Syftet med detta arbete är att försöka ta reda på vilka egenskaper som framtidens ledare kommer att behöva inom den kommunala sektorn, men också om det finns eventuella förutsättningar som måste förändras för framtidens ledare. Tio intervjuer genomfördes med personer på ledande positioner inom fyra kommuner i Mellansverige. Utifrån detta sammanställdes intervjumaterialet, och ur detta framkom tre övergripande huvudområden organisation, egenskaper och framtid som sen utmynnade i ett antal ledord. Mot dessa tolkades teorier i ett försök att koppla de till det framtida ledarskapet. Slutsatsen är att det inte finns bara en teori att förhålla sig till, utan det gäller att kunna hantera kontexten och förutsättningarna, och utifrån den kunna anpassa sig.

My thesis is a combination of theory and practice, where theory is meant to create a context and a background for my interpretation proposal. I wanted to ?access? the ideas that are always in the background of the reasoning which underlies both planning in a larger scale, and the design of a place. I wanted to make a ?work of ideas.? In the process of shaping the proposal, I wanted to be deleted from the site itself.

En 80-talist karaktäriseras bland annat av sitt meningssökande, gruppfokus och sökande efter trygghet i otryggheten. Dessa attribut talar för att dessa individer skulle preferera en decentraliserad organisationsstruktur där de får svar på sina relevansfrågor via stimulerande arbetsuppgifter och arbetsformer. Arbetsformerna får gärna lämna utrymme för ansvar och målstyrningen är kanske den styrning som bäst motiverar en 80-talist. en 80-talist är uppväxt i ett konsumtionssamhälle och uppskattar den monetära belöningen då denna fysiskt och tydligt symboliserar organisationens uppskattning. Det är dock väldigt viktigt att denna kompletteras av icke-monetära belöningar i form av uppskattning, delegerat ansvar samt stimulerande arbetsuppgifter.

Syftet med studien är att reda på hur fritidspedagoger upplever datorspelande på fritidshemmet och deras uppfattningar av hur datorspelande kan bidra till lärande i relation till verksamhetens uppdrag med fokus på en meningsfull fritid. Vår forskningsbakgrund behandlar lärande i datorspel och uppfattningar kring datorspel i skolan och kommer att bearbetas tillsammans med resultatet från vår kvalitativa intervjustudie.Vi utgår ifrån den fenomenologiska livsvärldsteorin där vi studerar uppfattningar och erfarenheter kring fenomenet datorspelande. Vi intervjuar ett antal fritidspedagoger och får ta del av deras erfarenheter och upplevelser av datorspelande.I intervjuerna framgår det att fritidspedagogerna, oavsett egen erfarenhet, är positiva till datorspelande som komplement till andra aktiviteter på fritidshemmet, men att många saknar den kunskapen som krävs för att det ska kunna göras med ett pedagogiskt innehåll. De upplever också att barnen lär sig bland annat språk, samarbete, social kompetens och problemlösning genom datorspelande..

This study is done on behalf of Södra skogsägarna in the autumn of 2012. The main purpose of the study is to get an explanation to why some of the members are passive in their forestry, and how Södra can stimulate them to become more active. To achieve this a questionnaire study was conducted on the members of Södra in the community of Gislaved. The result of the study shows that there are many different factors that influence whether the forest owner is active or not. Examples of those factors are timber prices, the forest owner's objectives and the forest owner's financial situation. The main goal for the forest owners in the survey was to obtain high economic result and to increase the standing timber volume for the next generation.

The project is about making a Re-Design of the Swedish Socialistic Newspaper ?Dagens ETC?. The background to the project is my search for commitment when I work with a specific customer or project and how importantthat commitment are?The project was from the beginning split up to three different phases. The meaning of the first phase where to make a re-design mainly based on a interview with Johan Ehernberg, the chef editor on ETC.The second phase was a design totally made of my own idea and creative view as a Graphic Designer.I had in mind to make the third phase based on the result of the first two phases.During phase one and two I reconsidered and decided to skip the third step and put more effort in to the two first ones.

Bitcoin is a digital currency that is used by people all around the world. The goal of this paper is to give an idea about how much trust there is in bitcoin among its users. This paper has used an online survey aimed at bitcoinusers and a content analysis to collect data about this trust.The conclusions show that there seems to be some trust in bitcoin as a technology and this is based on that the users have a good understanding about how bitcoin works. They also share their knowledge about bitcoin to people around them. The trust between people in the bitcoin network on the contrary doesn?t seem as high because certain technological properties hurt this trust.

Jag har i mitt examensarbete studerat barns syn på stress. Vad de tror orsakar stress, hur man känner sig och om man kan göra någonting åt det. Genom enkätundersökningar i en fyra, en sexa och en åtta har jag fått fram barnens tankar om stress. Jag har också läst mycket intressant litteratur inom området för att fördjupa mina kunskaper och ta del av vad andra personer har kommit fram till angående barn och stress. Litteraturen har jag också användt som grund till den empiriska studien.

This Master?s Thesis work was performed at the Studio Engineer department at Volvo CarsDesign Centre in Gothenburg, Sweden. The assignment has been to create a new idea of an airvent where the news value mainly was focused at functionality but also with great attention onvisual appearance.The work has been totally independent and not been aimed to any specific car model. Theindependency initially made that the visual appearance primary wasn?t limited in any way dueto surrounding components.

The purpose of ?The Lake? was to create an experience with music and visuals working with no budget.A personal purpose was that I wanted to explore new areas in design, like scenography, and combine them with my previous knowledge and skills. My method was to keep my hands busy at all times and use new materials. I also wanted to work with other creators and learn from their methods. Together with a musician I created the music and the concept for the project.

Free2Move AB is developing products for the market within wireless communicationand identification, among those active RFID-tags. The company had an idea aboutproviding one of their active RFID tags with a GPS receiver and transmit positions viaan existing RFID protocol. Desire from the company was also the possibility to logpositions and measure temperature. The finished prototype should also be able to beactivated by movement. The company had proposal about components that were to beused in the project.

Today wireless transmission of data is becoming more and more popular and the need for faster transmission rates is increasing. Since the bandwidth is limited it is important to try to use it to the fullest. CDMA is a technology that allows multiple accesses on the same frequency and time thus making it very bandwidth efficient. The CDMA technology was first introduced in the second generation?s cellular systems but has since then been improved and is reused in today?s 3G systems as Wideband CDMA.

This project is about investigation and improvement of a V-plow for the company Swekip. A V- plow is used for snow removal but this product has been found to have deficiencies in its construction, breaking down and not living up to the desired objectives. This is because the product is ordered from a company in China where they have some problems with understanding the purpose of the plow.Initially the existing plow is investigated, all the shortcomings set out and examined, what is wrong and what needs improvement?When the solutions were done they were evaluated and examined that they actually live up to the desired requirements.This assignment is a pure construction project where the majority is implemented in CAD, where models are developed and FE analyses are carried out. But the project also includes a feasibility study, idea study and hydraulic design.The results are presented in the form of a CAD model and associated drawings that will serve as the manufacturing basis for the new V-plow.
