Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this article, Gustav Almqvist and Patric Andersson discuss policy implications of nudging during COVID-19. Conducting a survey with 596 individuals in Sweden, the authors show that individuals are fine with nudges but that they prefer traditional methods of governmental interventions such as economic incentives (carrots), mandates (sticks) and information (sermons). A conclusion is therefore that policy makers should use nudging with caution when potentially better alternatives exist.

Future digitalization of education after COVID-19: The edtech market was already complicated, and COVID-19 did not make things easier.
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Sweden through the crisis. - Stockholm : Stockholm School of Economics Institute for Research. - 9789186797386 ; , s. 567-581
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this article, Per Andersson and Lars-Gunnar Mattsson describe the emerging edtech market. Studying Sensavis, an educational technology company in Sweden, they describe how the company changed business model four times in five years. Due to uncoordinated policy shifts at the national level coupled with challenges at the local level, the authors foresee an even more complex edtech market after COVID-19. To handle this, they propose four tensions that need to be addressed.

A remote possibility: Will remote work be the new normal after the COVID-19 crisis?
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Sweden through the crisis. - Stockholm : Stockholm School of Economics Institute for Research. - 9789186797386 ; , s. 447-452
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this article, Pernilla Bolander, Jennie Sumelius and Andreas Werr argue that remote work can be both a blessing and a curse for the individual employee. Even though efficiency can be maintained in the short run, the long-term challenges might be difficult to handle. The authors offer recommendations for how both the HR function and line managers need to adapt to the new normal.

Educational hybrids: The importance of physical arenas to engage all senses.
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Sweden through the crisis. - Stockholm : Stockholm School of Economics Institute for Research. - 9789186797386 ; , s. 509-521
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this article, Martin Carlsson-Wall and Pär Mårtensson discuss the importance of face-to-face education. Even though digital technology has a lot of potential, the authors highlight how physical arenas are important for mobilizing all senses. For business schools like the Stockholm School of Economics, a world-class experience is most likely driven by traditional face-to-face education.

Sports and creativity: introducing a model for paradoxical decision-making in times of crisis
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Sweden through the crisis. - Stockholm : Stockholm School of Economics Institute for Research. - 9789186797386 ; , s. 379-388
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this article, Martin Carlsson-Wall argues that organizations can become winners after COVID-19 by broadening their view of creativity and changing how they make decisions. Winning teams accept tensions and conflicts because the creative friction makes them grow and excel. A model is introduced with concrete steps for how this paradoxical decision-making can be achieved.

Shifting lanes: How consumer behaviors shifted during the COVID-19 crisis.
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Sweden through the crisis. - Stockholm : Stockholm School of Economics Institute for Research. - 9789186797386 ; , s. 171-183
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this article, Jonas Colliander and Sara Rosengren show how retail firms can come out of the COVID-19 crisis as winners. The authors note that when consumers find themselves in new buying situations, they often stick to the first brand they buy in a category, provided that they are satisfied. A crisis like this could, therefore, be an opportunity to gain market shares. Moving forward, the authors predict that consumers will desire simplicity and that sustainable business practices might not only be good for the environment, but also for business.

Perceptions about quarterly earnings: Rhetorical differences comparing Sweden and the USA.
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Sweden through the crisis. - Stockholm : Stockholm School of Economics Institute for Research. - 9789186797386 ; , s. 157-163
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this article, Michał Dzieliński and Florian Eugster compare earnings calls from Swedish and American companies from January 2019 to May 2020. Analyzing 3,677 transcripts, the authors find that COVID-19 clearly impacted companies’ financial communication regardless of country. However, comparing the countries, it is also shown that Swedish companies were more positive and less uncertain about the future. If these differences are caused by a better underlying performance or different rhetorical strategies in Sweden and the USA remains to be seen for future research.
