INNOVATION IMPLEMENTATION: THE ROLE OF TECHNOLOGY DIFFUSION AGENCIES

A great deal of'innovation failure' can be attributed to ineffective implementation, rather than failure of the innovation itself. Ex-ternal agencies such as technology diffusion agencies (TDAs) have been created to assist organisations to implement innovation successfully, but there has b...
