Theory identified by one of your group members in the Readiness for Change
discussion board assignment. In this section, discuss how the chosen change
theory informed your project plan. In your description, incorporate aspects of
your Logic Model/FOCUS PDCA assignment.
Organizational Readiness for Change/Likeliness to Adopt Innovation. How
likely is your organization ready to adopt your proposed
project/deliverable/innovation? Using Lewins Force Field Analysis or Dearing
and Kreuters Push-Pull Infrastructure Model, discuss the factors that inform
your prediction of your organizations likeliness to adopt the change?
Recommendations. Provide a summary of the Practice Experience Group's
recommendations for next steps to support the agency's ability to adopt
the intervention/project/deliverable developed. Remember, the goal is to

tone of blame and shame. Recall your readings on "just culture."
