Women ledaers and profitability, is there a correlation? Earlier research show different outcome on the correlation between women leaders and profitability. A Swedish consultant firm, Caran has a belief that more women leaders would create more financial profit, we ask us if that is the true situation. Using two different IC measurement methods we have shown the difficulties in calculate intagible resources, which methods that can/ can not be used and if women leders create financial value. We found the women leaders in Caran to add more value per dollar spent on the woman leaders than the value added per dollar spent on men leaders.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att studera om Handelsbankens vinstandelsstiftelse Oktogonen ger upphov till motiverade anställda samt om Oktogonen och bankens låga personalomsättning har ett samband. Studien bygger på en fallstudie. Datainsamling har skett genom främst intervjuer och tidigare forskning i form av böcker och artiklar. Resultatet har visat att viktiga faktorer för att uppnå en låg personalomsättning inom banken bland annat är en decentraliserad organisation samt att anställda känner en trygghet till sin arbetsgivare. Oktogonen påverkar i begränsad utsträckning, dock främst äldre medarbetares rörlighet..

Avregleringen som skedde på mitten av åttiotalet medförde att fler aktörer etablerade sig på marknaden vilket genererade en hårdare konkurrens. En branschglidning uppstod som innebar att bank och försäkring blev ett.Förändringar av de befintliga tjänsterna inom finanssektorn har resulterat i att den mänskliga faktorn i bank- och försäkringsbolagen till stor del har fallit bort och ersatts av mer automatiserade tjänster. Fler bankkontor har slagit igen portarna och de som finns kvar har fått en ny roll i samhället och fungerar idag främst som rådgivningsplatser. De tjänster som kontoren idag erbjuder är av mer komplex karaktär och får därigenom en högre betydelse för kunden. Utformningen av kontor har således visat sig bli ett allt viktigare komplement vilket bank- och försäkringsbolagen kan differentiera sig med och sända ut signaler till sina kunder, detta på en marknad som präglas av mycket hård konkurrens.

This two years master?s thesis in Library and Information Sciences aims to investigate and put the services of 118100 Svar På Allt (SPA, an SMS mobile question and answer service) and Fråga biblioteket (FB, a library operated e-mail reference service) into the context of the reference encounter. Questions sent to SPA and their subsequent answers are analysed, and part of these questions are forwarded to FB for comparative studies. Both of the formats are compared to the reference encounter as a whole. The framing of the question originates in the assumption that there may be a need for further negotiation of the questions submitted to the aforementioned formats.

Building with volume element is relatively new and has started to increase more and more. The regulations that exist to regulate and determine how the transports of volume elements are to be conducted are diffuse and not very well adjusted to address the issues with transporting volume elements. Today there are a number of instances that a company has to turn to in order to get a somewhat different view, what regulations say and interpret it in order to know what applies and not applies regarding the transportation of volume elements. regulations. The rules that are in place make it tough for the volume element producing companies to develop and continue to be active on the market.
