Uppsatsen avser undersöka hur entreprenörer upplever och hanterar det ökade ledarskapskrav som ett växande företag för med sig. För att söka svar på detta har fyra frågeställningar utarbetats: Hur upplevs de ökade administrativa sysslor som följer med attföretaget växer? Minskar entreprenören inom personen på bekostnad av att ledaren/administratören inom densamme växer?Klarar entreprenören av att ta på sig de ledarroller som behöver axlas av ledaren i och med att företaget växer? Hur bör entreprenören möta det växande ledarskapskravet? Genom semistruktureradeintervjuer med fem enskilda entreprenörer verkande inom modebranschen i Göteborgsregionen har unika berättelser samlats in. Det teoretiska ramverket har delats upp i två övergripande block varvid det ena tar upp teorier rörande entreprenören medan det andra innefattar teorier rörande ledarskapskrav och den ledarskapskris som eventuellt kan uppstå. Med hjälp av dessa teorier har empirin analyserats, varvid det har framkommit att det inte finns ett entydigt tillvägagångssätt för hur det ökande ledarskapskravet har att hanteras.

Detta arbete var beställt av Sjöfartshögskolan i Kalmar. Skolan ville ha en enhet som kunde mäta aktiv-, reaktiv- och skenbar effekt, ström, spänning, frekvens och cos? på en generator och som kommunicerade vidare dessa värden till en PLC. Detta för att kunna lastfördela lasten mellan ett antal generatorer i kursen Tillämpad elteknik 15 hp där studenterna bygger en generatorinstallation med tre generatorer. Ett funktionsblock för lastfördelning skulle också programmeras.

There is an uncertainty in the market for grain forcing the meat/milk producers to review alternative feeds to a larger extent, in order to get control over the feed costs. This has led to that the meat/milk producers need to have a good knowledge regarding how the different feeds influences the animals and which technical equipment to use for handling. For those that produce their own feedmix, there is a need to put interest in new crops and their characteristics to be able to get the knowledge of what is required for their own production. It is beneficial to keep an open dialogue with advisors to be updated in new crops and new technology for feeding. When mixing feed at farm level, the legislation is not very clear since it the target group is large scale mixing plants. We have brought up the most important rules and regulations from the EU parliament Council as well as the ones from the Swedish Board of Agriculture (SJV), regarding feed mixing on farm and factory level. We have studied beans and pea at two different moisture levels, in order to evaluate how the moisture level affects the distribution of particles when milling with a plaitmill and a hammermill.

The Telecom industry is facing a paradigm shift, where the industry is converging with Internet technologies and the market is becoming more sophisticated. This results in more demanding customers, and the need for offering more content and services with a focus on usability for the end-users. The operators are starting to loose both their strong position and revenue in the Telecom industry, due to new technology and the fact that other actors are starting to enter the market, offering new content and services. In the end, the operators have two choices, to become bit-pipe providers, and only focusing on network management, or keeping the control over their networks. The latter would mean that they block other actors who are taking parts of their revenue, e.g.

Stora Enso Skog has a long term contract regarding felling rights and silvicultural activities on forest owned by Bergvik Skog. In the autumn 2006, Bergvik Skog proposed a new thinning program, ?Bergvikgallring?. The new program implied an increased focus on extraction of smaller trees compared to the present thinning program, Stora Enso Skog?s ?Kvalitetsgallring?.

Den resa ni ska få följa med på börjar i ett brev till skolans prefekt Henry Stiglund där jag bland annat nämner två upptäckter under våren 2004 som jag blev mer nyfiken på och som jag hade en önskan att få fördjupa mig i. Dels var det en övning vi gjorde under genusdagarna på skolan och dels på sättet jag hittade en nyckel till min roll Trigorin i "Måsen" under workshopen då vi tog in de nya ettorna. Upptäckterna går under rubriken ?att få se världen på ett nytt sätt?. I brevet nämner jag också hur jag hade tänkt att gå till väga för att dokumentera mitt magisterarbete.

Syftet med studien är att undersöka vad representanter för den svenska elitfotbollen har för tankar och åsikter kring IdrottsAB och den för Sverige unika 51-49-spärren. Vi har två övergripande frågeställningar i vår undersökning som lyder: Varför har så få allsvenska klubbar valt att bilda IdrottsAB? Hur skulle ett upphävande av 51?49-spärren kunna påverka Allsvenskan och dess klubbar? De teorier som ligger till grund i vår analys är idrottsprofessorn Tomas Petersons begrepp kommersialisering och professionalisering. Vi har genomfört en kvalitativ studie i form av intervjuer av representanter från de allsvenska klubbarna, Svenska Fotbollsförbundet och Föreningen Svensk Elitfotboll. Större delen av intervjuerna har skett på plats, medan ett fåtal intervjuer skett via telefon.

This thesis is built on a field study that was carried out in two seed-tree stands near by Götbrunna in Uppland, Sweden. The aim was to examine if scarification carried out in spring time could generate a more dense seedling establishment when using natural generation, than scarification carried out in autumn. It was also investigated whether there were differences in mortality the first season between the two plot-types. Plots were established block-wise with 50 blocks (pairs) on each site. The spring scarification was made with a hoe during 22-23 of April.

The problem being examined is the disturbing noise that is created in an open plan office on a company working with a creative process, such as a newspaper or a communications agency. The purpose of this study was to examine the needs for today for a sound absorber in open offices and create and design a design proposal. The aim is also to develop a marketing material the product proposal. The problem has been broken down into the following questions:- How does the user look at the need of a sound absorber in an open offices solution today?- Does an interior designer apply sound absorbers when they furnish the intended environment? - How can a design that meets the needs that exists be achieved and to speak the user?The study is based on three choice of methods a literature review on selected topics that relate to the topic, an interview with an interior designer to explore how an interior designer applies absorbers in open plan office and finally an extensive survey that treats the user's needs and appropriate appearance for the product proposal.The design process has undertaken the following methods, design brief, requirements specification, functional analysis and sketches to produce the final product proposal.

Till följd av globalisering och en växande konkurrens ställs det i dag allt större krav på organisationer. För att möta den hårdnande konkurrensen är det vanligt att företag implementerar olika kvalitetsprogram. Dessa förändringar ses som nödvändiga åtgärder för att kunna bibehålla marknadsandelar och vara konkurrenskraftiga. Genom att införa Lean-verktyg och arbeta med ständiga förbättringar minskar riskerna för att produktionen läggs ned eller flyttas till lågkostnadsländer.Som examensarbete har författarna valt att studera ett av dessa Lean-verktyg som används för ställtidsreducering. Verktyget benämns SMED och står för ?Single Minute Exchange of Die? vilket syftar till att öka maskintillgängligheten genom effektivare verktygsbyte mellan olika produkter.

Botanically diverse pastures are commonly used in New Zealand to reduce the ruminant environmental impact by reducing the methane production from the rumen digestion. In order to evaluate the effects diverse pasture species have on the milk fatty acid profile seventy-two lactating Friesian-Jersey crossbred dairy cows were used in a randomised block design with two replicates of six treatments. Six different pasture mixtures were fed at a daily allowance of approximately 15 kg DM/cow/day. The mixtures were categorised as either a simple or a diverse pasture. The simple mixtures all contained white clover with the addition of either a standard diploid perennial ryegrass (RG), a diploid high sugar ryegrass (HS) or tall fescue (TF).

The decision of the European Commission to block the merger between Volvo and Scania in the late 90?s became the starting point to the debate of the possible discriminating effects of the European merger regulation. Especially since the Commission a few years earlier had approved of the merger between Mercedes-Benz and Kässbohrer on the German bus market, where the conditions for competition had been similar to those at hand in the Swedish case. The issue that was and still is in focus is whether the European merger regulation is more difficult to pass for large companies situated on a smaller domestic market than is the case for their competitors of corresponding size but situated on a larger domestic market.This thesis aims at examining what the judgement of the geographical relevant market means for the application of the Merger act. This is being done from two perspectives.
