Respondents advocate similar values and want to reach suchlike objectives. These is first of all a normal family, a normal job and own children.

En sökning på ledarskapsutveckling via Google och databasen APA PsycInfo renderar sammanlagt drygt 200 000 träffar. Detta tyder på ett stort intresse för ledarskapsutveckling. Syftet med uppsatsen är att studera hur deltagare tar sig an uppgiften att bearbeta samt eventuellt vidareutveckla upplevelser samt förändringar som tar plats under och efter en UGL kurs. Frågeställningarna berör ämnen runt hur de i sin ledarroll arbetat med inhämtade kunskaper och hur de som individer upplever att de har påverkats. Vi intervjuade sex ledare från mellersta och södra Sverige som deltagit på en UGL kurs under 2019. Vi använde oss av en semistrukturerad intervju där valet föll på att bearbeta insamlad empiri med hjälp av en tematisk analys. Det som framkom när det gällde ledarrollen var utveckling av tydlighet, trygghet samt effekter av det egna ledarskapet och behovet av användbara verktyg. Det mest utmärkande på det individuella planet var att deltagarna upplevde att de fick kunskaper om sig själv. Grupputvecklingens betydelse var ett ämne som de flesta frekvent återkom till under intervjuerna. Trots det ringa, men ändå väl geografiskt spridda respondentdeltagandet, har vi fått ett relativt fylligt resultat. Detta gav insyn i deras upplevelser av hur kursen har påverkat dem, kunskaper de förvärvat som ledare och inverkan det haft på dem som individer. / When searching for leadership development at Google and the database APA PsycInfo you get a about 200,000 hits.
