Abstract:
Objective:This article studies the abilities and quality that medical technical managers should possess and provides a reference for promoting the professional training and development of medical technical managers.Methods:The data were obtained through semi-structured interviews and literature collection. The interview subjects were 20 scientific researchers with transformation projects and 10 management staffs with technical manager certificates in medical colleges. The documents are 6 articles related to ″technical manager capabilities″ collected on open academic platforms. Grounded theory was used to code and analyze above data.Results:After three-level coding and combining with the iceberg competency model, the knowledge, skills, self-awareness, traits and motivation of medical technology managers were sorted out, totalling 5 core categories, 10 main categories, and 50 initial categories, to construct a competency model for medical technology managers.Conclusions:Based on the complex knowledge structure and high occupational requirements of medical technology managers, policy insights such as systematic knowledge training, raising skill requirements in practice, and enriching assessment standards and communication channels are proposed.
