The authors of this article maintain that leadership forms one of the main factors for organizational adoption of successful innovation. But researchers have yet to delve into the subject of leadership elements impacting adoption stages (namely, initiation, implementation, and ‘routinization’). This research involved authors formulating and empirically testing a model based on transformational leadership elements as well as diffusion of innovation model phases, utilizing PLS technique and information from as many as 154 companies, for studying the implementation of novel technology, namely MCC (mobile cloud computing). Factors like corporate vision, supportive leaders, intellectual stimulation, and personal acknowledgment are important when it comes to implementation intent.
