This thesis addresses the subject of internal communication between the leadership and the employees. Communication is a common process and according to Tufvesson (2008), the primary focus has been on the role and responsibility of the leadership. This can mean that, from the employee's point of view, it is not clear what the organization expects, and this lack of clarity dimishes the ability of the employees to live up to those expectations (ibid). Tufvesson (2008) believes that today's organizations need common interpretations, which requires a well thought out communication strategy between leadership and employees. Because communication represents an organization's functionality, the report?s authors were interested in studying the employees? representatives.

Cloud computing is a new buzzword within the IT-industry, and introduces a whole new way of working with IT. The technique delivers web based services, which results in that the user no longer needs to install an application locally on a computer. Since the application no longer needs to run on a local entity, but in a datacenter located on a service provider, the users no longer need any specific hardware more than a computer with an internet connection. Cloud computing also offers IT-infrastructure and development environments as services, these three service types is better known as cloud services. Through the usage of different types of cloud services, the need for maintenance and hardware is significantly reduced.

Livsstilfaktorer som inaktivitet, felaktiga kostvanor och rökning bidrar till utvecklandet av fetma, blodfettsrubbningar, typ 2 diabetes och högt blodtryck, och ökar risken för insjuknande i hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar. Syftet med denna studie var att utvärdera om en kombinerad tränings och kostintervention under 3 månader, följt av regelbunden uppföljning under ett år påverkar motionsvanor, hälsoupplevelse och riskfaktorer hos personer i riskgrupper. 151 medelålders kvinnor och män med riskfaktorer för hjärt- och kärlsjukdom randomiserades till en interventionsgrupp ( n =75 ) och kontrollgrupp ( n = 76 ) och genomgick undersökning vid baslinjen, efter 3 och efter 12 månader. 123 personer fullföljde studien. Efter 12 månader sågs signifikanta förbättringar inom interventionsgruppen av vikt, BMI, midjemått, höftmått, midjehöftkvot, triglycerider, HbA1c, syreupptagningsförmåga, systoliskt och diastoliskt blodtryck till skillnad från inom kontrollgruppen.
