Changing “How We Do Things Around Here”: Organisational Culture as Both Influence and Outcome of Implementation

Why do technically sound, evidence‑based interventions so often struggle to embed in health care? This webinar will examine organisational culture as a critical—yet often under‑considered—factor in implementation.

Key Takeaways

After watching this webinar, you will be able to:

  • Describe the role organisational culture plays in influencing implementation success.
  • Recognise how implementation initiatives can influence and change organisational culture.
  • Identify practical approaches for working with organisational culture when planning and delivering implementation projects.
  • Apply insights from real-world healthcare examples to support implementation in your own setting.

Who is this for?

This webinar is for researchers, clinicians, implementation practitioners, health service managers, policy makers, and anyone interested in implementing evidence into practice. It is particularly relevant for those seeking to understand how organisational culture influences implementation and how implementation activities can shape culture over time.
