  • Intra-organizational trust in public organizations - the study of interpersonal trust in both vertical and horizontal relationships from a bidirectional perspective
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Public Management Review. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1471-9037 .- 1471-9045. ; 23:12, s. 1768-1788
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The purpose of this paper is to enhance our understanding of intra-organizational trust in public organizations by studying interpersonal trust in both vertical and horizontal relationships from a bidirectional perspective. Previous research has focused on trust at a single level of analysis, ignoring influences from other organizational levels, which has led to gaps in our understanding of trust. In addition, few studies take a bidirectional perspective where a trustor is simultaneously a trustee and vice versa. Through a case study, we contributed to filling this gap by studying the antecedents of trust - ability, benevolence and integrity.

  • Reconstructing trust through a transformation process : The case of the Swedish Public Employment Service
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: XXII IRSPM Annual Conference 2018.
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • A strategic transformation process of a Swedish agency, i.e. the Swedish Public Employment Service, is discussed from a trust framework. Lately, the agency has been heavily criticized internally (by managers and employees) and externally (by different stakeholders) for failing in fulfilling its goals and deliver inadequate services. In 2014, the agency launched a new strategy – to become trustworthy and to deliver better services to its customers. It was the agency’s attempt to move away from the old authoritarian bureaucratic management style towards introducing trust-based management control. The old and the new way of managing the agency creates tensions that are difficult to overcome and where mistrust at different levels within the organization is a major obstacle affecting the ongoing transformation process. The aim of this paper is to shed light on how trust is reconstructed in vertical and horizontal relationships within a public service delivery agency that experiences an extensive transformation process. Drawing upon a processual case study approach, we have conducted 65 interviews, observations and document studies. The results show how the agency have suffered from low levels of trust in both vertical and horizontal relationships and that low levels of trust in vertical relationships seem to have negative impact on horizontal collaborations within the agency. The paper contributes to previous research in the following ways. First, the reconstruction of trust is discussed from a time perspective, pointing at the importance of discussing the development of trust in terms of a past, a present and a future. Second, within the paper, trust is discussed in both vertical relationships (i.e. relationships between employees/managers) as well as horizontal relationships (i.e. relationships between co-workers) within the same analytical framework, which enables a discussion about the impact of trust development in vertical relationships on the development of trust in horizontal relationships and vice versa.

  • Strategic Entrepreneurship Practices at Robotdalen : A balancing act or Not?
  • 2014
  • Ingår i: Rencontres de St-Gall, 2014. ; , s. 1-17
  • Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • In this paper we take an interest in Robotdalen - a Swedish robotics initiative with the goal to enable commercial success of new ideas and research – a small public organization acting in an inter-organizational context of both private and public organizations. By utilizing Robotdalen as a case example we have discussed and analyzed how they during the years have struggled with bureaucratic structures that tend to limit their entrepreneurial work, but also how these structures have been used as an opportunity. The perspective applied to analyze has been a quite new concept of strategic entrepreneurship that takes an interest in both strategy and entrepreneurship as a balancing act in established organizations. The findings suggests that conditions for strategic entrepreneurship practices in inter-organizational contexts is to keep it simple, communicate narratives and being flexible. Moreover, in theory entrepreneurial and strategic processes are considered as dual or the opposite of each other, but our findings rather indicate that they are mutually dependent i.e. they enabling each other’s existence.

  • Quadruple helix as a network of relationships : creating value within a Swedish regional innovation system
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Journal of Small Business and Entrepreneurship. - : Routledge. - 0827-6331 .- 2169-2610. ; 32:6, s. 523-544
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • A regional smart specialization initiative is investigated from a quadruple helix framework (industry, government, academia, and users/civil society). Based on a qualitative case study, we examine the interdependencies of actors, resources, and activities from a micro perspective. The aim is to understand the relationships and the value created between the different actors. From the results we conclude that the fourth helix should be viewed as a whole – an arena where triple helix actors in different value adding relationships take on different roles – where they create value to civil society, for example, new jobs or products for improved elderly care. In line with this, we state that the fourth helix is far more complex than limiting it to simply become a fourth separate helix of users or civil society. There is a complexity in that the fourth helix consists of both different users (including triple helix actors) as well as civil society. Users in the quadruple helix framework can also be defined in several ways depending on the context of the arena (the fourth helix) and what value adding activities they bring to civil society. Thus, users can be businesses, organizations, citizens, society, and many more things.

  • Affinities In Corporate Entrepreneurship : A Literature Review
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Marketing and Entrepreneurship. ; , s. 1-17
  • Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • This paper is a literature review of the theoretical field of corporate entrepreneurship. As the term is growing in popularity previous research has seen the field as disparate and that the lack of consensus is evident. Only a few researchers have, more or less, focused on commonalities or similarities. In this paper a comparative analysis of the literature is made trough a lens of affinities and some conclusions are made e.g. when it comes to notions, methodology and the use of perspectives.

  • And Now Lean : Discursive Practices and their Consequences in Two Organizations
  • 2013
  • Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • How people write and talk about lean, a management concept, has consequences for how we think andact towards lean as a phenomenon in research as well as in practice. It is therefore important to studyhow discourses are used to prioritize specific views and the possible consequences of such use. To thateffect we have studied the implementation of lean in one private and one public organization from adiscursive psychology approach. There is however no consensus about what lean is or about theconsequences its interpretation might bring. Studying the discursive practices that position lean in textand talk it is clear that multiple discourses are used as a flexible resource on different discursive levels(individual text and talk, local discourses of the organization and societal discourses) to make sense ofthe implementation of lean. In this way we contributing to research on lean in a context of managementand organizational research by showing how discourses are deployed in interaction by people in textand talk to perform specific functions such as justify, legitimize, claim and criticize.

  • Discursive practices in strategic entrepeneurship : discourses and the use of repertoires in two firms
  • 2013
  • Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • This is a thesis in marketing concerned with entrepreneurship in established firms and the discursive practices that take place within a perspective of strategic entrepreneurship. The study of discursive practices in this context assumes a concern with how different aspects of entrepreneurship are produced and consumed by people in text and talk. Strategic entrepreneurship can be seen as an organisational form of entrepreneurship. The latest contribution within strategic entrepreneurship tends to focus on opportunities and advantages in organisations as two processes that need to be considered and managed jointly.In this thesis, I have studied the discursive practices of how scholars position strategic entrepreneurship through an enhanced literature review and by means of a close analysis of assumptions made within strategic entrepreneurship, but also by studying two firms and their discursive practices of constructing opportunity and advantage positions. The results have then been analysed with reference to discourse theory and previous research within entrepreneurship based on European traditions that builds on the linguistic turn.By conducting an empirical study of two firms, I have studied discourses in use, and how they are produced by people. In so doing, two main findings emerge in the discussion of the empirical results: 1) Opportunity and advantage positions emerge in social interaction and are co-constructed. 2) Opportunity and advantage positions are constructed by the use of multiple discourses, on different levels of discourse and for different functions. The main purpose of the thesis is to enhance the understanding of entrepreneurship in established firms and the activities labelled as strategic entrepreneurship. In addressing the purpose, seven theoretical, methodological and empirical contributions to research emerge in areas of strategic entrepreneurship, entrepreneurship and the enterprising self.

  • Robotdalen Version 2.0 : Challenges and opportunities in the emergence of a new board
  • 2014
  • Ingår i: IRSPM XVIII Eighteenth Annual Conference of the International Research Society for Public Management (IRSPM). ; , s. 1-28
  • Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Robotdalen - a Swedish robotics initiative with the goal to enable commercial success of new ideas and research - can be defined as a small entrepreneurial hybrid organization that includes private and public organizations. Almost a decade after its creation, Robotdalen is facing new challenges such as the need to balance between the entrepreneurial features that hitherto characterized the organization and the increasingly established and structured governance work practices, routines and procedures. Trying to create this balance has been found, both in research and in practice, to be a major challenge and there has been several calls for research (Ireland & Webb 2007; Kuratko & Audresch 2009; Schindehutte & Morris 2009; Kyrgidou & Huges 2010; Luke et al. 2011; Foss & Lyngsie 2012). There is also a lack of empirical contributions and studies on public organizations in a context of governance, entrepreneurship and strategic matters (Klein 2013).In this paper we ask: How is Robotdalen governed in order to on the one hand create order, structure, predictability and sustainability, while on the other find their own innovative solutions to problems that cannot be standardized or predicted? In this context the governance function of the board becomes important both as the maintainer of what is working in the organization, but also as a developer that renews the organization for future challenges. Therefore, we intend to highlight the performance of governance structures, which so far have been understudied in previous research (Minichilli 2009). There has also been a call for further research on boards in a setting of small organizations (c.f. Minichilli & Hansen 2007; Huse 2008). We intend to meet this call by contributing to the theoretical field of entrepreneurship in established organizations and the field of management governance, i.e. how the board of directors enables, develops and sustains the entrepreneurial spirit an in an inter-organizational relationship (IOR) setting.The findings show the importance to review the composition, role and function of the board when it comes to govern an IOR. Thus, acting in a complex setting of both private and public actors not only poses challenges of monitoring different stakes and interests (cf. Holmgren Caicedo & Mårtensson 2012), but also differences in strategic goals and views on value e.g. public actors put forth values of democracy and accountability, while private actors emphasized values of growth and profitability. In order to achieve this Robotdalen had to take some innovative and entrepreneurial actions in regards to the board’s composition, role and function.To sum it up, in line with suggested research our paper aims to understand governance mechanisms, i.e. structures and processes designed at reconciling the interest of different stakeholders within a board of directors and their governance of IORs. In this sense we relate to the topic of board and organizational outcomes as performance and innovation.

  • Smart specialization in regional innovation systems : a quadruple helix perspective
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: R &D Management. - : Wiley-Blackwell. - 0033-6807 .- 1467-9310. ; 48:1, s. 60-72
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • This article explores Robotdalen, a smart specialization initiative in the region of Malardalen, Sweden, and its impact on regional innovation systems (RIS). The Robotdaleninitiative, with the goal to create a regional center for robotics, was established based onthe triple helix innovation systems model of industry, university, and government interaction.This paper aims to understand the dynamic interactions of the smart specializationstrategy in relation to the RIS. It also includes the perspective of the fourth helix, whichcontains civil society and users. To date, there has been a scarcity of research whichexplores the challenges of quadruple helix models from a micro perspective to understandtheir complexity. To address this, a single case study approach is taken, which includes alongitudinal perspective of 10 years (2007–2016). The analysis includes micro activitiesexplored from a strategizing perspective. The research contributes by identifying threestrategic practices that have evolved over time for Robotdalen. It also presents an empiricaloperationalization of the fourth helix, as well discusses the arrival of the fourth helixperspective.
