Abstract: Abstract Influenced by external pressures, organizations tend to adopt new IS management standards. This adoption is supported by institutional entrepreneurs who, because of their social position, are more attentive to their environmental global pressure. They are dis-embedded and working to drive adoption and acquire the implementation. Other actors which are embedded and conditioned by the old institutions, resist to this change. This study investigates the actors’ role when faced with such a change by examining the differences in their reactions to it and how they could influence the success or failure of a new IS dispositive adoption in three different types of organizations.
