The purpose of this paper is to view Karlstad Municipality and their financial support to non-profit organizations within equestrian sports. Despite the varying representatives of various equestrian sports in Karlstad, there seems to be a single beneficiary within the sport when it comes to financial support from the municipality. The policies and plans concerning cultural development are directly compared to the Karlstad Municipality and its contribution to these organizations within equestrian sports. Through interviews and reports I have studied the process of financial support from the Karlstad municipality using an intersectionality theory based on Nina Lykkes guide on gender studies and feminist theory. Pierre Bourdieu?s theories on field, habitus and capital are also used as a method to enhance the understanding of equestrian sports and its role in modern Swedish society. The conclusion is that the Karlstad Municipality is, for a several of reasons, promoting non-profit organizations within equestrian sports, which are operating as riding schools.

I have always been interested in sports, so when it was time to write the paper I chose to write about sports and economic.It has led to this problem: How is the function of management control and planning problems in sports?   Sports clubs are non-profit association and non-profit organizations aim to support members? moral and economic interests.

American football is a well-known sport in America. In addition to the design and rules of the game and the surface it is played on, there are also other differences that are not directly visible. One difference noted in this study is how the teams in the game provide players. Each team has a board of directors together with the team's leadership and they will determine which players are most suitable for the team. These players are recruited to the team after graduating from a U.S.

This thesis examines the gender boundaries in sports. I do this by exploring three cases in which these boundaries, at least on the surface, have been questioned: the transsexual tennis player Renée Richards, the east European runners Marita Koch and Jarmila Kratochvilova and the Swedish golf player Annika Sörenstam. The results point out different mechanisms that contain the"danger"and restore"security". But they also point out a criticism against the struggle for equality in sports, which is based on the preserving of differences and therefore cannot challenge the ideological assumptions about gender in sports..

I samhället idag förekommer arbete i team i stor utsträckning och inom de flesta branscher. Att få dessa team att fungera väl och prestera som förväntat är ofta en utmaning. Det gäller även mångprofessionella team där individer med olika utbildningsbakgrund arbetar tillsammans i team. Ansvaret för detta faller ofta på HR-ansvariga och chefer i arbetsledande ställning som måste få dessa individer att inte bara fungera utan prestera väl tillsammans i ett team.Respondenterna i denna studie kommer från en bredd av organisationer, allt från vinstdrivna företag i den privata sektorn till vårdverksamheter inom offentlig sektor finns representerade i studien. Respondenterna har befattningar inom ledningen och ingår antingen i HR-avdelningen eller utövar arbetsledning över dessa tidigare nämnda team.Som bakgrund till studien finns tidigare forskning inom området grupputveckling och mångprofessionella team.Syftet var att se hur olika organisationer arbetade med utveckling av mångprofessionella team och detta undersöktes genom kvalitativa intervjuer.Resultatet i studien visar att det skiljer sig väldigt mycket i organisationerna som undersökts kring hur de arbetar med utvecklingen av mångprofessionella team.I rapportens diskussionsdel analyseras resultatet i studien i förhållande till tidigare forskning och vissa tankar ges till organisationer som möter liknande utmaningar i form av mångprofessionella team.Slutsatsen är att det är väldigt viktigt för organisationen att känna till och arbeta med teamutveckling, förstå grupputvecklingsprocessen samt förstå att mångprofessionella team kan skilja sig mot andra typer av team när det kommer till gruppens utveckling..

Som butikschef vill man få sin personal att arbeta tillsammans som en grupp. Det kan vara svårt att få personalen att arbeta mot samma mål som krävs för att bli ett bra team.

Virtual teams are teams where team members don?t sit and work in the same place, they canwork in different countries, cities and buildings. It?s not the distance between team members that defines a virtual team, it's the extent to which the team is dependent on information technology to communicate and carry out a task.

För att arbetet i ett virtuellt team ska vara framgångsrikt krävs en effektiv koordinering av arbetet. Målet med vår studie var att identifiera viktiga faktorer vid koordinering av virtuella team. Undersökningen visar att en kommunikationskanal inte behöver ha en hög grad av informationsrikedom eller social närvaro för att den skall upplevas som ett stöd vid koordineringen av virtuella team. Väl inarbetade vanor och rutiner samt användarnas personlighet avgör vilka kommunikationskanaler som väljs. Studien visar även att koordineringen kräver tydlighet med vilken information som ska cirkulera samt vilka kommunikationskanaler som ska användas.
