Svenskt abstract: Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka och belysa vad enhetschefer på en socialförvaltning efterfrågar för kompetensutveckling avseende sin personal, samt deras förhållningssätt gentemot kompetensutvecklingars innehåll och utförare. Jag vill med denna uppsats belysa enhetschefernas attityder till, och kunskap om, olika typer av kompetensutveckling för sin personal. Detta görs med hjälp av intervjuer med enhetschefer och förklaras utifrån organisationsteori med inriktning på ett instrumentellt perspektiv. Resultat i denna uppsats visar att det enhetscheferna efterfrågar är beroende av hur organisationsstrukturen är utformad, vilken kompetens som finns idag och vilken kompetens som fattas i organisationen.

The year of 2011 became the first when the wind power produced more energy than an average nuclear reactor. Now that wind power is in an expansive phase, the land issue will be of great interest. Land with good wind resources will be of interest to wind energy developers. The problems that this essay is based on are; how can landowners altering the economic conditions at a wind power establishment? What opportunities and obstacles exist for landowners who choose to set up wind power on their land? The purpose of this essay is to highlight the economic conditions that exist for landowners for the establishment of wind farms, with regard to compensation for the leasing and return on invested capital.

Denna uppsats är en kvalitativ intervjustudie där fyra anhöriga till kroniskt sjuka per-soner har intervjuats om sina erfarenheter av växelvård. Studiens syfte har varit att studera de anhörigas erfarenheter av växelvårdsinsatsen, vilken betydelse växelvård har haft för de anhöriga och hur de upplevt samspelet med omvårdnadspersonalen. Den teoretiska utgångspunkten handlar om kommunikationen mellan anhöriga och personal och hur synen på de anhörigas roll som vårdare av sina kroniskt sjuka närstående påverkar syftet med växelvårdsinsatsen. Resultaten pekar på att anhöriga har både positiva och negativa upplevelser av växelvården. Det odelat positiva är vila och avkoppling och det mest negativa är dåligt fungerande kommunikation mellan personal och anhöriga.

Today there is a shortage of skilled IT-technicians in Sweden. It is approximated that Swedish companies can hire 31 000 IT-technicians in 2015 and the need seems to increase in the coming years.

Consultancy as a profession has always been a debated topic and has constantly been surrounded with a kind of secrecy. People have a hard time defining what consultants actually do and how they do it. It seems that they are simply waving their magic wands, performing wonders. We have therefore decided that the purpose of this study is to unveil the secrecy around the profession. By conducting interviews and analysing literature we have examined recruitment processes in three different consulting industries and their wanted personal characteristics.

This report is focused on a research to find out if the Customer Relation Management (CRM) of Quicknet AB works and if their customers are satisfied with it. During this investigation I tried to see if the customers had a need for taking the CRM and use a tool called Social CRM. The report will conclude if the clients of Quicknet think that there is something that can be done in the relation between both parts and how it can be improved. At the same time I am going to build an application which relates to the problems of this report.To solve the problem I am going to do a survey which will include the CRM and also try to find out if the customers of Quicknet share the same thoughts about having a Social Customer Relation Management. Also if this survey shows what the customers think about the CRM, it could improve the relation between Quicknet and themselves. The result from the survey showed two things.

 Gruppen personer med psykiska funktionshinder har varit och är än idag en diskriminerad grupp i samhället. Det är den grupp av funktionshindrade som har det sämst ställt, både ekonomiskt och hur de blir bemötta av allmänheten. För att stärka den enskilda brukarens ställning i samhället och för att kunna leva ett självständigt så krävs adekvata sociala färdigheter för att kunna interagera med omgivningen. Social färdighetsträning är en av många arbetsmetoder som har som syfte att stärka individens sociala kompetens och som är den här studiens fokus. Den här studien använder sig av en kvalitativ metod för att genom intervjuer med både personal och brukare studera deras upplevelser och erfarenheter av arbetsmetoden social färdighetsträning. Syftet med studien är således att frambringa kunskap om och förståelse av social färdighetsträning. Resultatet visar på positiva upplevelser och erfarenheter av arbetsmetoden från både brukare och personal.

Sycamore maple (Acer pseudoplatanus L.) is a common broadleaved species throughout Europe, however often of minor interest to the forest sector. There is currently a lack of research on sycamore maple, and some of its characteristics have throughout history contributed to a negative reputation in both literature and the forest society. Since broadleaved species in general are of great importance to the forest sector in Europe and presumably of enhanced significance in the future, deepened research is needed and particularly Swedish. With a desire to hopefully increase the interest for sycamore maple, was the objective of the study to examine the current status of the sycamore stands in southern Sweden. The study was carried out both as a survey with inventory field work and as a literature study. Parts of the latter mentioned is also presented in the introduction. The study shows that the majority of the sycamore stands in Sweden are growing well, producing fairly high qualities and volumes.

Examensarbetet handlar om hur en skola varit framgångsrika med att höja kvaliteten bland rastvaktspersonalen och på så sätt minskat konflikterna på rasterna. Studiens syfte är att studera om konflikterna under rasterna och resten av skoldagen kan minska om man har samma personal som rastvakter och konfliktmedlare alltid. Varför beslutade sig skolan för att ändra sina rutiner under rasterna? Hur har denna skola gått tillväga för att höja kvalitén bland rastvakterna? Vad tycker personal och elever på skolan? Känner eleverna att de får med hjälp nu jämfört med innan till att lösa konflikter som uppstått under rasterna? Detta var några av alla de frågor som dök upp när jag fick höra talas om skolan och deras nya system. Genom intervjuer med rektor, personal och kamratstödjare på skolan samt 85 stycken enkätundersökningar med elever i år 2,4 och 6 har jag sammanställt ett material som övergripande visar att skolan använder sig av en bra metod under rasterna samt för konflikthantering och konfliktlösning efter rasterna. Studien är förlagd en liten byskola i Skåne som jag av en händelse fick nys om.

AbstractThis essay contains a comparison between principals and supervisors within the Health-care and is focused on their view regarding their own leadership. It contains a comparison between their respective models for leadership and how to evolve as a leader within these two organizations.The study is carried out as in dept interviews with four principals and four supervisors.The results show that the principals have a sufficient education and a broad network, but they need the opportunity to a personal development within their leadership. On the other hand, within the Health-care, the supervisors stand on a good base of education where focus lies on the personal development within the leadership. However, they need more opportunities to build up their networks.The conclusion that can be drawn is that these two organisations would gain on learning from each other, in order to establish as good conditions as possible to improve the leaderships within their own organization..

The kitchen is one of the most important rooms in our homes. It is a place for social engagements, meetings between people and activity. How the kitchen looks today is a concept sprung from the Swedish kitchen standard of 1952. Eventhou this standard no longer exists it is a model of how kitchens are designed today. The kitchens most often sold today come from one of four major kitchen manufacturers in Sweden.My thesis investiges an alternative kitchen concept.
