Abstract [sv]

Sammanfattning Titel: Återuppbyggnad av strukturer efter en kris Författare: Lisa Mattsson, Emma Lindmar Handledare: Camilla Wernersson Institution: Managementhögskolan, Blekinge Tekniska Högskola Kurs: Kandidatarbete i Företagsekonomi, 10 poäng Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att ur ett meningsskapande perspektiv bidra till en ökad kunskap och förståelse om hur interaktioner mellan människor i en organisation kan återuppbygga strukturer efter en kris. Metod: För att nå vårt syfte har vi valt att arbeta med kvalitativa metoder. Vi har genomfört en gruppintervju med personal från hemtjänsten i Kronobergs län, vars strukturer rasade samman under stormen Gudrun. Vi undersökte hur de efteråt återuppbyggde strukturerna genom att analysera olika teman ur empirin. Slutsatser: Osäkerhet, samhörighet, roller, beslutsfattande och rationalitet, är teman som alla är länkade till varandra, till strukturåteruppbyggande och till meningsskapande. Detta resonemang leder till slutsatsen att meningsskapande kan underlätta för strukturåteruppbyggande, och strukturåteruppbyggande kan i sin tur underlätta för meningsskapande. Abstract Title: Reconstruction of structures after a crisis Authors: Lisa Mattsson, Emma Lindmar Supervisor: Camilla Wernersson Department: School of management, Blekinge Institute of Technology Course: Bachelor’s thesis in Business Administration, 10 credits Purpose: Our purpose of this paper is to, with a sensemaking perspective, contribute to a higher knowledge and understanding about how interactions between people in an organization can reconstruct structures after a crisis. Method: To achieve our purpose we chose a qualitative method. We did a group interview with staff from the social service in Kronobergs län, whose structures collapsed during the storm Gudrun. We studied how they reconstructed the structures afterwards by analysing different themes taken from the interview. Results: Insecurity, connections, roles, decision making and rationality are all themes that are linked to each other, to rebuilding of structures and to sensemaking. This discussion leads us to the conclusion that sensemaking can facilitate rebuilding of structures, and rebuilding of structures can facilitate sensemaking.
