  • Title: Diffusion of innovation: the leaders' role in creating the organizational context for evidence-based practice.
    Author: Crow G.
    Journal: Nurs Adm Q; 2006; 30(3):236-42. PubMed ID: 16878009.
    Abstract:
    Successfully leading change represents one of the most, if not the most, challenging aspects of a leader's role. The traditional top-down command and control structures and processes present in healthcare institutions and nursing are the enemies of effective change. Transitioning from traditional structures to structures that are more of a partnership between point-of-service staff and administrators is the foundation for creating an evidence-based practice culture.
