, social, and cultural factors) and "intervening factors" (organizational requirements) are effective in the emergence of self-empowerment in hospital centers. Thus, in the model that is presented for the purpose of self-empowerment of health workers, treatment and health field, "macro management strategies" should be used in order to change the management paradigm, including transformation in the structure, strengthening of organizational culture, etc. applied to witness "organizational and extra-organizational" consequences and achievements including personal growth and excellence (employees), transformation of administrative system, satisfaction of managers, employees, and visitors to hospital centers. Conclusion: Since self-empowerment is a person's belief about the ability and power necessary to perform duties if this belief is strengthened, and in the meantime, hospital centers are also using modern practices and efforts to support employees and rule justice and lawfulness in the organization, which lays the groundwork. The establishment of meritocracy and rule over the relationship can provide the necessary incentives for self-empowerment in employees.
