Exploring Enterprise Risk Management: A Case Study with a Global Manufacturer of High Technology Products with Operations in Sweden

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how Enterprise Risk Management (ERM), with an emphasis on risk aggregation, is conducted in practice. The thesis starts with a scoping study to review available literature on ERM. The findings from the scoping study show that literature focus on how ERM impacts certain financial variables, e.g. return on assets, return on equity, and firm value of organ

Stratigraphy and palaeoenvironment of the early Jurassic volcaniclastic strata at Djupadalsmölla, central Skåne, Sweden

Av de nästan 200 blottningarna av vulkaniska bergarter som kan ses i Central Skåne Volcanic Province (CSVP) består endast tre av vulkanoklastiskt material. Stratigrafin i dessa avlagringar vars förhållande till underliggande urberg har för första gången beskrivits i en borrkärna (KBH2) från Djupadalsmölla för att bestämma stratigrafin samt avsättningsprocessen, åldern och avsättningsmiljön. BorrkäFrom the almost 200 volcanic outcrops in the Central Skåne Volcanic Province (CSVP), only three are of volcaniclastic material. These volcanoclastics, and the transition to the underlying crystalline basement, have been investigated for the first time in a drill core (KBH2) from Djupadalsmölla in order to understand the stra-tigraphy, depositional process, age of deposition, and depositional envir

Job Satisfaction of Full-Time Employees versus Part-Time Student Employees: A Case Study of a Swedish Staffing and Recruitment Company

Job satisfaction is a complex concept that has mainly been investigated in a quantitative nature from several perspectives. Most past studies have focused solely on investigating full-time employees quantitatively, without taking into account other employment types such as part-time student employees, or other methods of data collection. Additionally, a lack of studies exist focusing on comparing

Understanding Managerial Boundary Work in Multi-Actor Cross-Sectoral Collaborations - An Analysis of Project Managers of an Innovation Company in Sweden

The purpose of this study is to examine how innovation project managers enact boundary work to facilitate knowledge sharing and development in multi-actor cross-sectoral collaboration projects. A specific focus is thereby dedicated to the investigation of micro- processes of managerial boundary work happening within the project space. The theoretical ground for our research is provided by literatu

The WOW-effect. A qualitative content analysis of communication strategies used by the Swedish music festival Way out West

I dagens samhälle finns en allt större press på varumärken att stå ut ur mediebruset samt att kommunicera kring hållbarhet och CSR. Detta gör brandingstrategier högst nödvändiga, trots detta är det ännu ett relativt outforskat område inom marknadsföring av evenemang. Tidigare forskning visar på studier baserade på konsumentens perspektiv samt under tiden av det faktiska evenemanget. Däremot är forIn today’s society, brands face pressure to stand out and to communicate about sustainability and CSR efforts. This makes branding strategies necessary, yet it is a rather unexplored area within marketing of events. Previous research of events shows studies from the consumer’s perspective based on when the event takes place. However, less focus is put on how event brands engage the audience before

Using LSTM for predictions of the regulating direction on the Swedish electricity intraday market

Electricity price prediction is increasingly important as the prices become more volatile due to the expan- sion of weather-dependent renewable electricity sources. The electricity market of focus in this thesis is the Nord pool intraday market and the regulating prices occurring on it. For actors trading on the intra- day market increased volatility implies greater risks since the regulating pric

Emission factors and methods used in climate impact assessments of energy use in Swedish heated buildings - Assessing district heating and electricity as energy source

When the property- and building industry moves towards new solutions targeting reduced climate impact, this puts pressure on the building owners and companies to calculate the climate impact of buildings. It may seem easy, but there are various methods and guidelines to navigate around. This study addressed the issue of which emission factors for district heating and electricity are used in climat

Towards low carbon buildings: A case study in Sweden

This study comprehensively evaluated the global warming potential of an office building in a newly built Scandinavian neighbourhood seeking to reach sustainability. The primary objective of the research was to support the city authorities of Helsingborg by providing valuable insights into actual carbon emissions at the building level and proposing measures to minimize these emissions to achieve cl

“One can imagine one’s making a conscious choice” : AI and algorithmic awareness among Swedish public librarians

I denna uppsats ger jag en inblick i hur bibliotekarier på folkbibliotek uppfattar, förstår och interagerar med algoritmer och AI i relation till sitt yrke. Mitt främsta fokus ligger på hur bibliotekariernas uppfattningar av algoritmer och AI i slutändan formar deras handlingar. För att uppnå detta syfte tar jag min utgångspunkt i deras personliga syn på algoritmer och AI. Materialet för denna uppIn this thesis I provide insight into how librarians at public libraries perceive, understand, and interact with algorithms and AI in relation to their profession. My main focus lies in how librarians’ perceptions of algorithms and AI ultimately shape their actions. To achieve this aim I take my starting point from their privately held views of algorithms and AI. The material for the thesis is gat

Two strategies for gender-neutral anti-fashion: A case study of Swedish and Belarusian designer collections

This paper examines the emergence of gender-neutral clothing, particularly during the period of 2015-2016 when there was a notable increase in interest surrounding the concepts of gender-neutrality and androgyny in fashion. The objective of this paper is to contribute new research to the field, as there is a lack of specific studies on gender-neutral clothing. To achieve this, the paper conducts i

Leading ‘The’ healthcare revolution in Sweden

This paper aims to contribute to the growing literature on leadership by presenting an empirical (nurse’s) view of leadership interpretation in the health sector. Furthermore, the nurse’s view on leadership will be compared to the presented transformational leadership (TL) in change models. Ultimately, this will result in the presentation of matches and mismatches between the reality of the nurse’

How do fires affect the railway? - A Swedish study on what factors influence fire risk and how it affects railway traffic.

Några utav de vanligaste orsakerna till att en brand uppkom mellan 2010 och 2020 var ”bränder som medvetet startades” samt ”bränder som startats av gnistor vid tågbromsning”. Av den totala mängden bränder som uppkom stod tågbromsning för cirka 1.1 % av dem och den anledning som stod för absolut störst andel bränder var ”bränder startade utav okänd anledning” vilket stod för 43%. KlimatförändringaForest fires can start in a variety of ways. "Fires started deliberately" and "fires started by sparks generated from a train braking" were two of the most common causes of fires between 2010 and 2020. Train braking accounted for 1.1% of all fires, whereas fires created by unknown reasons accounted for 43% of all fires. The climate is expected to change in the future, and sinc

The present study explores the value and role of the physical space of the public library from the perspective of the visitors in the context of digitalization. The qualitative research was based on semi-structured interviews with regular visitors of Idé A Drottninghög (Helsingborg, Sweden), Idé A library staff members, and collaborative organizations of Idé A that make use of the library’s physic

Adapting Household Energy Consumption: How Consumers in Germany and Sweden Managed the European Energy Crisis

Residential energy consumption in Europe is unsustainable, relying heavily on fossil fuels and contributing to climate change. The European energy crisis, as a naturally occurring experiment, disrupted energy consumption in households due to drastically increased prices and raised public awareness while creating a unique opportunity to study the dynamics of change in household energy consumption.
