Whether organizational change is adaptive or disruptive has been an issue among organization researchers. This paper examines the eect of organizational change on organizational failure and compares the result to previous ®ndings. To increase comparability, we replicated Delacroix and Swaminathan's (1991) format of the California wine industry study using Missouri wine industry data. Event history analysis is used to cover time-varying variables and censoring problems. Following an organizational ecology perspective, our result supports the ®nding that organizational change is not related to organizational failure.
This paper deals with the development of a human resource planning (HRP) model for hospital laboratory personnel. External and organizational factors impacting the demand and supply of clinical laboratory personnel in an urban academic health center are identified by a Delphi process. These factors are structured into a hierarchy for the application of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Computer software, Expert Choice, was used in model hierarchy development and judgmental elicitation process. The model result can be applicable to eliciting the perceptions, insights, and understanding of health-care decision-makers for strategic human resource planning.
