Managing Information Technology in Academic Medical Centers: A "Multicultural" Experience.
Friedman, Charles P.; Corn, Milton; Krumrey, Arthur; Perry, David R.; Stevens, Ronald H.
Academic Medicine, v73 n9 p975-79 Sep 1998
Examines how beliefs and concerns of academic medicine's diverse professional cultures affect management of information technology. Two scenarios, one dealing with standardization of desktop personal computers and the other with publication of syllabi on an institutional intranet, form the basis for an exercise in which four prototypical members of a hypothetical medical center community offer perspectives on each scenario.
