Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Implementation as a Process of Change: A Framework and Empirical Study
At least part of this disagreement results from the differences in the way these two, as well as other, authors define the implementation problem. Each is reflecting on his own experience in a limited number of cases. What is more, they are dealing only with cases which ended in failure. Thus, each author is considering only a limited part of the spectrum of implementation situations. This approach, based on a limited number of cases. Can only provide fragmented, anecdotal results. Further. By failing to consider successful implementation efforts as well as failures, we have no basis for comparison from which we could develop an understanding of the results. Thus, the normative approach to imple mentation research can never provide us with the comprehensive guidelines needed to manage ms/mis implementation efforts in a variety of settings.
