Studiens syfte var att undersöka huruvida en arbetstagares bristande identifiering med sin organisation kan predicera dennes intention att lämna sin anställning inom den ideella sektorn. För att kunna ge en nyanserad bild av sambandet mellan minskad organisatorisk identifikation och intentionen att sluta delades variabeln in i två dimensioner: externt konstruerad organisationsbild samt upplevd organisatorisk identifikation. Undersökningsdata bestod av enkätsvar från 65 tjänstemän arbetandes hos en idéburen organisation. Resultatet visade att upplevd organisatorisk identifikation predicerar intentionen att sluta men att inget sådant samband fanns för den externt konstruerade organisationsbilden. Vidare fanns heller inget samband mellan en arbetstagares anställningstid, ålder eller kön och intentionen att sluta.

The analysis consists of two combined analyses, Experiential Landscape Analysis and Gordon Cullen?s Serial Vision, both of which analyse the relationship between a human being and her environment as well as the emotional changes that occur as she moves in it.

Historien visar att en avsaknad av en ledande idé kan få förödande konsekvenser. Det är svårt att jämföra dagens Sverige med de krigförande nationerna under andra världskriget, samt de förödande effekterna som en avsaknad av en strategi medförde räknat i förstörelse, död och lidande. Detta väcker frågan om Sverige har en utvecklad strategi för sitt internationella engagemang i allmänhet, och vid internationella insatser där det militära maktmedlet används i synnerhet. För Försvarsmakten kan det finnas ett mervärde med en övergripande strategi, en så kallad fullständig strategi. Denna strategi skapas av regering och riksdag, och syftar till att koordinera statens resurser inom flera politikområden med målsättningen att nå ett bättre samordnat resultat.
