Syftet med undersökningen har varit att ta reda på vad rektorsyrket innebär både vad det gäller arbetsuppgifter och arbetsbelastning såväl som de förväntningar som finns på en mellanchef. För att uppnå mitt syfte har jag utfört intervjuer med gymnasierektorer för att på så sätt kunna få en bild av uppdraget samt få en bild av hur de upplever arbetsbelastningen.Resultatet av min undersökning visar, liksom tidigare forskning inom detta område, att rektorsrollen är komplex och som mellanchef finns stora förväntningar från olika håll, både uppifrån och nedifrån. Stora kunskaper krävs inom en rad olika områden såsom pedagogik, ledarskap, budgetarbete samt organisations- och utvecklingsarbete etc. Rektors ansvarområde är stort och består av flera bitar; verksamhetsansvar, elevansvar och personalansvar är exempel på dessa.De rektorer som ingår i undersökningen tycker alla att rektorskapet ett intressant och roligt yrke med stort ansvar som kräver mod och stor flexibilitet. Av undersökningen framgår att respondenterna upplever arbetsbelastningen som för hög och att de inte hinner med det de själva har som mål, nämligen att vara pedagogiska ledare i en lärande organisation..

The response to many on-going or emerging conflicts since the beginning of the 21st century has been different forms of multinational complex peace operations. Civil-military relations are a commonly studied field that traditionally has its focus on nations. This study intends, in the context of organisations, to test the correlation between a civil-military approach and outcome in complex peace operations. A hypothesis has been deduced from researcher Robert Egnell?s theory on complex peace operations, that states that: UN peace operations with an integrated civil-military approach are more successful in achieving their goals than peace operations with a divided approach.

The aim of this study is to examine how the induction period for newly employed upper secondary school teachers is implemented in practice, in relation to the Swedish Education Act and the National Agency for Education?s general guidelines. Although this induction period has been legally mandated since 2010, both previous research and current statistics indicate significant shortcomings or wide variation in its practical execution. The study is based on a qualitative interview study involving 13 school leaders. The interview responses were analyzed using three complementary theoretical frameworks: Lipsky?s theory of street-level bureaucracy, Meyer and Rowan?s concept of decoupling, and Schein?s model of organizational culture.

Studiens syfte är att få kunskap om hur den inre organisatoriska kontexten kan påverka förstalinjechefers ledarskapsbeteende gentemot underställda och hur den inre kontexten kan påverka ledarskapseffektiviteten.Studien har genomförts med en kvalitativ forskningsansats där tre stycken avdelningschefer samt en HR-chef i en organisation har intervjuats.Studien fokuserar på hur kontexten påverkar, begränsar, förstärker eller styr en organisations avdelningschefer till att använda en viss form av ledarstil eller beteende. De ledarstilar vi har utgått från är ett uppgiftsorienterat- samt relationsorienterat ledarskap. I studien har vi funnit att den inre kontextens variabler påverkar både ett uppgiftsorienterat- och ett relationsorienterat ledarskapsbeteende hos avdelningschefer. Vi har kunnat urskilja hur variabler i den inre organisatoriska kontexten påverkar avdelningschefers ledarskapsbeteende är individuellt. I studien har vi använt engagemang samt sjukskrivningsstatistik hos de underställda som mått på ledarskapseffektivitet.

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. There are two sides to every penny, positive and negative aspects of networking.Concerning the negative approach to networking, there is relatively little theory present. The theory is regarded an emerging theory.

Based on last years events that have taken place, events on the school Lundbergs and the police values of work, has the meaning of having a set of values been questioned. This study aimed to investigate and answer the fundamental values based on the common value basis for the government employees within an organization and how it perceived by employees. The new institutional theory was the framework for this qualitative study conducted with semi-structured interviews. Respondents were employees within the organization. Ethnographic qualitative methodology was the basis for our methodology and we used a thematic model of theme interpretation, communication and knowledge in our analysis.

This qualitative study investigates the conditions on the labour market for disabled people by examining which factors and processes contribute to disabled peoples inclusion to, or exclusion from the open labour market. Stigmatisation is also used as an analytical tool to better understand the exclusion of disabled people from the open labour market. The material to this study is drawn from qualitative interviews with the employees of the Swedish Employment Agency which specialises in supporting disabled people to find employment.  In conclusion, disabled people face several barriers which makes them more susceptible to become excluded from the open labour market. Such excluding barriers include a demand for high efficiency and productivity from employers, bigger cooperation?s and public organisations unwillingness to employ disabled people and prejudices from employers, especially against people with psychiatric disabilities. The employees of the Swedish Employment Agency suggest that they would be able to work more efficiently to help disabled people find employment if they had to do less administrative work, and would be able to work with fewer clients per employee.

Syftet med min undersökning var att belysa förutsättningen för studie- och yrkesvägledaren att utföra sitt uppdrag beroende på rektors strategier att implementera studie- och yrkesvägledning i hela organisationen. Detta ämnade jag belysa på en kommunal gymnasieskola ur ett ledarskaps och organisationsperspektiv. De två frågeställningarna var på vilket sätt påverkas studie- ochyrkesvägledarens förutsättningar att utföra sitt uppdrag beroende av hur implementeringen av att studie- och yrkesorienteringen skett i organisationen samt på vilket sätt ledarskapet och organisationen av studie- och yrkesvägledningen kan underlätta för studie- och yrkesvägledarenatt utföra sitt uppdrag i organisationen. Jag utförde undersökningen med hjälp av kvalitativa semistrukturerade forskningsintervjuer. I undersökningen intervjuades tre rektorer och tre studie- och yrkesvägledare.

In Sweden a person is either unlimited or limited liable to tax. It is important to define this status since the consequence of being unlimited liable to tax according to chapter 3 § 8 Swedish income tax law (1999:1229) is imposed tax on every revenue from Sweden and overseas. When deciding the fiscal status Sweden uses the principle of domicile which makes the home of the taxable person important.Despite domilication in another country a person can be considered to have such bonds to Sweden that they still should be unlimited liable to tax here. During the development of the Swedish communal tax law (1928:370) the term essential linkage was introduced. There are numerous factors which can affect this assessment but in case-law some factors have been considered more important than others.

Large areas have been ditched in Sweden during the past 100 years to improve the forest production. Ditching and also maintenance of old ditches are operations having mainly negative effects on water quality, flora and fauna and changing characteristics of soil. The purpose of this study was to suggest a method for inventory of the need for ditching maintenance in old forest ditches that takes biodiversity, water protection and forest production into consideration. Inventory methods from five Swedish and Finnish forest companies, agencies and organisations were compared. Their employees were interviewed about their handling with ditches, forest production and nature conservation.

Det är en realitet att det på senare tid förekommit företagsskandaler, vilka har haft en tillitsskadlig effekt på relationerna mellan företag och dess intressenter. En följdeffekt av detta är att Corporate Governance förvandlats från ett akademiskt specialområde till en vedertagen kärnfråga i de flesta företag. Mot denna bakgrund syftar uppsatsen till att undersöka hur investerarens tillit gentemot företagsledningen tar sig uttryck utifrån aspekten närhet. Vi avgränsade mot att enkom studera skandinaviska investerare som använder fonder och riskkapital som investeringsmedel. Uppsatsens referensram baserades på teorin om Corporate Governance samt olika tillitsteorier på organisations- och individnivå, vilka också låg till grund för vår egen utarbetade analysmodell.
