Transformation Management in the Program of development and Innovation in Medical Science Education: A Survey of Experts' Viewpoints

The program of development and innovation in medical education with realistic understanding of the current situation of health education, has developed clever strategies for development of health education system. This research has been done to investigate the management status of this program. Thiscross-sectional study was descriptive-analytic.The population were the country's37 experts. The sampling was purposeful and tool was a researcher-made questionnaire Includes 23 items and 7 components in Likert scale. The validity was confirmed by the experts. The reliability confirmed by Alpha coefficient was rated 0.81. Data analysis done by descriptive statistics, independent t-test and variance analysis. In terms of experts, the most goal of the program was"create and develop a new and innovative solution"(mean3.86 ± 0.91),The implementation method was more the "continuous development" (3.45 ± 1.01), The most progressive actors were "acting for better regulation of activities" (3.36 ± 0.89, Developmental strategies were more "participatory" (3/56 ± 1/4), Life cycle was more in the "low resistance to change" stage (3.64 ± 0.97), The causes of resistance were more "individual" (3.94 ± 0.74) And transformational levels, the most was "knowledge change" (3.91 ± 0.76).Average scores based on work record, degree, academic rank,age and place of service There was no significant difference,but gender was significant. Further focus on creating and developing innovative solution, a continuous implementation method, better regulation of activities, a participatory change strategy and the entry into a low level of resistance, indicate the availability of opportunities for success;Now, the full success of the program requires specialized mechanisms, including great flexibility, redevelopment of structures, and respect for change and innovation.
