Abstract:

Digitalisation and the phenomenon of digital transformation is rapidly and fundamentally changing existing businesses and organisations alike (Collin, 2015). Although considered a prime challenge for leaders of complex and changing organisations, research in the combined field of digitalisation and leadership however still remain scarce. As executives are tasked with the leading of digital transformation, this study aims to understand how digitalisation effects top management leadership. To achieve this, the study takes a two-folded approach by (1) outlining six characteristics of digitalisati

Abstract:

The Covid-19 pandemic has not only affected people's health seriously around the world, but it has also forced people to change the way they live their lives abruptly. The pandemic has had a significant impact on how people communicate and interact, and changed our normal working routines to a digital setting. Leadership is more important than ever during a time of crisis, hence, this phenomenon must be investigated further. The pandemic has created new changing realities for organizations and individuals. Considering constant changes in the world, one can argue that leadership also changes wi

Abstract:

Change is a timely issue across organisations, particularly since the start of the economic crisis, and especially within English local government. Yet, this question remains dominated by macro and micro explanatory models which tend to exclude conflict, mess and power in favour of enumerating universalistic steps or leadership factors for successful change. This thesis problematises this literature, drawing on Laclau and Mouffe’s (1985) political discourse theory and its mobilisation by critical management studies of organisational change.

Research into leadership in the higher education environment has traditionally mirrored business related constructs.

Abstract:

The research was aimed at addressing the challenge of evaluating a large scale change intervention in a large organisation and in a complex environment. Finding robust, meaningful yet realistic methodologies from among the array of possible approaches, methods and techniques has proved problematic, for both organisational practitioners and academics alike. The research explored this issue of choice from the perspective of ¿fit for purpose¿ and suggests a multi-faceted approach, using a range of evaluation methods and techniques, which were applied to an ongoing example at the BBC. It was also

Abstract:

Globalisation has made logistics more important than ever in developing countries. If one business function raises their costs on a service, the end customer will usually pay the price in the store. When the end customers cannot afford the end price on a product, they will turn to other alternatives. This thesis examines how process management would affect the local population within the Dominican Republic. By beginning to question why some functions exist the effect will be economically visible in a DuPont according to the theories. Supply chain management seeks to manage the whole processes

Les travaux du courant HRO (High Reliability Organization) et du courant actionniste convergent sur le fait que l'individu constitue une source de fiabilité. Ils divergent néanmoins sur l'importance donnée au respect des règles face aux évènements imprévus. Afin d'analyser les comportements d'adaptation d'individus au sein d'un groupe restreint face à des situations à risques et inattendues sous contrainte de temps, l'attention

Abstract:

Traditionellt inom området för kvalitetsteknik har fokus legat på de så kallat "hårdare delarna" såsom statistisk uppföljning av processer, mätningar och problemlösningsmetoder. Tidigare forskning har identifierat att en av de huvudsakliga orsakerna till att kvalitetsinitiativ inte når framgång är att organisationen misslyckas med att skapa en kultur som stödjer förbättringsarbetet. Trots att kultur identifierats som en nyckel till framgång finns det en kunskapslucka kring hur och om kultur, och då kanske främst kvalitetskultur, kan skapas. Kultur består till stor del av dess värderingar och a

The study is based on a human science perspective in which we are interested in the school as a workplace for adults and work with personnel issues. The aim is to contribute with new knowledge about what conditions an employee considers important to carry out their work, and employees' experiences of working in large personnel groups. We have made a case study in a Swedish local primary school for students in lower ages, with between 60-70 employees. We conducted nine semi- structured interviews with a hand-picked selection of employees from different occupational groups in the school. The stu

A distinction is made between external and internal triggers of transformation, and information is provided on the challenges posed by, among others, the knowledge society, globalisation, and changing market conditions that require companies to become learning organisations staffed by empowered knowledge workers.

Skapandet av en destinations image och varumärke är idag en effektiv positioneringsstrategi. Destinationer lägger fokus på att skapa en attraktiv destination och därmed leverera ett värde till besökaren. Det finns däremot färre empiriska studier om hur samarbetet på en destinationer och hur ett multi-aktörsperspektiv spelar in i att skapa en attraktiv destination och därmed ett starkt varumärke. Det leder studien in på dess forskningsfråga: Hur samarbeten på en destination kan främja destinationsvarumärket? som också kommer besvaras med underfrågor: Hur Destination Management Organisations och

Tidigare studier inom generationsväxlingar menar på att det finns skillnader mellan generationers värderingar och vad de prioriterar. En viktig faktor av det hela är att se till vad Generation Y blir motiverade av och hur HSB Stockholm Förvaltning bör arbeta med hur det ska få denna generation att stanna inom företaget. Studien syftar till att ge en ökad förståelse kring hur den valda fall organisationen, HSB Stockholm Förvaltning framgångsrikt ska hantera den pågående generationsväxlingen med hänsyn till hur de arbetar med incitament och motivation med syfte att medarbetare ska stanna inom o
