Pedagogisen johtajuuden tukeminen varhaiskasvatuksessa : varhaiskasvatusyksikön johtajien näkemyksiä Deep Talk - työyhteisön kehittämismenetelmästä

2016

Mesiäislehto, Eveliina. 2016. Pedagogisen johtajuuden tukeminen varhaiskasvatuksessa – Varhaiskasvatusyksikön johtajien näkemyksiä Deep Talk - työyhteisön kehittämismenetelmästä. Varhaiskasvatustieteen pro gradu - tutkielma. Jyväskylän yliopisto. Kasvatustieteiden laitos. 62 sivua. Varhaiskasvatusyksikön johtajien työmäärä on lisääntynyt merkittävästi yksiköiden koon kasvamisen ja erilaisten organisaatiomuutosten takia. Johtajilla ei enää välttämättä ole vastuuta lapsiryhmästä, vaan vastuu keskittyy yksikön henkilöstöön. Näin ollen pedagogiikan johtamisen rinnalla tulee puhua pedagogisesta johtajuudesta. Arvot toimivat sekä pedagogisen johtajuuden että uudenlaisen työyhteisön kehittämismene…

Does job design make workers happy?

2019

Using linked employer‐employee data for Finland we examine associations between job design, employee well‐being and job‐related stress. Three key findings stand out. First, in accordance with the theory of Karasek and Karasek and Theorell, job control and supervisory support are positively correlated with employee well‐being and negatively correlated with job‐related stress. Second, as predicted by theory, job demands are positively correlated with job‐related stress. Third, there is no association between job demands and employee well‐being and, contrary to expectations, neither job control nor supervisory support alleviate the negative relationship between job demands and job‐related stre…

Strateginen henkilöstöjohtaminen pienessä kunnassa

2016

Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli selvittää strategisen henkilöstöjohtamisen juurtumista pienen kunnan henkilöstöjohtamiseen sekä määrittää tapausorganisaation henkilöstöjohtamisen strategisuuden kehitystaso. Tutkimuksen teoreettisena viitekehyksenä toimii strateginen henkilöstöjohtaminen sekä henkilöstöjohtamisen strategisuuden kehitysportaikkomalli. Tutkimus on luonteeltaan laadullinen tapaustutkimus ja empiirinen aineisto kerättiin teemahaastatteluiden avulla haastattelemalla kahdeksaa Suonenjoen kaupungin lähiesimiestä. Haastatteluaineisto analysoitiin teemoittelua ja sisällönanalyysia yhdistämällä. Teemoittelun pohjana olevat pääteemat nostettiin teoreettisesta viitekehyksestä. Tämän l…

This study examines conflicts related to HRM in Finnish project-based companies and provides new information on the implications of conflicts in HRM practices for theorists and practitioners. The research was conducted qualitatively using content and thematic analysis. The findings suggest that conflicts framed within HRM practices are generally the result of the practices and expectations of the organization and ma…

HR scenario game : Learning human resource management in a virtual environment

2021

This paper introduces a computer-based online scenario game that was developed to enhance the learning of human resource management (HRM) in an undergraduate course at a business school in Finland. What makes this game unique is that students played an important and active role in developing the game in collaboration with lecturers. Our findings show that the game enhances learning, interaction, and collaboration among students. We discuss how computer-based games and their development in collaboration with students can be used as a means for learning and improving working-life skills in higher education.

Supporting Creativity and Learning at Work : Practices and Structures from Growth Companies

2021

The constant change embedded in contemporary working life requires employees and organisations alike to continuously learn and, simultaneously, adapt and be creative. The potential to attract, manage and engage creative people, as well as support learning, has become increasingly important in organisational contexts. It is essential to recognise what the underlying learning theories are and how they connect with the current understanding of creativity. It is also important to study different manifestations of creativity and learning and reactively and proactively discover ways of supporting and developing both aspects in contemporary organisations. In this chapter, we first present our appr…

Big data and HR analytics in the digital era

2019

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to focus on how the HR function takes advantage of human resource analytics (HRA), including big data (BD), and discuss factors hindering HRA and data utilization. Moreover, the authors discuss the implications of the HRA-induced role transformation of the human resource (HR) function. Design/methodology/approach This is an explorative case study based on qualitative interviews in nine leading Finnish companies. Findings The results indicate that both technical and human obstacles, operating with very basic HR processes and traditional information systems and poor data quality, hinder adoption of advanced HRA. This, combined with lacking skills in analy…
