2	Rollen som mellanchef i politiskt styrda organisationer Stojcevski, Samuel, Möller, Anton January 2020 (has links) Syftet med studien är att beskriva och problematisera mellanchefers roll inom politiskt styrda organisationer. Med utgångspunkt i krav, resurs, stöd och arbetsrelaterad stress gav vi oss ut för att svara på följande frågeställningar: Hur upplever de intervjuade mellancheferna sin roll i den politiskt styrda organisationen utifrån de krav som ställs på dem och de resurser de har till sitt förfogande? Hur upplever deltagarna sin psykosociala arbetsmiljö utifrån krav, resurs och finner de stöd i verksamheten? Hur anser intervjupersonerna att den politiska styrningen påverkar deras roll? För att besvara dessa frågeställningar gjordes åtta semistrukturerade intervjuer med mellanchefer verksamma inom politiskt styrda organisationer. Tidigare forskning om mellanchefer framställer en ansträngd situation som präglas av hög arbetsbelastning och begränsat handlingsutrymme. Intresset för att studera mellanchefer väcktes genom denna framställningen av rollen. Det teoretiska ramverket för forskningsstudien innefattar JD-R modellen och två teoretiska begrepp vilka är Politisk styrning och Systemteoretisk hantering av arbetsrelaterad stress. Studiens resultat visar att mellanchefsrollen är en komplex roll som inte alltid är lätt att verka i. Den organisatoriska strukturen, med bland annat långa beslutsvägar, leder till att tidsbrist kan uppstå. Resultatet visar även att deltagande mellanchefer upplever bristande stöd från ledning. Därtill kan vi även se att mellancheferna upplever kraven som rimliga, med förutsättning att de är välformulerade och tydligt beskrivna. / The purpose of the study is to describe and problematize middle managers roles within politically controlled organizations. Based on the concepts of politically controlled organizations, according to demands, resources, support and job related stress, we arranged interviews to receive answers on the following questions: How does the interviewed middle manager experience their role within the politically controlled organizations, according to the demands they have on them and the resources they have at theirs disposal? How does the participator view their psychosocial work environment, according to the demands and resources? Can they find support within the organization? How does the person being interviewed consider the impact of their profession? We interviewed eight middle managers to answer our questions above. Previous research about middle managers describe the role as based on high workload with limited latitude. The interest of researching the subject concerning middle managers came through this description of the role. The theoretical models that are in use to settle the study is the JD-R model and two theoretical concepts; political control and system theoretical handling of work- related stress. The result of this study present that the role of middle managers is complex, and is certainly not always easy to act upon. The structure within the organization leads to time restrictions, and the path to decision making is far. It even shows that the contested middle managers experience insufficient support from the management. Therefore, what we can see as well, is that the middle managers believe that the demands are fair, through the presumption that they are described clearly.

3	Olika riktlinjer och krav - vem ska gå utanför ramen? : En kvalitativ studie om handläggares upplevelse av arbetet och samverkan kring äldre med psykisk ohälsa / Different guidelines and requirements - who should act outside the framework? : A qualitative study of care managers experience of work and collaboration around elderly people with mental illness Sjöblom, Emilia, Eklund, Evelina January 2021 (has links) Previous studies show that elderly people with mental illness tend not to have their needs met due to lack of interaction between authorities (Grundberg, Hansson, Religa & Hillerås 2016). The purpose of this study is therefore to investigate what care managers in social psychiatry and elderly care experience affect their work and collaboration between them. In this way, we want to create a deeper understanding of how work and collaboration affect the care of older people with mental illness. This qualitative study is based on semi-structured interviews with six care managers. We have used a thematic analysis to analyze our empirical material. Through transcription and reading of the empirical material, we have highlighted quotations that have identified repetitions, similarities and differences that have since shaped themes. Furthermore, the material was analyzed based on theories of collaboration (Danermark & Kullberg 1999; Grape 2015) and Lipsky's street level bureaucracy. Our study shows that care managers feel that collaboration is a prerequisite for being able to meet the needs of elderly people with mental illness, but opinions differ on whether the support needs of the target group are actually met. Collaboration between social psychiatry and elderly care is generally perceived to work well, even though our results show some contradictions to this claim. Finally, the study shows that collaboration and social work is influenced by various factors such as proximity and distance, as well as laws and guidelines and knowledge about these. These factors affect the care manager's room for manoeuvre and professional identity, which is also perceived to affect the possibilities for collaboration. Collaboration, room for manoeuvre and professional identity seem to be related and through interaction all parts form a whole.

4	Beslutsfattande och maktdistans i Nato / Decision-Making and Power Distance in NATO Palme, Linnéa January 2024 (has links) Denna kvalitativa studie syftar till att undersöka hur anställda inom Nato upplever att maktdistans påverkar beslutsfattandet. För att svara på min frågeställning har jag använt mig av en kvalitativ metod med inkäter, där sex deltagare från fyra olika länder svarade. Resultatet analyserades med en tematisk analys där fem teman framträdde, beslutsfattande, hierarki, kultur, maktdistans och språk. Resultatet är att maktdistans i viss utsträckning påverkar beslutsfattande inom Nato beroende på vilket land som representanterna kommer ifrån. Länders indirekta makt varierar beroende på storlek, befolkningsmängd och hur länge de varit medlemmar av Nato. Studien visar på att maktdistans existerar och påverkar beslut i viss utsträckning men att frågan är komplex då de tillfrågade inte alltid vet vad begreppet maktdistans är även om svaren tyder på det. Sammanfattningsvis påverkas maktdistans av hur länge ett land varit medlemmar i alliansen, hur många personer med hög grad landet har i alliansen och hur bra dessa personer är på språk, att tolka orden i rum och tid och vikta orden rätt. Kunskap i engelska och förhandlingsvana har här betydelse. / This qualitative study aims to investigate how NATO employees experience the impact of power distance on decision-making. To answer that question, I have relied on a qualitative method consisting of a hybrid of questionnaires and interviews that were sent out. Six participants from four countries participated. When the results were examined through thematic analysis, five different themes emerged: decision-making, hierarchy, culture, power distance and language. The results indicate that power distance does affect decision-making within NATO to some extent; depending on which country the representatives come from. The indirect power wielded by the member states varies according to their respective geographical size, the size of their population and their annuity as a member of NATO. The study shows that power distance exists and to some extent affects decision-making within the organization. It also shows that the issue is complex, as not all participants are aware of the concept of power distance, although their responses indicate that they are aware of its existence within the organization. In conclusion, power distance is influenced by how long the nation has been a member of the Alliance, how many high-ranking people the nation has in the various offices of the Alliance, and how well these representatives are able to master language skills, to interpret what is said in a spatial and temporal context, and to weight words accurately; here English and negotiation skills are of great importance. command and control consensus culture decision-making equality hierarchy language NATO negotiation Ooda-loop organizational culture power distance sociolinguistic collective defence communication culture communication decentralization EU international culture leadership military culture military ranks NAC North Atlantic Council political administrative decisions political organization power security sweden Swedish Defence University national culture beslutsfattande command & control förhandling hierarki jämlikhet konsensus kultur ledning maktdistans Nato Ooda-loop organisationskultur sociolingvistik språk decentraliserad EU Försvarshögskolan internationell kultur kollektivt försvar kommunikation kultur kommunikation ledarskap makt militär kultur militära grader Nordatlantiska rådet politik politiska administrativa beslut politisk organisation säkerhet nationell kultur Other Social Sciences Annan samhällsvetenskap
