Shall we follow? Impact of reputation concern on information security managers’ investment decisions
2020
Information security (infosec) is important for organizations. While budgeting for infosec is a crucial resource allocation decision, infosec managers may choose to follow other fellow experts’ recommendations or baseline practices. The present paper uses reputational herding theory to explain the decision made by infosec managers to use a “let's follow others” strategy in this context. Based on a sample of 106 organizations in Finland, we find that infosec managers’ ability to accurately predict the benefit of infosec investment, as well as their reputations, have significant effects on motivating them to discount their own information. Infosec managers’ discounting of their own informatio…
Changes in Physical Activity, Motor Performance, and Psychosocial Determinants of Active Behavior in Children : A Pilot School-Based Obesity Program
2020
The obesity epidemic and the decline of fitness among children highlights the need for suitable interventions designed to promote Physical Activity (PA) and healthy habits. The purpose of our pilot study was to assess the feasibility of a school-based program among overweight and obese children, by examining changes in their body composition, PA, physical fitness, and some psychosocial determinants of active behavior. An additional objective was to investigate the reciprocal relationship over time between PA and body image. Self-reported PA and health-related fitness tests were administered to 18 overweight and obese children (11.3 ± 0.4 years), before and after a 6-month intervention inclu…
Operations & Maintenance Business Model Transformation—Multiple Case Studies
2014
Capital goods companies’ service offering has been mainly to provide spare parts and maintenance work. In search of growth, these companies have expanded to new areas, such as Operations & Maintenance. Instead of operating and maintaining e.g. production processes itself, a customer can outsource a wide variety of managed services based on agreed service levels. There has been a special focus on global information management know-how, governance, process know-how, physical assets, and spare and wear parts. In order to get a good coverage of case studies, we selected five large global suppliers and two customer companies in telecommunication, energy, mining, and pulp and paper business. By i…
The roles of the state and social licence to operate? Lessons from nuclear waste management in Finland, France, and Sweden
2019
The concept of social licence to operate (SLO) is an increasingly popular tool for companies to manage their relations with the local communities. SLO is very seldom used in the nuclear sector, which has nevertheless applied similar approaches, under notions such as partnership and participatory governance. This article explores the specific challenges that the application of SLO faces in the nuclear waste management (NWM) sector, by applying an often-used SLO framework of Boutilier and Thomson to illustrative case studies concerning nuclear waste repository projects in Finland, France and Sweden. Among the specificities of this sector, the article focuses on the central roles of the state …

Työn hallintamahdollisuuksien ja sosiaalisen tuen suorat ja puskuroivat yhteydet työntekijän koettuun hyvinvointiin : Karasekin mallin tarkastelua su…
2014
Tutkielmassani tarkasteltiin työn hallintamahdollisuuksien ja sosiaalisen tuen suoria sekä puskuroivia yhteyksiä työntekijän koettuun hyvinvointiin, kun hyvinvoinnin mittareina olivat psyykkinen sekä somaattinen oireilu. Tutkielmassani haluttiin myös selvittää, onko sukupuolella merkitystä sille, miten työn hallintamahdollisuudet ja sosiaalinen tuki ovat yhteydessä työntekijän koettuun hyvinvointiin (sukupuoli yhteyksiä muuntavana tekijänä). Tutkielman teoreettisena näkökulmana oli Robert Kara-sekin työn vaatimusten, työn hallinnan sekä sosiaalisen tuen malli eli ns. JDCS-malli. Tämän tutki-muksen aineisto kerättiin elektronisella kyselylomakkeella vuonna 2008 Suomen Akatemian rahoitta-mass…
Intersectoral partnerships and competencies for mental health promotion: a Delphi-based qualitative study in Finland.
2021
Summary The importance of intersectoral collaboration and partnership working in mental health promotion, together with the requisite competencies for effective collaboration, is widely acknowledged. This Delphi-based qualitative study examined how intersectoral collaboration and partnership work are constructed and adopted in mental health promotion practice. Descriptive data from a Delphi panel of mental health promotion practitioners working in the health sector (n = 32) were used as a data source. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data. Applying the theory of collaborative advantage, eight themes of collaboration advantage and the related competencies were identified: management…
Yliopiston suuntaa etsimässä
2022
Vuoden 2010 alussa toteutettu Suomen yliopistokenttää ravistellut yliopistouudistus aiheutti aikanaan kiivasta keskustelua. Yhtäältä uudistusta puolustettiin vetoamalla yliopistojen autonomian lisääntymiseen ja kilpailukyvyn parantumiseen, toisaalta uudistus nähtiin yliopistodemokratian horjuttamisena ja keskitetyn ylhäältä alaspäin suuntautuvan top-down-hallinnon lisääntymisenä. Professori Thomas Wilhelmsson toimi uudistuksen aikana Helsingin yliopiston rehtorina ja hänen muistelmansa sekä arvionsa koskien yliopistouudistusta on julkaistu Gaudeamukselta. Kirja tarjoaa sisäpiirin perspektiivin yliopistouudistukseen ja tekee kiinnostavan syväluotauksen yhden keskeisimmän yliopistouudistuksen…
