Implementing role-changing versus time-changing innovations in health care: differences in helpfulness of staff improvement teams, management, and network for learning.
This paper examined the hypothesis that the degree to which access to groups that can alter organizational learning depends on innovation type. Team representativeness and network membership were positively associated with implementing role-changing practices; while senior management engagement was positively associated with implementing time-changing practices. The authors concluded that these findings advance implementation science by explaining mixed results across past studies, that the nature of change for workers alters potential facilitators' effects on implementation.
