Hi Jake, This is a very good question, thank you!
There is a lot of research around applications that failed. Here is an excerpt from the synthesis of literature that my research team did: Case Study: Numerous case studies report (e.g. Reeve and Peerbhoy, 2007) that the outstanding performance of the operations, resulting out of an OL-aligned approach, failed to be sustained because of an unbridged gap between policy and operations or, from a hierarchical point of view, between shareholders and the rest of the organization.

If so, do you know some of the factors that contributed to the failure? We hear about the successes, like Semco and AES, but rarely about the failures. I'd like to understand better what the pitfalls are and also what the success rate is. Thanks!
