Automatic image-based identification and biomass estimation of invertebrates

2020

1. Understanding how biological communities respond to environmental changes is a key challenge in ecology and ecosystem management. The apparent decline of insect populations necessitates more biomonitoring but the time-consuming sorting and expert-based identification of taxa pose strong limitations on how many insect samples can be processed. In turn, this affects the scale of efforts to map and monitor invertebrate diversity altogether. Given recent advances in computer vision, we propose to enhance the standard human expert-based identification approach involving manual sorting and identification with an automatic image-based technology. 2. We describe a robot-enabled image-based ident…

Organisaatiomuutoskeskustelu suomalaisten talouslehtien sivuilla

2016

Muutoksen hyväksyminen on organisaatioiden selviytymisen kannalta hyvin tärkeää erityisesti nykyaikana, sillä muutos on tullut pysyväksi osaksi organisaatioiden arki-päivää. Tämän tutkielman tavoitteena on käsitteellistää muutos, jotta muutoksesta voidaan luoda eheä ja yhtenäinen kokonaisuus. Tutkielma koostuu muutoksen, muutosjohtamisen ja muutosviestinnän tarkastelusta laadullisen sisällönanalyysin kautta. Tutkielmassa on rakennettu teoreettinen viitekehys muutokselle Harvardin yliopiston professorin, John Kotterin, kahdeksan vaiheisen suunnitellun muutoksen teoriaan pohjautuen. Teoreettisen viitekehyksen sopivuutta nykyaikana vallitsevaan muutoskeskusteluun on analysoitu suomalaisten tal…

Change Talk in Hospital Management Groups

2020

Recent national healthcare reforms have resulted in many changes to healthcare organizations. When social realities are enacted in social interactions, changes also occur in communication through discourses. In public hospitals, middle management groups form one important platform for change talk. This study aimed to identify and understand how change talk emerges in management group meetings. Data were collected from 10 hospital meetings, and change-related interactions were explored by analyzing sensemaking and positioning. In the data, change talk took three forms: collaboration, control and confrontation. These forms consisted of change discourses (change as a possibility, concealed cha…

University-wide, top-down curriculum reform at a Finnish university: perceptions of the academic staff

2021

This study examines academic staff’s perceptions of a university-wide, top-down curriculum reform in terms of the management of the reform, the support provided by the university’s administration, and the utilisation of the university’s guidelines. Differences between faculties are also scrutinised. The study was conducted at a multidisciplinary public research university in Finland using the survey method. The data (n = 394) consisted of academic staff’s responses to multiple-choice and open-ended questions. Correlation coefficients, exploratory factor analyses, and a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were utilised to analyse the quantitative data. Responses to the open-ended questions …

A Qualitative Study on the Categorisation and Prioritisation of Digital Competencies and Attitudes for Managers and Employees

2021

Digital transformation is a mega-trend and is perceived by many companies as an opportunity to remain competitive. The digital competencies and digital mindset of managers and employees play an important role. Without new competencies and changed attitudes, the transformation cannot be driven forward. Research on digital transformation competencies in the field of companies is limited and little evidence exists on which digital competencies, and skills are particularly important for companies. In this study, a systematic literature review was used to identify digital competencies and attitudes and classify them into six categories. With a focus group discussion, four digitalisation experts …

Antenarratives in Ongoing Strategic Change : Using the Story Index to Capture Daunting and Optimistic Futures

2018

Strategic organizational change is a complex, future-oriented phenomenon that is critical for any organization. Traditional means of inquiry have struggled with the difficulty of capturing the future; thus, the methods for managing things to come remain scarce. In this chapter, we contribute to managing strategic change, and thereby the future of the organization, by developing the Story Index (SIX) method. The method facilitates a better understanding of how organizational change takes shape in the discursive reality before materializing in concrete terms. SIX is an analytical process combining antenarratives and narrative rationality to reveal the emerging meanings and rationales of chang…

Organisaatio muutoksessa: työntekijöiden, keskijohdon ja ylimmän johdon kokemuksia muutosprosessista

2016

Tämän pro gradu tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on ollut tutkia erään kansainvälisen konsernin Suomen yksikön toiminto-osaston rakenteellista muutosta ja sen vaikutuksia. Mielenkiinnon kohteena tutkimuksessa on ollut kuulla ihmisiä heidän kokemuksistaan muutoksessa. Tutkimus on toteutettu haastattelemalla kohdeyrityksen henkilökuntaa. Työntekijätaso sekä keskijohto haastateltiin ryhmähaastatteluin ja ylin johto yksilöhaastatteluin. Yhteensä ryhmähaastatteluihin osallistui 37 henkilöä, joista 26 työntekijäpuolen haastatteluihin ja 11 keskijohdon haastatteluihin. Yksilöhaastatteluja oli kolme kappaletta. Haastateltavat kokivat, että muutoksen toteutuksessa olisi ollut parantamisen varaa niin suunni…
