This study investigates the evolving strategic role of Human Resources (HR) in today’s volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) environment. By comparing perspectives of HR-leaders and CEOs, HR’s strategic contribution is explored, as well as the barriers limiting its influence and the priorities needed for driving increased organisational success. A qualitative, comparative approach was
Collective bargaining agreements conceptualizes a major part of the construction of employment conditions for the Swedish labour market. However, the industry of elite football has historically not fully embraced the complete extent of this method of structuring employment. However, in 2023 the key stakeholders in Swedish women’s elite football, SFS, EFD, Unionen, AGA, individual players and clubs
In an increasingly digital and hyperconnected world, traditional advertising strategies are losing traction as consumers rely on social media for inspiration, information search and purchase decisions.

Nondestructive assaying (NDA) is an important step in ensuring the safe handling of spent nuclear fuel and radioactive waste. The assaying techniques require the use of ionizing radiation detectors to determine the activity of said fuel. One candidate detector for such use is the cerium-activated LaBr3 inorganic crystal scintillator. This scintillator offers excellent resolution, decay times and l

While women comprise the majority of the hospitality industry workforce, making 56% in the EU market, they still remain significantly underrepresented in leadership roles, with 38% in top-level roles and less than 40% in managerial positions. This gender gap is evident in the Swedish hospitality sector where the higher volume of women are concentrated in part-time roles with a lower pay and facing
This thesis presents a generative deep learning framework for outpainting of missing regions in partial fingerprint images. The architecture builds on a U-Transformer backbone, incorporating Swin Transformer blocks and trained within a GAN setup using the WGAN-GP loss to ensure stable adversarial learning. The model learns to create plausible extensions of fingerprint images, maintaining ridge str
This paper examines the consequences of the US transition from a T+2 to a T+1 settlement cycle. We assess whether the reform enhanced market liquidity, increased settlement frictions, and whether effects varied across firm types and time horizons. Using a Difference-in-Differences design with matched US–EU firm-level data, we evaluate short-, mid-, and long-term impacts on three liquidity proxies:
This study aims to capture stakeholders’ perspectives on the placemaking process in shaping Singapore's Somerset Belt. Guided by three research questions, it examines: (1) how placemaking is perceived and experienced by stakeholders, (2) the challenges and learning reflections in the placemaking process, and (3) how stakeholders define creativity and how it applies in placemaking. Using purpos
As the drive to find sustainable and technological solutions to ongoing global problems becomes increasingly urgent, implementing timely innovation is needed now more than ever. The concept of regional innovation systems has recently gained popularity as a recipe for innovation and increasing knowledge transfer on a smaller scale. Specifically, the role of education in regional innovation systems
Med bakgrund i FN generalförsamlings begäran om ett rådgivande yttrande från Internationella domstolen (ICJ) gällande staters ansvar i klimatfrågan, enligt resolution A/77/L.58, undersöker denna studie hur icke-statliga organisationer (NGO:er) framställer statligt ansvar för klimatrelaterade människorättskränkningar. Särskild vikt läggs vid rätten till liv samt rätten till ett rent, hälsosamt och
Purpose: The study aims to examine whether health consciousness, as a cognitive heuristic, influences the impact of vegan labels, as external cues, on product attribute perceptions such as taste, health, and environmental friendliness, as well as on consumption intentions. As consumers face cognitive limitations when evaluating food products, this research aim to contribute to the understandin
The 21st century has been marked by repeated financial crises that have challenged the effectiveness of traditional portfolio management strategies. Events such as the 2008 financial crisis, the Eurozone debt crisis, and the COVID-19 pandemic have exposed the vulnerabilities of conventional models, such as the widely used Markowitz (1952) mean-variance framework. Since this model balances risk and
This thesis explores how Black and African-diasporic community archives in Europe respond to the legacy of colonial erasure resulting in archival silences by utilising emerging archival practices to shape identity and collective memory, and build archival repositories for the future. Focusing on the digital platforms of three European community archives: Black Archives Sweden (BAS), the Black Cult
This thesis analyzes how managerial responsibilities and competencies are affected by the integration of AI within organizations. As AI technologies increasingly support or automate operational tasks, decision-making processes and strategic planning, the responsibilities of managers are evolving. The study aims to identify these evolving responsibilities, and the competencies required to effective
This thesis investigates how women's suit trousers from different price ranges differ in terms of durability, construction, and materials and discusses which pair of trousers has the longest lifespan. The study is grounded in theories of class, consumption, and luxury, and explores the concept of quality and longevity. By combining theoretical perspectives with a six-step object analysis, thre
