More is more? : Forest management allocation at different spatial scales to mitigate conflicts between ecosystem services

2017

Context: Multi-objective management can mitigate conflicts among land-use objectives. However, the effectiveness of a multi-objective solution depends on the spatial scale at which land-use is optimized. This is because the ecological variation within the planning region influences the potential for site-specific prioritization according to the different objectives. Objectives: We optimized the allocation of forest management strategies to maximize the joint production of two conflicting objectives, timber production and carbon storage, at increasing spatial scales. We examined the impacts of the extent of the planning region on the severity of the conflict, the potential for its mitigation…

Counter-Clock World: How Planning Backwards Helps in Moving Forward in Collapsing Environments

2021

Research on corporate decline and turnarounds as well as the strategic use of history have so far remained two separate research fields. We integrate these two fields with a thought experiment, proposing ways in which strategists can work with, and through time in managing and turning around declines. Our thought experiment involves two very different types of analogies: a textual one from Philip K. Dick’s science fiction novels, on the one hand, and a visual one from Einsteinian relativity science, on the other hand. Inspired and informed by these different conceptualizations of the past and time, we develop four forms of backward strategizing to successfully manage a struggling corporatio…

A Framework for a Smart City Design : Digital Transformation in the Helsinki Smart City

2019

Recently, there has been substantial interest in the concept of a smart city, as it has been a viable solution to the dilemmas created by the urbanization of cities. Digital technologies—such as Internet-of-Things, artificial intelligence, big data, and geospatial technologies—are closely associated with the concept of a smart city. By means of modern digital technologies, cities aim to optimize their performance and services. Further, cities actively endorse modern digital technologies to foster digitalization and the emergence of data-based innovations and a knowledge economy. In this paper, a framework for a smart city design is presented. The framework considers a smart city from the pe…

Case study research : a theoretical overview, systematic review & analytical examination regarding Rosenzweig's delusions

2015

This master’s thesis will introduce the case study method from various perspectives. In order to carry out a systematic review and an analytical examination regarding Rosenzweig’s delusion the paper provides firstly a comprehensive introduction about the case study method from a theoretical viewpoint. In this context the current opinion, challenges, and available designs are reflected in great detail. By doing so a knowledgeable foundation is created, as several renowned researchers’ concepts and opinions are inte- grated. The theoretical chapter demonstrates various developments of the case study method, which have promoted this scientific approach. The focus of this paper lies on analysin…

Interactive decision support and trade-off analysis for sustainable forest landscape planning under deep uncertainty

2022

Sustainable environmental management often involves long-term time horizons and multiple conflicting objectives and, by nature, is affected by different sources of uncertainty. Many sources of uncertainty, such as climate change or government policies, cannot be addressed using probabilistic models, and, therefore, they can be seen to contain deep uncertainty. In this setting, the variety of possible future states is represented as a set of scenarios lacking any information about the likelihood of occurring. Integrating deep uncertainty into multiobjective decision support increases complexity, calling for the elaboration of appropriate methods and tools. This paper proposes a novel intera…

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…

A Practical Approach to EA Planning and Development: the EA Management Grid

2004

Enterprise Architecture is gaining interest as a managerial tool for managing corporate ICT assets and their interplay. Our prior studies indicate that an ICT provider’s viewpoint on EA consulting, planning and development seems to be lacking in the proposed methodologies. Considering both literature and practical EA cases, we suggest an approach that supports restricted assignments in EA management. We present an EA Grid for the management of EA descriptions, requirements, constraints, as well as project tasks and deliverables, task preliminaries and dependencies in EA consulting and development. peerReviewed

Strategic leadership in cyber security, case Finland

2020

Cyber security has become one of the biggest priorities for businesses and governments. Streamlining and strengthening strategic leadership are key aspects in making sure the cyber security vision is achieved. The strategic leadership of cyber security implies identifying and setting goals based on the protection of the digital operating environment. Furthermore, it implies coordinating actions and preparedness as well as managing extensive disruptions. The aim of this article is to define what is strategic leadership of cyber security and how it is implemented as part of the comprehensive security model in Finland. In terms of effective strategic leadership of cyber security, it is vital t…

To be or not to be: Collaborative Governance and The Case of Continuous Master Planning in Lahti

2020

The benefits of collaborative actions between different stakeholders has been recognized broadly and has been admitted as one of the key factors in regional development. However, the research has so far focused on examining cases retrospectively, leaving a gap in looking into something on-going and uncertain, as well as it has been common to consider regional development through abstracts concepts. Therefore, there exists less information on the practical implementation of the theories and policies within regions. Additionally, it is important to take into consideration the ever-growing trend of cross-sectoral collaboration - however not only in public-private interface, but also involving …
