Vi har funnit att mångfalden påverkar innovationen positivt, och den är en del av större koncept som vi kallar för den innovativa företagskulturen. För att företag ska lyckas med att vara innovativt måste ledningen implementera en innovativ företagskultur. Den innovativa företagskulturen har stor påverkan på innovationen och vi har funnit att i Sony-Ericssons fall består den av mångfald, rekrytering, lärandet, belönings och incitamentsystemet, nätverket och den coachande ledarstilen..

Diskussioner kring kulturell ma?ngfald har la?nge varit och a?r fortfarande ho?gaktuellt i arbetsmarknadspolitik och organisationer. Da? majoriteten av tidigare forskning har fokuserat pa? de organisatoriska utfall som kulturellt ma?ngfaldiga ledningsgrupper genererat i, motiverades en studie som underso?ker arbetsprocessen. Trots ett allt sto?rre uttalat intresse fo?r ma?ngfald i fo?retagsledningar finns fortfarande brister i praktiken, och tidigare forskning har lyft fram ba?de fo?r- och nackdelar med kulturell ma?ngfald i arbetsgrupper.

I vårt tolkningsarbete ser vi att vårt fallföretag, genom sina sociala aktiviteter, stimulerar till en ökad sammanhållning och som uppmuntrar till mångfald och interna stridigheterna, tävlingar, karriärstegar och konkurrens, mellan medarbetarna. Det framkommer tydligt för medarbetarna att det naturliga urvalet, de starkaste och mest kompetenta, ska ligga till grund för vem eller vilka som ska leda framtidens �byslagsmål� om marknadsandelarna. Genom de sociala aktiviteterna främjar ledningen på ett naturligt sätt såväl framväxandet av och acceptansen för hierarkier och normerande strukturer inom företaget samtidigt som de garanterar tillväxten och bereder vägen för de nya ledarna.

Uppsatsen syftar till att underso?ka kulturtidskrifternas roll och status i det svenska samha?llet idag, bland annat genom intervjuer med verksamma redakto?rer pa? olika kulturtidskrifter. Som problembakgrund presenteras den paradoxala situation som kulturtidskrifterna sta?lls emot: de anses som viktiga fo?r yttrandefrihet, demokrati och ma?ngfald men blir a?nda? fo?rsummade och underprioriterade inom politik och forskning. Utifra?n detta formuleras tre fra?gesta?llningar:Hur ser redakto?rerna pa? den politik som drivs kring kulturtidskriften?Vad anser redakto?rerna att kulturtidskriften har fo?r roll och status i samha?llet?Hur kan kulturtidskriftens roll och status tolkas utifra?n de intervjuaderedakto?rernas svar, den ra?dande kulturpolitiska diskussionen, kulturteorier ochtidigare forskning?Dessa fra?gor analyseras utifra?n intervjusvaren, tidigare forskning, Horkheimer ochAdornos teoretisering av kulturindustrin, Habermas teorier om det offentliga rummet samt Bourdieus fa?ltteori och teori om ekonomiskt och kulturellt kapital.

This thesis deals with the concepts of individual and individuation as defined by Leibniz and Spinoza. I go through the use and definition of the concept of individual in four stages.First I discuss the individual as conceived by Spinoza as a relation formed by a composition of parts and the individual as conceived by Leibniz as a complete notion consisting of all the events in the life of a subject.Next is the roll of perception in Leibniz discussed, likewise individuation through different perception with varying distinctness, and the affinity of perception with affection.The discussions concerning the individual concludes in a section about the essence of the individual as being the desire of the individual. In the last stage, I discuss the multitude as being an own individual..

The aim of this thesis is to examine the theoretical developments on social entrepreneurship. Our purpose is to create a better understanding of the phenomenon leading to new insights. We have categorized the knowledge of the concept into social economy, social ownership, social innovation and social missions. Drawing from our theoretical review we have chosen four empirical illustrations, Grameen Bank, Wikipedia, Basta Arbetskooperativ, Jörn Hälsogemenskap, and we have shown how these fit into the general description of the social entrepreneur. With help of our illustrations we show that it is complicated to pin point the core of social entrepreneurship as they each have separate structures, innovations, social missions and operate close to different sectors.
