Sammanfattning ? "Arbetsmotivation: En jämförande studie av arbetsmotivationsfaktorer och preferenser för motivationsstrategier mellan inhyrd och tillsvidareanställd personal"Datum: 2014-06-11Nivå: Kandidatuppsats i företagsekonomi, 15 ECTS,Institution: Akademin för Ekonomi, Samhälle och Teknik EST, Mälardalens HögskolaFörfattare: Gabriel Cakisi Abizer Kapasi Erik Wallén 880804 891201 870615Titel: Arbetsmotivation: En jämförande studie av arbetsmotivationsfaktorer och preferenser för motivationsstrategier mellan inhyrd personal och tillsvidareanställda.Handledare: Kerstin NilssonNyckelord: Arbetsmotivation, tillfälligt anställda, inhyrd personal, motivationsstrategierForskningsfrågor: 1: Finns det skillnader mellan inhyrd personal och tillsvidareanställda i deras värdering av arbetsmotivationsfaktorer och företagets arbetsmotivationsstrategier? Om ja, hur skiljer de sig åt?2: Hur skulle företagets arbetsmotivationsstrategier kunna anpassas efter eventuella likheter eller skillnader?Syfte: Syftet med studien var att jämföra och identifiera skillnader i vad inhyrd och tillsvidareanställd personal upplever som arbetsmotivation inom tre kontors- & administrationsavdelningar samt en IT-avdelning på ett stort svenskt teknikföretag, samt att undersöka företagets motivationsstrategier och hur strategierna skulle kunna anpassas efter eventuella skillnader.Metod: Studien använde sig av en kvantitativ enkät och en kvalitativ intervju. Enkätden delades in i två delar där del A undersökte motivationsfaktorer och del B undersökte motivationsstrategier. Den kvalitativa intervjun var semistrukturerad och undersökte vilka motivationsstrategier företaget använde som sedan låg till grund för enkätdel B.Slutsats: Resultatet visade på att inhyrd och tillsvidareanställd personal skiljer sig i sin värdering av motivationsstrategier och motivationsfaktorer. För arbetsmotivationsfaktorer så var skillnaderna: 1) tillsvidareanställda värderar personlig utveckling högre, 2) inhyrda värderar att arbetsinsatsen leder till goda resultat högre, och 3) tillsvidareanställda värderar en trygg anställning högre.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how the major swedish banks look upon and promote student profitability as well as long-term relationships within the student segment from a CRM point of view. The study incorporates a qualitative course of action with an abductive research approach which has been carried out by conducting personal and telephone interviews with representatives from three out of the four major swedish banks Nordea, Swedbank and Handelsbanken. Our research finds that the banks appear to regard their relationships with students as long-term investments, but that they simultaneously seem to lack distinctive, clear and procreative strategies for securing these relationships. Furthermore, the development of profitability within the student segment is considered an informal process that does not necessarily need to be computed through the use of quantitative estimates. Also, educational variables does not influence the banks as they segment their customer base and the student-centred offerings within the banking industry is to be deemed as being standardized rather than differentiated..

In this study have I examined how treatment of girls with neuropsychological impairments is functioning? I have looked at the theories and methods of treatment on the base of the care program and how it is put into practice. In addition I have interviewed four girls who have undergone the treatment program.To gain perspective on institutional care as a social phenomenon, I have tried to give a brief historical retrospect in which particular care for women are described. I am also affecting certain gender aspects of institutional care. I have also tried to make a brief account of current research on the treatment.The study is a qualitative study in which I am apart from literature studies used participant observation in depth interviews as a method.My results indicate that a well structured treatment with CBT approach can work well to achieve lasting behavioural changes in students..

Among those who graduate from the various schools of Social work in Sweden are a great majority women. At the same time men are sought after in the work field.  But not just to level up the equality between the sexes, but also to fill a gender specific niche to counter up a need for male role models. But a closer look at this need and the types of functions set to cater for it shows that male role models as a concept vary between contexts. In this study we examine the concepts and the practices of male role models in three different settings: a municipal social care center offering young boys male bonding activities; a non-profit organization warding young people from drug abuse and criminal behavior; and last, a long term residential home for young boys between the ages 13 and 19. Our research shows that the concept of the male role model vary between the organizations and less so within.

The purpose of this thesis is to try to understand, with the help of existing theories and empirical findings, the parameters which are of importance in the development of the pricing capability. We have used a qualitative and abductive methodology approach. The empirical findings have been collected via semi-structured interviews which we have conducted via personal and telephone interviews. Seeing pricing as a capability within the company our theoretical framework mainly consists of the resource-based view and an article explaining and given proof how pricing can be seen as a capability. We also describe the most used pricing strategy today within business-to-business companies, the cost plus strategy.

Companies of today are facing a development where it is more significant to focus on existing customers since the approach constitute a more cost reducing way, compared to finding new customers. During the last decades the marketing has therefore moved towards a relationship based marketing. Companies emphasize creating long-term relationships with customers, instead of consider the sale as a non-recurrent phenomenon. To engender customer loyalty has been an essential objective in the creation of long-term relationships.In this essay the authors have chosen to do a study which enlighten how companies in the ready-made apparel business produce added value to their brand and through this generate customer loyalty. Through a case study we analyze how Filippa K, Tiger of Sweden and Gant do to maintain value in their brand, in both a business- and customer perspective.

Syftet med denna undersökning har varit att ge kunskap om hur personal och intagna förhåller sig till, och ser på varandra, på en svensk anstalt med omfattande säkerhets- och kontrollarbete. Distansen mellan personalgruppen och gruppen av intagna har varit en mycket viktig faktor, och de problem som kan uppstå med olika grad av distanstagande har undersökts och analyserats. Undersökningen är av kvalitativ karaktär och deltagande observationer har tillämpats som främsta metod. Två intervjuer med personal i arbetsledande funktion har genomförts för att öka generaliserbarheten samt förståelsen för observerade fenomen. Kommunikationen mellan personal och intagna har utgjort en annan mycket viktig del i studien.

Studien är kvalitativ med en hermeneutisk utgångspunkt och insamlingsmetoden är semistrukturerade intervjuer. Studiens syfte var att belysa hur personal inom barn- och ungdomspsykiatrin uppfattar självskadebeteende och insatser hos barn och ungdomar samt vilka överväganden de gör vid val av insatser. Frågeställningarna var: hur uppfattar personal inom barn- och ungdomspsykiatrin självskadebeteende, hur uppfattar personalen de insatser som barn- och ungdomspsykiatrin erbjuder barn och ungdomar med självskadebeteende och vilka överväganden gör personal inom barn- och ungdomspsykiatrin i val av insatser till barn och ungdomar med självskadebeteende? Resultatet tolkades med hjälp av Moira von Wrights punktuella och relationella perspektiv. Resultatet visade att självskadebeteende är ett beteende med flera orsaker där ångest och relationsproblem är mest framträdande.
