Business process analysis. Part 2.

Abstract

We are addressing in this three part series, the challenge of making lasting, logical and linked improvements in your organization, aided by fresh, comprehensive and almost certainly unique, new view(s) of your organizational system. Preparing your organization for this type of needed "reinvention" of the organizational system can be better assured if some, preferably all, of the conditions listed in Figure 1 are present. These were introduced and discussed in last month's article. The last item in Figure 1 refers to a "Business Process Map" of the organization. Chances are that you have never encountered this term and only have a vague idea of what is meant by it. Explaining the basis of this evaluative approach is the purpose for this article. Next month, we will show ho useful this insight can be in many strategic decision areas of your business.

How can we increase translation of research into practice? Types of evidence needed.

This review summarizes key factors that have interfered with translation of research to practice and what public health researchers can do to hasten such transfer, focusing on characteristics of interventions, target settings, and research designs. The need to address context and to utilize research, review, and reporting practices that address external validity issues-such as designs that focus on replication, and practical clinical and behavioral trials-are emphasized. Although there has been increased emphasis on social-ecological interventions that go beyond the individual level, interventions often address each component as if it were an independent intervention. Greater attention is needed to connectedness across program levels and components. Finally, examples are provided of evaluation models and current programs that can help accelerate translation of research to practice and policy.
