"One of the greatest pains to human nature is the pain of a new idea. It.... makes you think that after all, your favorite notions may be wrong, your firmest beliefs ill-founded.... Naturally, therefore, common men hate a new idea, and are disposed more or less to ill-treat the original man who brings it."
Walter Bagehot

TBG is excited to announce the Research Team’s latest publishing endeavor. Drs. Haugen and Woodside head up a team that will research, write, design and publish a book about the “Adoption Gap” – the gap that exists between organizations implementing and adopting new healthcare technologies. Thanks to newly-allocated ARRA stimulus funds for nationwide electronic health and medical record implementation, our industry is in the spotlight, and this book will not only explain the gap, but also will represent how TBG can help organizations succeed in adopting an EMR.

The book has initiated a “movement” from the thousands that have read it. Today, the text is used in the curricula of many leading universities to reinforce innovative methods for instructional design and adult learning. The eight-year research effort that ended in the publication of the book provides the foundation for the consulting and advisory services of The Breakaway Group. The book is now achieving international attention as Jossey-Bass Publishers announced two Chinese versions. The versions include both Mandarin and Orthodox printings of the book.
