WORKING PAPER SERIES (2023-4) - Put down the pen; pick up the tablet

One of the goals within the AGILE project was to characterize a diverse collection of lentils to determine the genetics underlying the differences in their ability to grow well in different parts of the world. [...] 2.1 The role of the behavioural intentions and facilitating conditions in tech adoption The barriers to innovation implementation have been extensively studied in the past and several models have been developed to help understand the gap between introducing an innovation and 5 bringing said innovation into practice. [...] For this study, we used the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) as the theoretical framework to build the survey questions and analyze the results. [...] 2.3 Virtual collaborative environment and the role of leadership and archetypes Many researchers in the past have combined the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) framework and Rogers’ five attributes of innovation to evaluate technology implementation success in organizations. [...] One of the major obstacles to the implementation of innovation in the public research space is the ambiguity surrounding “authority” and “hierarchy” within and between organizations.
