This study investigates the cross-cultural communication challenges between the Swedish managers and their local employees from the perspectives of Swedish managers in Burmese and Vietnamese organisations. It adopts mixed models in which it embraces, both, the deductive and inductive approaches. The deductive study was conducted to derive the Swedish managers’ perceptions of the cultural dimension

Föreliggande uppsats kommer att undersöka hur regionen tillika staden Kaliningrad – idag tillhörande Ryska federationen, historiskt tillhörande Ostpreussen och Tyskland – marknadsförs av fyra olika kategorier aktörer med anledning av FIFAs arrangerande av fotbolls-VM i Ryssland sommaren 2018. Främst är det staden framför regionen som kommer att undersökas. Uppsatsen ämnar med detta söka utöka försThis thesis will investigate how both the region but primarily the city of Kaliningrad – today belonging to the Russian federation, historically belonging to East Prussia and Germany – are branded and marketed by four different fields or categories of agents. This is done with the 2018 summer World Cup Football Games in mind, which will take place in Russia. First and foremost is to note that it m

Currently, Blockchain Technology (BT) is still in the early stages of development. However, this technology has been used in some governments, organizations, companies, and research institutions. The novelty of BT led to the needs of an organization to understand what drives them to implement it. Besides understanding the drivers of implementing BT, it is also equally necessary to understand the c

The aim of this thesis was to analyse and compare how two Swedish parliamentary parties, the Left Party and the Sweden Democrats, have discursively problematized and depicted narcotics through the parties' political motions between the years 2010/11 to 2020/21. This was achieved by collecting all political motions regarding narcotics from each political party during this time span and finally

This is a master thesis about how to be able to clean an open device during assembly for the company of McNeil AB. McNeil AB is a company in Helsingborg, Sweden, producing the Nicorette brand, which is a nicotine based product line which helps people stop smoking. McNeil AB's problem was that they had some contamination in their mouth spray product and thus a solution for the cleaning of a via

Syftet med denna undersökning är att mot bakgrund av nationella handlingsplaner och riktlinjer för funktionsnedsattas inkludering undersöka hur dessa överensstämmer med musik- och kulturskolors verksamhet. Med musik- och kulturskolan i fokus syftar också denna undersökning till att kritiskt granska inkluderingsarbetet i den reguljära verksamheten vid utvalda musik- och kulturskolor. Även musikpedaTitle: Inclusion of pupils with functional deficits in music and cultural schools The major aims of the study are to investigate the extent to which the activities of music and cultural schools that many children in Sweden can attend in their free time are consistent with the plans and guiding principles adopted in Sweden for primary and secondary school education, to examine critically the inclus

The purpose of our study is to gain better understanding on the net benefits of Mobile Customer Relationship Management (mCRM) from the perspectives of suppliers, resellers and customers. By studying and comparing different views of supplier, reseller and customer, we are interested to investigate if the implementation of mCRM will deliver the net benefits to an organization as its marketing messa

Alg som alg - eller? Grönalger är en mångfaldig grupp av primärproducenter som utgör bottennivån av de ekosystem som de är en del av. Dessa organismer binder kol med hjälp av solens energi - djurplankton äter upp grönalgerna - små fiskar äter djurplankton, och så vidare. Skulle något påverka populationen av grönalger riskerar denna påverkan att skapa en kaskadeffekt som påverkar varje steg i närThe unicellular green alga of genus Chlamydomonas are well studied within the fields of photosynthesis and flagellar research. Although many molecular tools have been developed for use on Chlamydomonas, little research has been done on its ecology and population dynamics. Species within the genus are morphologically indistinguishable using light microscopy and as such a molecular method is necessa

Under de senaste 30 åren har all elektronik fått allt mindre storlek. Detta beror på att man har lyckats skala ned de komponenter som bygger upp dagens elektronik till nanoskalan. En av de allra viktigaste strukturerna som har bidragit till den här utvecklingen är nanotrådar, som är i storlek av en miljarddels meter. Nanotrådar är små avlånga strukturer som är kristallina och kan användas att byggIII-V semiconductor material based nanowires have been extensively studied and shown to be a very exciting building block for future electronics. Material systems such as GaSb show a lot of promise in optoelectric and thermoelectric generation applications because of its high electron mobility and small bandgap. Although there is a lot of research about III-V nanowires, a gap in understanding anti

Kombinera halvledarmaterial på atomnivå i nanotrådar Genom att växa nanotrådar och samtidigt studera detta med supermikroskop, kan man styra kristallväxten och utveckla nya materialkombinationer för att skapa framtidens material. Så kallade nanotrådar är i en stavform där diametern är i nm-skalan medan längden kan vara i µm-skalan. Dessa nanotrådar kan vara gjorda av kristallina material och genOne of the ways to utilize III-V nanowires, is to make use of the possibility to combine materials and create heterostructures which allows for creating material combinations with new properties. A special interest can be taken into Sb-containing nanowires due to the high electron mobility, however there has been reported difficulties with switching to other materials because of a 'memory effe

The purpose of this research was to investigate the mediating role of managerial cognition in the adoption and innovation of business models triggered by emerging digital technologies. Firstly, we explored how managers cognitively conceptualize emerging digital technologies (i.e., Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Cloud Computing, Internet of Things and Big Data, and the Metaverse) as enriched

The purpose of this paper was to gain knowledge about how our senior citizens living in institutions manage their everyday life. Do they get a say on what should be done and how? Do they want to make their own decisions and is it possible for them to express needs and wishes? Is there a way to combine this sort of influence on your own way of living with the fact that many of these elderly people

At the same time, increasingly intrusive data collection techniques have raisedsignificant privacy concerns among consumers and regulators. The result is an increa

The boreal forest landscape covers approximately 10% of the earth's land area and accounts for almost 30 % of the global annual terrestrial sink of carbon (C). Increased emissions due to climate-change-amplified fire frequency, size, and intensity threaten to remove elements such as C and nitrogen (N) from forest soil and vegetation at rates faster than they accumulate. This may result in large ar

Background: Unplanned pregnancy is significantly associated with an increased risk of perinatal depression (antenatal and postnatal depression), emphasizing its prevalence and its potentially detrimental effects on both maternal and child health. This study aimed to investigate the association of contraception use and pregnancy intention with the risk of perinatal depression among Omani mothers. M

Över 80 000 personer bor på särskilt boende i Sverige. Flytten dit är ofta livets sista och kan medföra psykisk och fysisk påfrestning med risk för depression, försämrad hälsa och för tidig död. Endast personer med omfattande hjälpbehov beviljas plats, och enligt lag får flytten inte ske mot den äldres vilja. Trots ökad skörhet förväntas individen alltså själv ta stort ansvar för flyttprocessen. DMore than 80,000 people live in nursing homes in Sweden. The move isoften the final relocation in life and may involve both psychological andphysical strain, with risks of depression, deteriorating health, and prematuredeath. Only individuals with extensive care needs are granted placement,and by law, the move cannot be made against the will of the older person.Despite increased frailty, individua

Given the rise of new startups and the challenges amplified by events like the Covid-19, it is critical to address the notion of the Entrepreneurial Ecosystem which, in turn, facilitates the development of new ventures. One of the actors within this ecosystem is startup accelerators, which provide networking opportunities, financial and mentoring assistance to new ventures. Previous research on ac
