Väliesimiehen johtamiskompetenssi ja niiden kehittäminen : myymäläpäälliköiden kokemuksia
2015
Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää väliesimiestason myymäläpäälliköiden kokemuksia käyttämistään johtamiskompetensseista, sekä kuvata työssä kohdattuja haastetilanteita, joissa näitä kompetensseja hyödynnetään. Lisäksi tutkimuksessa pyrittiin selvittämään myymäläpäälliköiden kokemuksia siitä, miten organisaation sisäinen esimieskoulutus kehitti näitä johtamisen kompetensseja. Tutkimusta esimiesten kompetensseista on paljon, mutta kaupanalan esimiesten osaamiseen ja sen kehittämiseen ei olla aiemmin keskitytty ja näin tutkimus eroaa kontekstillaan aiemmista esimiestason kompetenssitutkimuksista. Kohdeorganisaation myymäläpäälliköille tutkimus antoi mahdollisuuden reflektoida ja tu…
Co-dynamics in engendering innovations through collaborative leadership - A complexity-based approach
2013
The paper presents ten co-dynamics that are supposed to be those underlying forces and powers that bring about an innovation creation process. The co-dynamics as unpredictable movements have been found by a Grounded Theory approach from two large-scale data. Parts of the other data serve here as the empirical source. In order to comprehend the nature of the co-dynamic, the notion of collaborative leadership is exploited. It includes both human participants and tangible elements, such as activities, practices, measures, or tools when synergy is gained. Collaborative leadership is supposed to be, at the same time, both the very source and the result of the dynamical movements. nonPeerReviewed
3D Visualization of Engendering Collaborative Leadership in the Space
2011
The paper focuses on collaborative leadership in education and how to illustrate its engendering process in a three-dimensional space. This complex and fluid process is examined as distributed and pedagogical within a large Finnish vocational upper secondary educational organization. As a consequence, the notion of distributed pedagogical leadership is used when collaborative leadership in education is studied. Collaborative leadership is argued to consist of the innermost substance of a professional learning community, as characteristics or qualities of a group of people working together for specific purposes. Therefore, collaborative leadership naturally involves actors, activities, and c…
