AbstractPeople and organizations that network with one another have during the past decades, at a larger extent than before, replaced classical hierarchies. These networks have become increasingly important, as the globalisation has amplified the pressure for focused and flexibleorganizations. There is a risk of restraining the inventiveness of the firm and force customers and suppliers into cooperation by a too great commitment and dedication to the network.

Syftet med uppsatsen var att undersöka hur ensamkommande flyktingbarn och personal på ett urval av boenden, upplever de insatser som görs för att underlätta integrering i samhället, med fokus på skola, fritid och språk. Vi använde oss av fyra stycken halvstrukturerade intervjuer, med personal och boenden, fördelade på två olika boenden. Detta för att få en inblick i det aktiva arbetet med integration samt upplevelsen av huruvida det gett något resultat. Vi grundade vår analys på identitetsteorin samt systemteorin. Viktiga resultat var bland annat vikten av att hitta rätt personer när man som ensamkommande flyktingbarn kommer till ett nytt land.

Intentionen med denna uppsats har varit att undersöka och lyfta fram de förändringar, som utifrån informationshanteringen, kan uppstå när mobila enheter implementerats för fältarbetande personal inom skogsnäringen.

Förändringar vi har undersökt är insamling, bearbetning, lagring, överföring, presentation, tillgänglighet, aktualitet och korrekthet. Resultatet av undersökningen visar att de mobila enheterna har medfört förändringar i form av förbättringar för nästan alla de aspekter vi valde att fokusera undersökningen på..
