User Adoption Research: Details from my PhD Research

CRM Vendor Choice is a Commitment

My doctoral dissertation was focused on the adoption theories of Diffusion of Innovations, Change Management, and Adult Learner. 

Since a CRM implementation takes a significant amount of time and money to implement, beginning from the strategic decision to use one and the translation of the current process approach to the technology automation, nonprofit organizations must be diligent in their CRM choice and usage.  The decision is likely to have a longstanding effect on the operations of the organization; the actual deployment of the technology, training on the technology, and change management initiatives to ensure adoption of the technology to ensure the results required will take several years.  “Due to the extensive resources that go into a CRM implementation, it is likely an organization’s CRM system will be around for at least five years” (Grattan, 2012, p. 21).
