Abstract

The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, to consider the nature of instrumental strategies for acculturation and of variable mediation as an integral feature of their implementation. Second, to offer an illustrative empirical account of the mediation of an an acculturation effort. Findings will be reported from comparative research on English public service leaders’ perceptions about the degree to which they are ‘change agents’ proactively working to implement government-driven reform, and possibly also independent change agendas. Their responses will be explored to external leadership development provision designed, in part, to build their capacity as change agents.
