This essay examines the communication strategies employed by Jacinda Ardern and Erna Solberg during the Covid 19 crisis, with a focus on how they exhibit feminine leadership at- tribute s that show empathetic and interpersonal skills . W e find that both Ardern and Solberg demonstrated similarities in language and visual elements from their Facebook posts during the selected period 21 03 2020 to18 06 2021 to communicate their main messages. They em- phasize interpersonal communication to establish and maintain relationships by expressing gratitude towards their respective populations. By categorizing the behaviours observed in Ardern and Solberg’s communication, specifically the pract ices of preserving, mutual em- powerment, and team creation as described by Fletcher (1999), skills such as empathy, caring and cooperation were identified . This essay's results indicate that feminine leadership utes, as exemplified by Ardern and Solbe rg, prove effective in crisis management, particu- larly in addressing concerns, fostering empathy, and promoting collective responsibility.

Bakgrund och problem: Studien har avsikt att undersöka hur det vardagliga ledarskapet uppfattas av medarbetare inom Borås Stad. Detta eftersom att ledarskap idag kan definieras och uppfattas olika beroende på bakomliggande faktorer, exempelvis hur det skiljer sig mellan det uppfattade manliga respektive kvinnliga ledarskapet. Syfte och metod: Det primära syftet med denna studie är öka förståelsen vad gäller uppfattade ledarskapsutmaningar, om det skiljer sig mellan ett manligt och kvinnligt ledarskap och hur det vardagliga ledarskapet uppfattas bland medarbetarna inom den offentliga sektorn. Metoden som har använts i denna studie är en kvalitativ empirisk ansats, närmare bestämt semistrukturerade intervjuer med tio medarbetare inom Borås stad där hälften av undersökningspersonerna har en manlig- respektive kvinnlig ledare. Resultat: Resultatet av den empiriska studien tyder på att det föreligger en samstämmighet hos medarbetare inom Borås Stad gällande hur de upplever det vardagliga ledarskapet. Det insamlade materialet har analyserats utifrån ledarskapsteorier, transformativt ledarskap, medarbetarskap och genusperspektiv. Slutsats: I den utvalda organisationen inom den offentliga sektorn i Borås Stad är medarbetarna överlag mycket nöjda med hur det vardagliga ledarskapet utförs i praktiken. Medarbetarna inom Borås Stad anser att det inte förekommer större skillnader hur medarbetarna uppfattar det vardagliga ledarskapet, beroende på om medarbetarna innehar manliga eller kvinnliga ledare. Medarbetarna är tillfredsställda med hur organisationen arbetar med involvering av medarbetare men att det finns potential till förbättring vid större organisationsförändringar. / Background and problem: The study intends to investigate how everyday leadership is perceived by employees within the Borås Stad.
