Att arbeta i team är något som blivit allt vanligare på senare tid. Många organisationer har övergivit den traditionella hierarkiska organisationsstrukturen och övergått till att införa en teambaserad organisationsform. Att arbeta i team innebär att teammedlemmarna tillsammans, genom nära och intensivt samarbete, kan utveckla idéer och fatta beslut som inte är möjligt individuellt för var och en av dem. Detta ställer krav på att organisationskultur, interna organisationssystem och ledarskap utvecklas och att de stödjer den nya strukturen. Vårt syfte med denna litteraturstudie är att beskriva ledarskapet av självstyrande team med utgångspunkt i litteraturen.

Together with Hälsoteknikalliansen the project team recognized the need to improve availability in the staircase environments. This is a difficult environment, especially for our elderly. The staircase leading to and from apartments is such a major obstacle that many people do not dare to go into the staircase leading to their front door. The market study that the project team conducted showed that many were in need of a living support, often a relative, who helped and supported them when they went into these stairs. It also appeared that these people manage everyday life just fine, but they suffer the problems that stairs to and from their apartment causes.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the use and losses of energy in an existing older building. Another purpose was also to look through various options for heating systems with renewable energy in the building. The aim was to reduce the use and losses of energy. The first step was to study the related electricity bills of the building and also perform measurements and calculations of the building envelope and ventilation. The next step was to find out the possible actions for energy saving by performing measurements and calculations.

My diploma thesis has focused on creating a proposal for a Viking center in Stockholm that meets the international interest. A building dedicated solely to the Viking heritage. My ambition has been to give the Viking center an architecture that can serve as scenography for its exhibitions and to give the visitors a feel for the Vikings that they have been craving.  A boat-shaped building in tribute to the Vikings boat building skills with curved stems of equal height that gives a familiar silhouette to the city.  A wood building constructed of curved beams and wood columns painted with tar..

The construction industry has demands on energy use in permanent buildings. How much energy that is permitted to use during the time the building is produced has no requirements. The purpose with this study is to learn how far Skanska has come with the work of making the building site more energy efficient.A literature study has been performed in the beginning of the study to survey what energy efficient arrangements that can be applied and how they operate. Using site visits and interviews the situations on the building sites have been studied as well as the energy efficient measure that are in use.Skanska has come a long way with the work of energy efficient building sites and they keep improving. They have improved half of their cabins so they use 50 % less energy.

Earlier research has shown that generational differences between younger-supervisors and older-workers may cause tensions that lead to team ineffectiveness. There is however still a lack of research in this area. This thesis presents possible tensions that might occur between a younger supervisor and an older worker due to their age and generational affiliation, and how these tensions affect the team dynamics. The empirical data collection was limited to the boundaries of the dental care industry where these generational/age differences between younger supervisor and older worker are common. The thesis looks at the tensions from a qualitative perspective and data was collected in the form of in-depth interviews with selected dentists and nurses.

Den ha?r studien a?mnar ge sto?rre fo?rsta?else fo?r den roll skillnader i nationell kultur spelar i globala virtuella team, ett arbetssa?tt som i allt sto?rre utstra?ckning anva?nds av globala fo?retag. Studien identifierar fyra byggstenar som ligger till grund fo?r teamets prestation; fo?rtroende, ledning, relationer och samarbete samt kommunikation. Utifra?n dessa teman ges en litteraturgenomga?ng som mynnar ut i en kvalitativ intervjustudie utfo?rd i ett globalt virtuellt team pa? IT-fo?retaget Tieto.

SAMMANFATTNING Problem: Det finns många tankar om organisationer och hur de ska styras. Förr handlade det om att styra företagets olika resurser för att uppnå lönsamhet. I dag krävs det mer av företagen och dess traditionella organisationsformer sätts på prov. För att utvecklas och framförallt kunna konkurrera i den allt mer föränderliga omgivningen krävs det att organisationerna är öppna för nya tankesätt. Det pågår en övergång från traditionella organisationer till processorienterade organisationer.

Varför stannar många skolor vid en yttre organisation i team medan utvecklingen av dess inre arbete går betydligt långsammare. Utifrån en fallstudie på en F-9 skola undersöks lärares och skolledares föreställningar om de hinder och möjligheter som finns för att kunna utvecklas till väl fungerande team. Vem eller vad är det som hindrar?.

The examination has been performed at Bjerking AB, which is an architectural and engineering company. Bjerking AB has the ambition to be a member of Green Building.The Green Building program developed in year 2005 by The European Commission, the program is an environmental system with the aim to improving energy efficiency within the sectors of non-residential buildings. The minimum requirements to participate the program are following: in new-built buildings the calculated energy consumption must be 25 % lower than the requirements in the BBR (Building regulations) and in refurbishment the reduction must be 25 % lower than before the optimization.The aim of this study has been to examine and review the company Bjerking AB's energy efficiency work in the project of building the school/kindergarten S:ta Maria Alsike, where the goal is to get this building Green Building classed. A description of requirements to become a member of the Green Building has also accomplished in the thesis.The methods performed in this study are literature review, searches on the Internet, studies on the project database for facts/values, calculation of energy consumption and interviews of members of the Green Building. The following issues have been dealt with in the report;-          Did the building in the project manage the requirement to achieve an   energy consumption that is 25% lower than the requirements in BBR?-          What technical measures/system was selected in the building?-          What kind of cooperation was the project based on?-          What is required for consultancy companies and real estate owners to become members of the Green Building?The study of the project and calculation of estimated energy consumption in the building, give the result 47 kWh/m2, year.

This report describes the construction process and the aspects that should be taken into consideration. It includes models of decision and how these can be used in practice. Planning of a building project is very important for a successful execution. This will be the foundation of problems that will occur during the production. In the planning process people with different positions, search for the best suitable building methods.
