[Meanings attributed to management as an explanation for clinician managers' attitudes and professional identity].

CONCLUSIONS: This study sheds light on why clinician managers develop adverse attitudes to managing and why they define themselves as clinicians rather than as managers. The explanation lies in the construction of the meanings they assign to managing as the basis of their attitudes to this role and professional identity. These findings have some practical implications for healthcare management. PMID: 25234273 [PubMed - in process]
