Realisation of strategic leadership in leadership teams' work as experienced by the leadership team members of basic education schools
2013
This article introduces a quantitative research into how the leadership team members of 49 basic education schools in the city of Vantaa, Finland, experienced the realisation of strategic leadership in their leadership teams' work. The data were collected by a survey of 24 statements, rated on a five-point Likert scale, and analysed with the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The only variant explaining the differences in experiencing the realisation of strategic leadership in the leadership teams' work statistically, almost significantly, was the leadership team membership.

La pubblica amministrazione e l’etica delle istituzioni pubbliche: la questione dei codici di comportamento
2022
Public employees are bound to comply with specific duties and rules of conduct that broaden their sphere of esponsibility compared to that of ordinary citizens. The ethics of public institutions is crucial for the development and interpretation of the duties and behaviours established by the code of conduct. Accordingly, it is interesting to explore the possibility of enhancing the moral characteristics of the subjects called to perform a public function considering the Aretaic theory. In the Italian context this theory appears decidedly in line with both the constitutional provision that identifies law as a social practice and the ideal of the rule of law. A key element of the Aretaic theo…
Los beneficios del mar: negocios e inversiones económicas de la oficialidad naval en el siglo XVIII
2019
Throughout the eighteenth century, the Spanish navy was extensively reformed and enhanced as a consequence of the new model of Monarchy that the Bourbons introduced. Among the measures adopted, it is remarkable the erection of the naval officers corps according to the needs and obligations that maritime war had in this century. This group becomes the paradigm of the new professionalization and new training approach, and its members had great relevance due to its great mobility around the empire and the power of the naval institution. This means that a part of the naval officers were placed in privileged positions and at the intersection of diverse political, social and economic networks. Th…
Recruitments in Finnish universities: practicing strategic or pathetic HRM?
2016
Recruitment is a core instrument in the academic labour market. This article takes the perspective of the organisation − here, the university − on recruitment. Universities’ personnel policies and practises are shifting from legally oriented personnel administration to more strategic human resource management (HRM). In Nordic countries, this shift is partly driven by the changing status of higher education institutions from state-governed bureaus to more autonomous institutions. This article provides insight into this transition, using Finland as a case example of higher education systems that have undergone drastic reform, moving from a civil servant model to autonomous personnel policy. D…
Reducción de la contaminación por hongos toxigénicos y micotoxinas en alimentos mediante el uso de isotiocianatos
2019
El crecimiento de hongos es una de las causas más habituales del deterioro de los alimentos. Productos como los cereales, el pan y sus derivados son especialmente susceptibles ser contaminados con hongos toxigénicos y/o micotoxinas, lo que supone un problema de seguridad alimentaria. Por ello en la presente Tesis Doctoral se han estudiado la presencia de micotoxinas en 60 muestras de masas de pizza refrigeradas y el riesgo de exposición de la población a estos compuestos. Se detectaron aflatoxinas (AFs), zearalenona (ZEA), eniatinas (ENs) y beauvericina (BEA) en el 50, 100, 100 y 3 % respectivamente. Aunque el riesgo de exposición fue moderado, el 12 % de las muestras superaba los límites m…
The Agency and Practical Learning of a Lay Advocate in Seventeenth-Century Helsinki : The Case of Gabriel Abrahamsson
2018
This chapter discusses seventeenth-century Sweden, where academically trained advocates and procurators emerged but attempts of advocacy monopoly failed. The case of Gabriel Abrahamsson—a son of a pastor, a former cavalryman and farmer, and, later on, a lower-level civil servant in Helsinki—proves that no specific privileged status or academic education was needed for advocacy in lower courts. The tradition to use any reasonable man as a legal representative continued, and trusted men from various social backgrounds with self-acquired legal skills acted as lay advocates. Gabriel learned law by doing. His voluminous private and office litigation enabled him to act increasingly as a legal rep…
