Individuell lönesättning : och universitetsprofessorernas arbetsmotivationJahic, Jasmina, Nevala, Susanna January 2005 (has links)
Background: All companies and organizations use some kind of management control. A reward system is an example of a management control system, which is used to accomplish congruence between the goals of the employees and the goals of the organization. It is also used in order to motivate the employees and to encourage them to stay within the organization. Today it is difficult for companies and organizations to create and maintain well-functioning reward systems. At many universities individual pay is used as a means of a control system in order to motivate the employees. The public sector has specific characteristics that complicate its pay systems. This affects universities since they are a part of the public sector. Purpose: The purpose is to investigate if the individual pay used at universities results in expected effects, that is, if it motivates professors in their work. The purpose is also to explain why professors are motivated/not motivated by individual pay. Research method: The material has been gathered by interviews with eight professors at the University of Linköping. Conclusion: It is difficult to use individual pay in order to motivate university professors in their work. Professors rather seem to be motivated by non-material rewards than by material such. In addition, individual pay systems can have defects that lessen the possibility of motivating professors. However, if professors have the tendency to be motivated

Budgetstyrning och Balanserat styrkort : i form av en kombinationsmodellStaflund, Anette January 2008 (has links)
Traditional financial management has lately been criticized, since it gives inadequate and unilateral information for decisions and strategy of the operation. The purpose of this essay is to investigate if a balanced scorecard is able to work together with a budget and become a stronger control system for the management. Essential theory underlies the gathering of data as well as the analysis, and the empirical investigation is based on personal interviews. The conclusions drawn from my analysis are that two parallel control systems could complement each other’s weaknesses. The budget and the balanced scorecard seem to harmonize very well, as the balanced scorecard has a long term strategy while the budget has a short term strategy. In my combination model, the difference in working only with a balanced scorecard is that the budget will have a stronger position than the financial perspective in a balanced scorecard.

Balanserade styrmått på en värdekedjaBragg, Erik, Skiöld, Fredrik January 1999 (has links)
Bakgrund: Utvecklingen inom redovisningssystem går mot att använda alltfler kompletterande icke finansiella styrmått. Genom att koppla ihop det tankar som finns inom Balanced Scorecard konceptet med ett värdekedjetänkande som finns inom Supply Chain Management kan en horisontell styrning skapas. Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att beskriva och förklara hur företag kan utveckla lönsamhetsrelaterade mått för kompetens och prestationer samt att ge förslag på en process- och värdekedjeanpassning av Balanced Scorecard modellen.Avgränsningar: Uppsatsen behandlas utifrån Balanced Scorecard och Supply Chain Management teorin där fokusering framför allt sker på måttframtagningen. De personer som intervjuats är verksamma inom Svedala Industri i Sverige, Tyskland och Frankrike. Genomförande: Uppsatsen bedrevs som en fallstudie där intervjuerna skedde på med personer på divisionsnivå, marknadsnivå samt försäljarnivå med återkommande intervjuer vid behov. Intervjuresultaten användes för att testa den egna modellen i verkligheten. Resultat: Uppsatsen visar att incitament föreligger för användning av kompletterande styrnyckeltal för att förbättra företaget. Vidare har vi fått stöd för vår utvecklade modell där värdekedjans fördel med ett flödestänkande kombineras med balanserade styrnyckeltals förmåga ge en bra inblick i företag.

MANAGEMENT CONTROL SYSTEMS: THE RECIPE FOR STRATEGIC VISUALIZATION : - ONE CASE AND TWO CONTROL SYSTEMS; BALANCED SCORECARD AND TABLEAU DE BORDBjörk, Ann, Sjöstrand, Malin January 2011 (has links)
Abstract Purpose: The aim of this thesis is to contribute to a richer understanding of the two management control systems, Balanced Scorecard (BSC) and Tableau de Bord (TDB), and their ability to function in a real life setting, as an important element for efficiently support organization’s strategy. Design/Methodology/Approach: A case study, containing Company A, was executed through a qualitative approach with the intention to connect the theories, the control systems BSC and TDB, to a real life setting. The empirical findings are mainly based upon information collected through semi-structured interviews. Findings: The BSC is perceived as strict and controlling in its nature and as primarily establishing facts, while the TDB enhances communication with an educational intention. Regardless of the numerous of advantages the use of a TDB would entail, the current structure of Company A, with its hierarchical approach, resists its implementation. Theory, together with the employee’s desire, might imply TDB as the optimal alternative for supporting the strategy, however, the reality of Company A, with the directors of the board as monitors and decision-makers, suggests the use of a BSC. As a result of the correlation between the choice of MCS and the ideology of an organization, BSC will continue to be perceived as the optimal practice within Company A as long as the top-down approach remains. Whether the theory or the reality is to decide which control system to be used is for the organization to determine. Regardless of the organization’s choice of control system, advantages will emerge if a genuine implementation is completed in close connection to the theoretical framework. Research Limitations: The thesis intends to investigate the connection between control system and strategy, however, without providing any explicit theoretical framework regarding strategy. Nor will the strategic content of Company A be further analyzed. The small sample limits the ability to provide any general conclusions, however, similarities and parallels can be drawn and associated to related situations. Practical Implications: The thesis is mainly concerned with highlighting the practical relevance of the theories employed. Further Research: The TDB practice will require a more developed acknowledgment beyond its domestic origin before it can be recognized among organizations as a valid alternative to the BSC. In order for the BSC to continue being perceived as a respected control system, there is a need of a continued development of the theory in correspondence to the rapid changes in the business environment, which in turn would allow for greater flexibility in its use. Further, there is a need to emphasize the importance for organizations to involve their employees in open dialogue, which would ensure more precise information when implementing a BSC. This applies to both internal and external information.

”När det inte går som det är tänkt” : En studie av Sveriges finansiella institut och deras hantering av mål i samband med operativa riskerMartinsson, Josefine, Schelin Kärras, Sofie January 2011 (has links)
Titel: ”När det inte går som det är tänkt” – En studie av Sveriges finansiella institut och deras hantering av mål i samband med operativa risker. Seminariedatum: 31 maj 2011 Kurs: 4FE03E Examensarbete – Civilekonomprogrammet Författare: Josefine Martinsson och Sofie Schelin Kärras Nyckelord: Operativ risk, Mål, Management Control System, Risk Management Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva hur Sveriges finansiella institut arbetar för att sträva mot målkongruens gällande mål som berör operativa risker enligt Basel II samt att ge tänkbara förklaringar till generella mönster i de finansiella institutens tillvägagångssätt. Med hjälp av hypotesprövningar syftar vi till att söka dessa tänkbara förklarningar. Teori: Den teori som vi främst använt oss av i denna studie är teori om omvärldens påtryckningar, målkongruens, Management Control Systems, Risk Management och Operativa risker. Information som presenteras av BIS angående hur operativa risker bör hanteras ingår även i vår teoretiska referensram. Övrig information om Basel II som syftar till att skapa en förståelse kring hur de operativa riskerna är reglerade presenteras i Bilaga 1. Metod: Undersökningsmetoden som använts i denna studie är en surveyundersökning. Datainsamlingen vid denna surveyundersökning har skett med hjälp av telefonintervjuer. Datamaterialet har sedan analyserats genom att dels beskriva den insamlade data men även genom att söka eventuella förklaringar med hjälp av statistiska analyser. Empiri: Empirin till denna studie består av interjuver med 30 av Sveriges banker. Empirin består av information som till största delen har kunnat kodas. Dock inkluderar empirin även okodad information som i denna studie ses som kompletterande information till de statistiska analyserna. Resultat: I resultatet kan vi konstatera att det finns ett fåtal statistiska samband mellan hur Sveriges banker arbetar med mål som berör den operativa risken. Detta är ett intressant resultat då det kunde förväntas att det skulle finnas ett samband eftersom dessa risker är reglerade. De enstaka samband som vi kunnat finna då denna studie genomförts påvisar att det i stor utsträckning saknas ett enhetligt tillvägagångssätt för hur Sveriges banker använder mål angående operativa risker för att uppnå målkongruens.
