The most rapid implementation amongst the organisations studied is that of HT’s adoption of the BSC. HT decided to adopt a scorecard following the recommendations of a management-consulting firm in May 2005, and the scorecard was available to the board of HT later that year, approximately six months later. A number of factors contributed to this rapid implementation: HT was already using traffic light reporting of its vital targets, which could be used as a basis for the scorecard. Due to being a relatively late adopter, HT and their advisors, were able to learn from similar hospitals that had developed their own scorecards.
3. Implications for Academics We believe that this study contributes to the field of managerial innovations in a number of ways that will provide additional understanding for other academics and also provide the basis for further studies. ■ We believe that this study is the first empirical study of the adoption rationales posited by Sturdy (2004). The findings of this study support his rationales and suggest that they are robust and could form the basis of future studies in this domain. ■ We also believe that this is the first study that seeks to link the stages of adoption of managerial innovation, that is, it seeks to determine the influence of one stage in the process with subsequent stages.
