Samfunnsansvar, veldedighet og omdømme : en studie av samfunnsansvar som veldedighet i Capgemini Norge
2016
Masteroppgave samfunnskommunikasjon- Universitetet i Agder, 2016 I denne studien undersøkes det hva bedriftens samfunnsansvar er, og hvorfor Capgemini Norge engasjerer seg i bedriftens samfunnsansvar. Som teoretisk rammeverk har jeg benyttet meg av sentral litteratur på fagområdene samfunnsansvar, veldedighet, strategisk samfunnsansvar og omdømme. Spesielt sentral i samfunnsansvarsdebatten står økonomen Archie B. Carroll og hans forklaring på hva bedrifters samfunnsansvar innebærer. Om samfunnsansvar i Norge baserer oppgaven seg i stor grad på perspektivene til Ditlev- Simonsen og Midttun (2010). Teoriene som presenteres er ment å brukes til å få i gang en fruktbar diskusjon av problemstill…
School Staff-centered School Development by Communicative Action: Working Methods for Creating Collective Responsibility - From the Idea to Action
2020
School development is often seen as a concerted (re-)action to educational policies, curriculum development, and change in education laws or regulations, and sometimes, as stakeholders’ reactions to low school performance. Generally, school development incorporates organizational, managerial, and educational activities and measures. This is done to adapt to the new situation to achieve the desired changes and goals initiated by a given curriculum reform. In contrast, this paper focuses on school staff–driven development: It describes how teachers together with paraprofessionals contribute to school-development. Using collective responsibility creating working methods of communication, the e…
Organisational Challenges for School Development and Improvement : The Obstructing Role of Sub-Groups and an Overly Positive School Culture
2020
The purpose of this study has been to identify and analyse obstacles embedded in the school organisation that impede organisational development and improvement. The general findings show that the school structure comprised sub-groups and had characteristics of a diversified organisation. This led to dysfunctional discussions that challenged school development and improvement. Second, the findings revealed that the nature of the school culture may challenge school development processes. Positive features of the school culture, such as engagement, good relationships and high self-esteem might deter the effectiveness of the schools, e.g. the schools’ ability to prioritise and improve the pupil…

2020
Lai izpētītu skolotāju zināšanu, komforta izjūtas un attieksmes pret seksuālo izglītību (SI) saistību ar pārliecību par spēju veikt SI tika veikts korelatīvi aprakstošs pētījums. Latvijas pamatskolas skolotāji (N=73) aizpildīja attieksmes pret SI, komforta izjūtas mācīt SI, pārliecības par savām spējām veikt SI aptaujas un zināšanu testu par seksuālo un reproduktīvo veselību. Nav atrasta statistiski nozīmīga saistība starp skolotāju attieksmi pret SI un pārliecību par savām spējām veikt SI. Komforta izjūta mācīt SI ir pozitīvi cieši saistīta ar pārliecību par savām spējām veikt SI un izskaidro 59% no tās variācijas. Skolotāju zināšanas ir pozitīvi vidēji cieši saistītas ar komforta izjūtu m…

An Examination of the Relationship Between Coaches’ Transformational Leadership and Athletes’ Personal and Group Characteristics in Elite Youth Soccer
2021
There is a growing body of the literature highlighting the positive impact of transformational leadership behaviours across contexts, including sport. However, there is a lack of knowledge of this relationship within elite sport settings. Thus, the purpose of the present study was to examine the relationship between elite youth athletes’ perceptions of coaches’ transformational coaching-behaviours and variables that have been linked to transformational leadership in other settings (i.e., group cohesion, motivational climate, self-regulation of learning and athlete satisfaction). Norwegian elite youth soccer players (n= 753) selected into the national talent development program completed que…

2019
Master's thesis Innovative governance and public management ME523 - University of Agder 2019 A break first from Traditional Public Administration (TPA) and later New Public Management (NPM) has gradually offered new angles to the governance. For instance, Moorecreated an analogue to the private value creation,and as a result, the ideology of public value creation has emerged worldwide.Since then, scholars have developed a conceptual understanding of public value. Compared to the NPM public value management embraces post-competitive achievements and broader governmental goals. Yet, the empirical research on public value management, especially in the Finnish context, is rather unknown.This st…
