Applying a political model to program development.

Abstract

Politics encompasses personal behaviors that dominate much of day-to-day decision-making in organizations. Conflict arises when various groups with different goals, interests, values and perceptions attempt to influence policy or decision making to meet their own interests, needs, goals or values. In this paper, Baldridge's political model is used to analyze the conflict experienced in development of a hospital-based discharge planning program.
