Syftet med denna kvalitativa studie i form av sju semistrukturerade intervjuer var att undersökahur olika aktörer arbetar för att stödja sina klienter mot en positiv framtid. Avsikten var att belysa klienternas behov, hur väl dessa stämmer överens med det stöd aktörerna erbjuder samt att undersöka om detta stöd har likheter med det sätt på vilket studie- och yrkesvägledare arbetar. Resultatet visar att klienternas behov är komplexa men till stor del handlar om stöd i att skapa en bättre självbild och stöd i samverkan mellan olika instanser. Detta stämmer väl överrens med det stöd verksamheterna erbjuder. Inom samtliga verksamheter används också för studie- och yrkesvägledare `typiska´ aktiviteter.

As artificial intelligence (AI) has gained more influence in recruitment, both recruitment processes and the role of the recruiter are changing. This study aims to describe and analyze how recruiters translate, use, and relate to AI in their work. Through a qualitative method based on semi-structured interviews and document analysis, the study explores recruiters? experiences, attitudes, as well as perceived obstacles and opportunities regarding the use of AI in recruitment. With a theoretical foundation in translation theory, fashion, and imitation, the study examines how AI is not only followed as a trend, but also shaped and adapted locally through translation, depending on organizational identity and needs.

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether social counselling via chat conversations could meet the criteria for a professional conversation, and how the six social workers who were interviewed felt that it had affected the profession and the clients who are seeking their help.Communication, professionality, power, roles and regions are the key topics of this study. A hermeneutic approach has not only influenced the interviews but also the content analysis that was used to encode the results.The interviews revealed that the chat conversations was a successful tool but not entirely without difficulties. The initial contact making between the client and the social worker favours the client, since she/he remains anonymous and that was the main advantage of the method. The biggest concern however was that in the anonymity it is not possible to report cases that the social worker are obligated to. The changing of forum does not necessarily affect the professionality but due to the faceless chat conversation an entire dimension of communication disappears because the loss of body language.

De senaste decenniernas ökade globalisering och konkurrensutsättning har inneburit högre krav på styrmetoder hos såväl privata som offentliga organisationer. Innes & Mitchell (1990) har utvecklat en modell för förändringar i styrmetod (på engelska management accounting change) som Cobb, et al. (1995) och Kasurinen (2002) sedan vidareutvecklat. Denna modell beskriver vad som på företagsnivå driver förändring i styrmetod och vilka barriärer som organisationen måste övervinna för att lyckas med förändringen. Offentliga organisationer styrs ofta av andra mål än privata organisationer vars mål många gånger är att tjäna pengar.

Denna explorativa studie genomfördes med en flerfaldig forskningsstrategi. Empirin bygger på intervjuer och enkäter med totalt 238 officerare varav 228 var yrkesverksamma vid studiens genomförande. Undersökningsfrågorna avhandlade drivkrafter som fick yrkesofficeren att vara kvar i yrket. Resultatet av undersökningen gav att de avgörande drivkrafterna för officersyrket bestod av ett flertal faktorer vilka inordnade under Maslows behovsteori visade sig fylla alla steg i behovshierarkin. Vissa av de avgörande faktorerna uppvisade dock skillnader i viktningsgrad främst beroende av variabler som ålder och vapengrenstillhörighet, men även av variabler som motivationsnivå, utlandserfarenhet samt tidigare civil erfarenhet.

The purpose of this study is to describe and analyze how auditors are affected by quality controls and if audit practice changes because of quality controls. To fulfill the purpose of this study there has been interviews made with five auditors. The conclusion by this study is that the interviewed auditors work practices are affected by quality controls and that the extent and effect depends on the auditor and the office that the auditor works in. The auditors who worked as quality reviewers at the agencies where they are employed at, we felt that they were more secured in the response towards quality controls.

Bakgrund:Senaste tiden har konkurrensen hårdnat för att locka invånare, företag och investerare till städerna. Detta har gjort det allt viktigare att utmärka sig som en attraktiv plats att bo på och leva i. Städer profilerar sig alltmer genom platsmarknadsföring. Däremot skiljer sig tillvägagångssättet och samarbetet inom planeringsgrupperna av det strategiska marknadsföringsarbetet.Syfte:Med studien vill författarna studera FMJ:s samarbete mellan privat och offentlig sektor samt om de enskilda intressenternas verksamhet påverkar det gemensamma arbetet inom FMJ. Författarna kommer samtidigt att undersöka om intressenterna anser att FMJ har uppnått de riktlinjer och mål som har tagits fram.Metod:Författarna har valt att genomföra en kvalitativ fallstudie i form av samtalsintervjuer.
