Our starting point has been to use the football player Zlatan Ibrahimovic as a model person for individualism that seams to break the ordinary socialization pattern in Sweden. The purpose of this study is to examine how the team leaders handle the socialization of more individualistic focused individuals/young persons into groups, since the Swedish School Curriculum is designed to meet each individual on his or hers former experiences. Is the socialization of individuals within team sports affected by their cultural background? And, in that case, should those facts have consequences for the sport subject at school? Those are the questions we want to explore. Besides a survey of documents, we have been seeking answers to our questions through interviews with the team leaders Roland Nilsson and Peter Bergander, the pedagogues/teachers Karin Jutterström and Håkan Jensgård and the professional football player Abgar Barson.Our study shows that the leaders and teachers of today have begun to change their view about individualists.

The main objective of this essay is to examine how the identities of young people are influenced by their choice of an individual sport or a team sport.The following questions are the focus of the essay:? How does the sport influence the creation of an identity for active young people?? How will the choice of an individual sport or a team sport affect the development of an identity in young people who practises sport?To achieve the objective of this essay I have used a qualitative research approach.

Tidigare studier har visat att ett teams prestation bland annat påverkas av den psykologiska tryggheten i teamet. Några faktorer som i tidigare forskning har visat sig ha samband med psykologisk trygghet är ledarens beteende, organisatoriskt stöd, informell maktfördelning och tillit och respekt inom teamet. Denna studie syftade till att utforska vilka faktorer som bidrar till psykologisk trygghet i team. Tio respondenter i två olika team intervjuades; ett team med en medelhög psykologisk trygghet och ett team med en hög psykologisk trygghet. I analysen jämfördes de två teamen med varandra och resultatet visade både likheter och skillnader mellan teamen.

Utvecklingen mot virtuell och mobil samverkan i organisationer har skapat utspridda team som samarbetar med hjälp av tekniska lösningar (t.ex. e-post och telefonkonferens). Arbetets positiva faktorer för individen och för organisationen utmanas i virtuella sammanhang. Genom en enkätundersökning (N=38) undersöktes hur arbetstillfredställelse, tillfredställelse med teamet, teamets utspriddhet samt ömsesidigt uppgiftsberoende var relaterade till organisations- och teamengagemang. Engagemang mättes med frågor ur OCQ (Mowday et al., 1979).

Stress is commonly found in society today. This paper aims to examine how work performance, cooperation and team spirit are maintained in demanding work environments. By studying two departments in a public hospital that practises addiction care, our findings suggest the following: If the experienced stress is mainly connected to challenge stressors, it has a positive effect on work performance. By organising work through mechanistic and organic structure, the handling of qualitative and quantitative stress is facilitated. As a consequence, first and foremost cooperation can be maintained, but also work performance and team spirit.

The aim of this essay is to find out how different factors influence the occupational role in a rehabilitation garden. The study is based on two qualitative interviews with and shadowing of the gardeners in the rehabilitation gardens of Alnarp and Gröna Rehab in Gothenburg. The result shows that the main factors that influence the occupational role is the gardener?s background, the garden/place, the participants, the team and the possibilities for development. The occupational role appears to consist of several different roles; the team-worker, the activity and project manager, the source of inspiration, the educationalist, the informer, the therapist and the fellow human being.

Hjärtsvikt är en sjukdom som är vanlig idag i Sverige och prevalens siffrorna stider. Syftet med denna stuide var att studera om hjärtsviktspatienter önskar ett team runt sig med ansats på olika egenvårds och omvårdnadsåtgärder och på vilket sätt de önskar få hjälp av teamet för att förbättra sin livskvalitet. På vilket sätt uppfattar de att ett vårdteam kan öka deras livskvalitet efterdiagnos. Åtta patienter födda mellan 1922-1942 deltog, fyra kvinnor och fyra män. Resultatet visar att informanterna har symtom som de tror beror på hög ålder, de anpassar sina aktiviteter efter vad de orkar göra, att det upplevs svårt att komma in i värdsvängen men när man väl är inne, är upplevelsen att man får bra vård.

I samband med en organisationsförändring så kan ett företag få olika konkurrensfördelar. En konkurrensfördel är bland annat att öka på motivationen hos teamet, vilket är en faktor som skapar effektivitet i ett företag.

Under de senaste decennierna har det blivit allt populärare att organisera olika typer av verk­samheter i team. Vår avsikt med detta examensarbete var att skapa en förståelse för vad ett team är, när team är det bästa arbetssättet, hur man förankrar ett team samt vilka faktorer organisationer bör ta i beaktande i strävan att skapa ett väl fungerande team. I vår empiriska undersökning genomfördes semistrukturerade intervjuer med ledningen och teamledarna inom en organisation som nyligen infört en teambaserad organisation. I resultaten speglas ledningens och teamledarnas upplevelser av denna process. Våra resultat visar att det finns många faktorer som bör tas i beaktande då man organiserar verksamheten i team.
