Source: Implementing Institutional Change

This article discusses a case study of palliative sedation. This is not euthanasia, many hospitals apparently refuse to administer this outside the ICU. This was written by several doctors & professors. "In this paper, we will review the processes we found to be successful in hopes that they will also be efficacious for others wishing to produce similar change within their institutions."
There are three sections: 1. the results of their personal study of theoretical foundations in organizational development and change management. 2. their personal implementation strategies. 3. the role of interpersonal interactions. I chose this article because, like the book Institutional Change and Globalization, it is open and allows for further discussion. They don't present the preface that they are right and everyone else is wrong. Also, they have three case studies and successful results of their efforts. So they don't need to flaunt anything.
