Continuing professional development (CPD) is now viewed as an integral part of professional practice and yet there is little evidence that traditional approaches to post-graduate learning result in changes to the way clinicians practise.

Abstract:
About 50-70 % of all change initiatives fail and one reason for this is soft barriers, which mainly depend on people. These barriers are challenging to manage because individuals react to change in different ways. Due to these difficulties, companies look for help from consultants, who are perceived to have wide knowledge about change. Hence, the authors have studied the change process and the soft barriers from an external change agent perspective by interviewing nine experienced consultants. The results indicate that no phase in the change process is prominently more problematic than another

In recent years, institutional theorists have been increasingly interested in institutional change, seeking to understand the contextual factors and agents responsible for alterations to existing institutional arrangements. Institutional theory’s historical focus on isomorphism has made it challenging to account for actors’ motivations to pursue change projects.

Recently, scholars have begun to recognize that competition among multiple logics may not quickly produce a ‘winning logic’;
