Conflicts related to Human Resource Management in Finnish Project-Based Companies
2020
In contemporary working life of Nordic countries, employee involvement and well-being are emphasized and organizational functions and demands are continuously changing. Thus, the study of human resource management (HRM) practices and their consequences for employees is relevant. 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…
Uncertainty in information system development: Causes, effects, and coping mechanisms
2020
Information system development (ISD) projects are an ever-growing field of project management (PM) with their unique features, and project failures in ISD are relatively common. In the broader context of PM, uncertainty is a studied, yet mercurial phenomenon. By contrast, uncertainty in ISD projects has received relatively little attention from scholars, and PM literature has not systematically focused on uncertainty in ISD from a viewpoint other than that of project managers. In order to understand uncertainties in ISD projects, we need to first understand the causes behind them, their effects on everyday ISD work, and share coping mechanisms utilized among industry professionals. In the c…
Projekteilla parempaa laatua yliopistoihin?
2005
Markkinatalousvetoisen kulttuurin soveltaminen yliopistoihin ei ole ongelmatonta. Erilaiset laadun kohottamisen nimissä tehtävät kehittämishankkeet ilmentävät markkinataloustumista keskusjohtoisina ja nopeatempoisina. Onnistuessaan kehittämishanke luo perustan aidoille uudistuksille.
Projektiopiskelu ja -oppiminen ammattikorkeakoulussa
2001
Projektityöskentely on yksi näkyvä ja yhä laajemmin käytetty pedagoginen ratkaisu koulutuksen ja työelämän yhteistyölle ammattikorkeakoulussa. Projekteilla vastataan työelämän kehittämistarpeisiin. Ne ovat samanaikaisesti opetusmenetelmiä, opiskelumenetelmiä, opiskelun substanssia sekä työelämän ja työelämäyhteistyön kehittämisen välineitä. Pirkko Vesterisen väitöstutkimuksessa on selvitetty projektiopiskelun ongelmia pedagogian (oppiminen ja projektiopiskelun ohjaaminen) sekä osaamisen tuottamisen näkökulmasta. Tutkimuksen päätulos on aineiston pohjalta luotu projektipedagogiikan malli, jonka tarkoitus on jäsentää ja tukea projektiopiskelun oppimis-ohjausprosessia. Mallin avulla projektiop…
The Role of Anticipatory Emotions and their Contagiousness in an IS Project
2020
The previous research has shown increasing interest in understanding anticipatory emotions and their contagion, which can happen in dyads or groups as well as in other settings in organizations. The role of anticipatory emotions and their behavioral effects remain unexplored in IS projects. To address the research gap, we conducted a qualitative and longitudinal case study in order to understand what arethe role and consequences of the anticipatory emotions in IS project work, and how their contagiousness emerges over time. Adopting a model of group emotional contagion as a theoretical lens provided us with an opportunity to explain the relationship between anticipatory emotions and emotion…
