En kartläggning av introduktionsprocessen för nyanställda : En studie genomförd på två restauranger

Mathisson, Sebastian, Afram, Ramin January 2016 (has links)
Introduktionsprocesser är en viktig del i många verksamheter och speciellt inom restaurangbranschen där nyanställda snabbt ska kunna arbeta självständigt. Restaurangbranschen är också en av de branscherna med högst personalomsättning, vilket kan vara ett problem. Med en genomtänkt och förbättrad introduktion vid nyanställning kan organisationer få sina anställda förstå de mål, visioner och strategier som organisationen satt upp. Detta kan då leda till att personal stannar längre på arbetsplatsen. Målsättningen med denna studie har varit att kartlägga och jämföra hur introduktionen ser ut för nyanställda inom restaurang A och B och vilka åtgärder som kan göras för att förbättra introduktionen med hjälp av etablerade teorier och modeller inom informationslogistik. För att besvara studiens forskningsfrågor har ett deduktivt angreppssätt använts där vi som undersökare gått från empiri till teori. Den data som samlats in kommer från intervjuer och enkätundersökningar som var metodvalen för undersökningen. Två stycken restaurangers introduktionsprocesser för nyanställda kartlades för att se hur de arbetar med introduktionen för nyanställda. Undersökningen gjordes med de ansvariga för respektive introduktion och de personer som varit anställda två år eller kortare. Med hjälp av de intervjuer och enkätundersökning som genomfördes med ansvariga restaurangchefer och anställda inom restaurang A och B kunde en kartläggning av nuläget presenteras. De diskussioner som förts från resultatet av studien har visat att ansvariga för introduktionerna saknar dokumentation för hur processen ska gå till. Introduktion har därför kunnat bli skiftande beroende på hur och när den genomförts. En etablerad introduktionsprocess bör införas, för att varje nyanställd ska få samma förutsättningar att kunna utföra sitt arbete enligt restaurangernas mål, visioner och strategier. De slutsatser som studien presenterar visar på förbättringsförslag genom den empiri som samlats in har kopplats ihop med teori, modeller och tidigare forskning. Dessa förbättringar har skapat introduktionsplan med etablerade processer. / Introduction processes are an important part of many activities, especially in the catering industry, where new employees can quickly work independently. The catering is also one of the sectors with the highest turnover, which could be a problem. With a well thought out and improved introduction for new employees, companies can get their employees to understand the goals, visions and strategies that the company had set up. This can then lead to staff staying longer at work. The aim of this study was to identify and compare how the introduction looks for new employees in the restaurant A and B and the measures that can be done to improve the introduction using the established theories and models in information logistics. To answer the thesis research questions, have a deductive approach been used where we as investigators passed from empiricism to theory. The data collected from interviews and surveys were elections approach for the investigation. Two restaurant's introduction process for new employees was surveyed to see how they work with the introduction of new employees. The survey was conducted with those responsible for each introduction and the people who have been employed for two years or less. With the help of interviews and surveys we conducted with responsible restaurant managers and employees of the restaurant, A and B could be an overview of the current situation presented. The discussions of the results of the study have shown that responsible for the introductions have no documentation of how the process should be conducted. Introduction has therefore been able to be varied depending on how and when it is completed. An established introduction process should be introduced to each new employee should have the same opportunities to carry out their work according to the restaurant's goals, visions and strategies. The conclusions of the thesis present the shows of improvement proposals by the empirical evidence gathered has been linked with the theory, models and previous research. These improvements have created introductory plan with established processes.

Sucesso de sistemas de Business Intelligence: uma abordagem multidimensional. / Business intelligence systems sucess: a multidimensional approach.

Aristizabal, Catalina Ramirez 09 May 2016 (has links)
Assim como outros investimentos em tecnologia da informação, os sistemas de Business Intelligence (BI) também têm sido questionados em relação aos benefícios e retornos obtidos depois de sua implantação. Isso porque o produto de BI é inteligência, ou, em outras palavras, algum tipo de informação processada, e o valor da informação é difícil de avaliar. A presente pesquisa pretende contribuir ao estudo desse problema de pesquisa, abordando o tema da avaliação dos sistemas de BI por meio do modelo de sucesso de sistemas de informação proposto por DeLone e McLean. Além das dimensões tradicionais inter-relacionadas do modelo: capacidade de BI, qualidade da informação, satisfação dos usuários e nível de uso, foi incluída a variável a abordagem de decisão, pois um dos principais objetivos dos sistemas de BI é processar dados advindos de diferentes fontes, para produzir informação que sirva como suporte para a tomada de decisão. Uma vez que a capacidade de BI e a qualidade da informação são constructos multidimensionais, uma das contribuições desta pesquisa foi realizar um levantamento na literatura sobre as dimensões que operacionalizam esse constructo e avaliá-las empiricamente. A capacidade de BI foi definida em termos de acessibilidade, capacidades analíticas, flexibilidade e integração, e qualidade da informação em termos de atualidade, completude, oportunidade e precisão. O problema de pesquisa foi abordado por meio da metodologia de survey, em que os respondentes foram convidados a participar da pesquisa via e-mail e o questionário foi disponibilizado em forma eletrônica através da ferramenta SurveyMonkey. No total, foram obtidas 483 repostas, das quais 246 foram válidas. Já que o modelo conceitual proposto inclui múltiplas relações de interdependência, a técnica estatística selecionada para analisar os dados foi a modelagem de equações estruturais. O software utilizado foi o SmartPLS que testa o modelo estrutural por meio do método de mínimos quadrados ordinários. Foi possível comprovar empiricamente todas as relações de causalidade propostas entre as dimensões de sucesso dos sistemas de BI, a exceção da relação de moderação da variável abordagem de decisão na relação de causalidade entre satisfação e nível de uso. Um teste subsequente permitiu observar que essa variável poderia ser preditora do nível de uso. Segundo os resultados, é possível afirmar que o sucesso de BI pode ser definido em termos da capacidade de BI, qualidade da informação, satisfação dos usuários e nível de uso. A operacionalização realizada dos constructos multidimensionais \"capacidade de BI\" e \"qualidade da informação\" poderia dar luzes sobre quais características devem ser priorizadas na implantação e/ou desenvolvimento dos sistemas de BI nas empresas. / As well as other investments in Information Technology (IT), Business Intelligence (BI) systems have also been questioned in relation to the benefits and returns obtained after its implementation. These questions arise because the BI product is intelligence, or, in other words, some kind of processed information and the value of information is difficult to assess. This research aims to contribute to this by addressing the issue of evaluation of BI systems through the information systems success model proposed by DeLone and McLean, beyond the traditional dimensions that are interrelated: BI capabilities, quality of information, user satisfaction, and level of use. The decision approach was included as a variable since a key objective of BI systems is to process data coming from different sources to produce information that serves as a basis for the decision-making process. Once the BI capability and information quality are multidimensional constructs, one of the contributions of this study was to review the literature available about the dimensions that operationalize this construct and evaluate them empirically. BI capability was defined in terms of accessibility, analytical capabilities, flexibility and integration, and the information quality in terms of opportunity, completeness, timeliness and accuracy. The research problem was addressed by the survey methodology: the respondents were invited to participate in the survey via email and the questionnaire was made available in electronic form through the SurveyMonckey tool. A number of 246 responses were usable out of the 483 total responses that were obtained. Since the proposed conceptual model includes multiple interdependencies, the statistical technique selected to analyze the data was the structural equation modeling. The software used was the SmartPLS, which tests the structural model using the ordinary least squares method. It was possible to prove empirically all the causal relationships proposed between success dimensions of BI systems, except for the moderation effect of making-decision approach variable on the relationship between satisfaction and usage level. A subsequent test allowed us to observe that this variable could be a predictor of the level of use. According to these results, we can say that the success of BI can be defined in terms of BI capability, the quality of information, user satisfaction and the level of use. The operationalization of the variables BI capability and information quality as a multidimensional construct could enlighten the decision about which features should be prioritized in implementing the development of BI systems in companies.

Improving pre-surgery information with a digital information system : A qualitative case study

Lehn, Dan January 2017 (has links)
In today’s society, much information is utilized and distributed through information and communication technology. However, even though IT or ICT has been introduced in the healthcare sector, paper documents are still in use. Studies show that this may create an inefficient healthcare, something pre-surgical medical personnel at a medical clinic in the southern part of Sweden, are well aware of.Their problem is that an increasing number of surgical procedures are cancelled as patients fail to comply with pre-surgery information; the information provided to patients before having surgery. Pre-surgical medical personnel believe that the root to this problem comes from the way patients are given access to the information itself. Currently, this is limited to paper document, a solution that worked in the past. However, a more diverse clientele has resulted in a greater need for information access and paper documents simply cannot support this in an effective manner.Pre-surgical medical personnel believe this could be improved if the information was also made accessible through an information system. And so, the focus of the master thesis was to explore the pre-surgical medical personnel’s perception on the requirements, usage and impact of a new IS that could, subsequently, generate improvements in the accessibility and understandability of pre-surgery information.The problematic situation was approached with an interpretative qualitative case study were data was collected through three different methods so that triangulation could take place. The master thesis then utilized a modified version of the Delone and McLean’s information system success model and a content analysis to approach, analyse and discuss the collected data.The findings of this analysis revealed that pre-surgical medical personnel perceived an information system where the technology used to support it, was less significant than the information system’s ability to provide patients with equal access to pre-surgery information. The analysis also revealed that the information system must be capable of presenting information as both text and narrated video, as well as in a language chosen by the patient. Lastly, the perceived effect of the information systems implementation and usage was a substantial reduction in the number of surgeries that were cancelled.
