Säljorganisationer: en enkätundersökning i
villatillverkningsbranschen i Sverige

This master thesis was made to describe how sales organisations are constructed in Sweden within an industry with almost every sales situation as a new task selling, and where almost every selling is over one million Skr. One of these industries is the homebuilding industry with companies that manufacturers prefabricated houses and semi-fixed manufactured homes in Sweden. The pre-studies where made by using the Internet, intervjues and theory studies to construct a conceptual framework. The sales organisation was conceptualized to be able to measure: salesman, sales leader, improved skills, communication, reported information, compensation and company targets. This conceptualisation and operationalisation lead to a survey that captured organisations within the homebuilding industry in Sweden.

En jämförelse har gjorts mellan kultur- och idrottssponsorer.Med en kvalitativ ansats har tre företag som ägnar sig åt kultursponsring (Vattenfall, SAS och IKEA), samt fem företag som sysslar med idrottssponsring (AXA, Svenska spel, Agent 03, Adidas och ICA), undersökts för att kunna göra denna jämförelse. Samtliga intervjuobjekt är belägna i Stockholm.Resultatet av undersökningen har tydligt visat att Idrottssponsorer prioriterar exponering och en naturlig koppling mellan sponsorobjektet och den egna verksamheten.

Hur verkligheten kan upplevas för en H/B/T/Q-person : -En studie med Grounded Theory som forskningsstrategi

Studien har syftat till att skapa förståelse för hur verkligheten kan upplevas för personer som identifierar sig som homosexuella, bisexuella, transpersoner och/eller queer (H/B/T/Q), idag i Sverige. Vi hade en explorativ ansats utifrån detta syfte och använde oss av Grounded theory som kvalitativ metod för datainsamling och databearbetning. Vi intervjuade 11 H/B/T/Q-personer i Örebro, och vi fann ett antal centrala teman som var återkommande i intervjuberättelserna. Dessa handlade om hur sociala interaktioner med omgivningen påverkade den egna processen mot ett öppet liv som H/B/T/Q-person eller ett mer dolt. Det framkom också att det fanns en koppling mellan öppenhet i detta avseende och psykiskt välbefinnande.

Zakrisdal : Område i förvandling

Zakrisdal and the west coast region of Karlstad was at one time a protected area where the ammunition factory AmF Zakrisdal 1941-1994 was situated. This factory manufactured explosives for the Swedish armed forces and for export. In this context it is an interesting paradox that the production of ammunition, mines and armorpiercing grenades for more than 50 years has preserved the environment surrounding the factory.The factory is now gone and the production is moved to Karlskoga. Plans are being made to build housing for 3-4000 residents and other enterprises within the area. The area now stands before yet another change, most likely the most profound to date.The inspiration for this work comes from the economic historic Jan Jörnmark.

Dynamisk kunskapsorganisation: teoretisk ansats och implementering

Knowledge organization is perceived as a central, constituting activity defining the notion of libraries. Critique calling for a new theoretical foundation voiced by active researchers within library and information science concerning the current knowledge organization has been utilized as a point of departure. Specifications concerning a new theoretical foundation implied by these critiques are considered within this thesis and theory found in The Order of Things by Michel Foucault proposed as an alternative theory for understanding knowledge organization as a human science where meaning, value and representation, by which the ordering of things is possible, is acknowledged as a result of human activity and history. Thus meaning, value and representation must be perceived as dynamic. An example of implementation of the proposed theory has been achieved by the use of bibliometrics.

Kommunala ägardirektiv : En studie om ägardirektivens roll i kommunala fastighetsbolags internkontroll

I Sverige är det väldigt vanligt att kommuner äger och driver företag. Detta samtidigt som allt fler företagsskandaler uppmärksammats, vilket ledigt till ett ökat fokus på bolagsstyrning. Det finns vissa skillnader mellan de privata och kommunala bolagen som innebär att de kommunala företagen måste framhäva samhällsnytta och långsiktig ansvarstagande, och ha reducerad fokusering kring maximerad vinst. Detta är något som måste framgå i de kommunala ägardirektiven. Ägardirektiven är ett styrdokument där ägarna, det vill säga kommunerna beskriver de krav som de kommunala företagen bör uppnå.

Dealing with Dragons and Standard Carriers

This master thesis concerns itself with the actual work of knowledge workers, consultants to be specific. We have through interviews and observation tried to get inside of the ?black box? of the consultants firm Consult in an effort to describe their way of working through a theoretical framework. In this framework we attempt to combine knowledge work theory with that of organizational development, OD. We try to introduce the situation of the individuals we study, the consultants, through Alvesson (2004) and Løwendahl (2005).
