The organization of professional work-that of lawyers, doctors, and accountants, among others-is undergoing change. One of the most notable changes is the disaggregation of work processes, or the unbundling of work into component tasks and their allocation to different sources of labor. The legal profession, and specifically the corporate law firms and clients that make up the profession's "core", is increasingly subject to such reorganization. An emerging hypothesis is that this unbundling and reallocation of tasks underpins new forms of stratification. This dissertation explores the extent to which tasks underpin the distribution of opportunities and rewards that come to define occupational stratification in law.
In the first essay, I show how market pressures-specifically, rooted in changing firm-client relationships, incongruities in law firm business models, and increased competition from alternative legal service providers-contributes to occupational change by transforming law firms' division of labor and its tasks. The precise implications of such transformation remain unclear, as tasks are not typically examined as a mechanism of professional stratification. The next two essays aim to bring clarity to this issue. In each, I build from an emerging model of task-based stratification found in work design and organizational scholarship. In this model, tasks are theorized to underpin stratification through their technical, social, and subjective characteristics, doing so in ways that hinge on their status.
I examine this model first using qualitative data collected in two major legal markets, showing that the disaggregation of tasks that vary by status shapes divergent opportunity structures related to skill, social resources, and signals of professional status, such professional expertise and autonomy, which reinforce existing stratification in new ways. The third essay builds on these insights, using both fieldwork and survey data to test the relationship between task status and occupational outcomes more systematically. My findings show that certain high- and low-status tasks are associated with three forms of social resources, mostly in the expected direction. Yet nuance in these relationships suggests further refinement and new conditions of the model. These findings raise implications for task-based stratification and stratification in the profession more generally.

Повний текст джерелаI samband med revisionsskandaler i USA så infördes ett nytt kontroll organ för revisorer, Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. De har syftet att kontrollera att revisorer som arbetar med klienter som lyder under Sarbanes-Oxley Act efterföljder de nya reglerna. Den svenska revisorsprofessionen har länge varit självreglerad men på grund av PCAOB möts professionen av en tydligare reglering vilket kan resultera i problem. Därför finns det ett behov att undersöka hur svenska revisorer ser på PCAOB och hur det har påverkat revisorsprofessionen.
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka svenska revisorers åsikter om PCAOB och om PCAOB har förändrat den svenska revisorsprofessionen. Uppsatsen har också syftet att förklara orsakerna bakom de svenska revisorernas åsikter och varför den svenska revisorsprofessionen påverkas.
Utifrån uppsatsen syfte valdes en kvalitativ ansats. Data har samlats in genom semistrukturerade telefonintervjuer och personlig intervju. Urvalet består av 4 stycken anonyma auktoriserade revisorer som alla har erfarenhet av Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
PCAOB har påverkat revisorsprofessionen till att bli mer professionell men samtidigt har formaliseringen ökat för professionen och bidragit till mindre tid för analytiskt arbete vilket i längden kan påverka kvaliteten på revisionen negativt och därmed kan PCAOB utgöra ett hot mot professionen.
Trots att revisorsprofessionen är och har varit starkt kopplad till självreglering så verkar regulativa förändringar från PCAOB som syftar till att stärka revisorernas förtroende vara viktigare än att vidhålla professionens självreglering
As auditing scandals occurred in the US, a new controlling institute for auditors was formed, Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. It has the purpose to monitor auditors who are working with clients that have to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Swedish auditing profession has for long time been self-regulated, but due to PCAOB the profession faces a stricter regulation which could lead to some problems. Hence, there exists a need to investigate how Swedish auditors look upon PCAOB and how it has effected the auditing profession.
The purpose of this thesis is to examine Swedish auditor’s opinions about PCAOB and if PCAOB has affected the Swedish auditing profession. Furthermore, this thesis aims to explain the reasons behind the Swedish auditor’s beliefs and why the Swedish auditing profession is affected.
On the basis of the purpose, a qualitative research method was chosen. Data has been collected through semi-structured telephone interviews and personal interview. The selection consists of four anonymous authorized public accountants who all have experience of Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
Due to PCAOB the auditing profession has become more professionalized but at the same time an increase in formalisation has left little time for actual analytical work and the quality of the audit might in the end be lower which constitute a major threat to the auditing profession.
Although, the tradition of the auditing profession is and has been self-regulation it appears that PCAOB is welcomed by auditors since a regulative change that aim to improve auditors’ trust is more important than maintaining a self-regulated profession.

Повний текст джерелаDagens ekonomiska klimat sätter press på tidigare sätt att organisera arbete inom professionella organisationer, där starka grupper som karakteriseras av makt, prestige och autonomi har ett stort inflytande. Till följd av en ökad insyn i det professionella arbetet uppstår i denna kontext ett motstånd till förändring. Tidigare studier av förändring inom professionella organisationer uppvisar dock begränsningar i sitt sätt att förstå fenomenet. Genom att designa ett nytt, mer dynamiskt ramverk för undersökande av förändringsprocessen syftar vi med denna rapport till att utöka förståelsen kring utmaningar kopplade till förändringsinitiativ i professionella organisationer. Genom observationsstudier och öppna intervjuer på ett stort svenskt sjukhus där ett leaninspirerat arbetssätt håller på att implementeras identifierade vi de fem diskursiva beteendena: “Shielding the Profession”, “Exempting Exceptions”, “Positioning Subjects”, “Casting the Other” och “Engaging” som kunde anses vara typiska för professionella organisationer generellt. Genom att förstå dynamiken mellan olika diskurser kunde vi sedan förklara hur dessa fem beteenden bidrog till tre huvudsakliga utmaningar kopplade till förändringsinitiativ i professionella organisationer: “The challenge of novel concepts”, “The challenge of achieving managerial influence” och “The challenge of distance”. Våra resultat kan anses utgöra en grund för vidare studier som vill utforska hur förändringsprocesser strategiskt kan påverkas men de kan också användas som ett verktyg av ledare i professionella organisationer som upplever svårigheter att nå önskade resultat av förändringsinitiativ.

Повний текст джерелаDespite calls to understand the micro-foundation of institutional theory and to understand how professional identity change relates to the broader macro context (e.g., Lok, 2010; Lepisto, Crosina and Pratt, forthcoming); exploration of the link between a field-level institutional change and the individual professionals' identity responses within the field remains. For this dissertation, I conducted an inductive qualitative study of French veterinarians and their reactions to "the Service Directive", a European Union regulation that re-categorizes veterinarians as "service providers" from "healthcare professionals." Drawing on interviews with practicing veterinarians, leaders of the field, observations, and archival data, my dissertation advances our understanding of professionals' responses to an institutional change which can potentially redefine what their profession is. My findings suggest that professionals negotiate an institutional change (in this case, the Service Directive) at the professional level before its formal implementation and before individual professionals within their organization engaged in any form of response. My dissertation introduces a model centered on understanding how veterinarians responded to this change at the individual level (and more particularly, in terms of identity) within their organization. This model suggests that individual professionals perceive the institutional regulatory change in hopeful, fearful or ambivalent manners. I found that these perceptions are influenced by professionals' work orientation and perceived organization's time orientation. Further, I found that these perceptions lead to different types of identity responses: identity expansion, identity maintenance, giving up a possible self, and de-emphasizing an existing identity. My research enriches emerging perspectives on identity responses to an institutional change by pointing out various identity responses and tying them to the perceptions of an institutional change. My research further suggests that such a change can be perceived as an opportunity, as a threat, or both, not solely as a threat. Furthermore, my dissertation introduces the notions of orientation (work orientation and perceived organization's time orientation) as key to the processing of an institutional trigger. Finally, it calls attention to an emotional processing of the institutional trigger

Повний текст джерелаSince the Second World War the Swedish healthcare has changed considerably, along with the development of the welfare state. Different trends and models have influenced the way the healthcare system has been managed and organized. This has naturally had consequences for those working in the health sector. The objective of this study is, in the light of these changes, to investigate how the mission of the personnel function has changed within the organization Landstinget i Uppsala län (Uppsala County Council) during the past thirty years. The method is an empirical study based on interviews with individuals whom have been part of the personnel function in the County Council for a long time. These are the main conclusions of the study: The personnel function has developed from an administrative to an expert function. The expert function includes two roles, as carrying the strategic mission, and as consultative support through managers in the organization. This has to some extent brought the personnel function from an operative perspective to a strategic one. This has been a positive development for the personnel function, as it has contributed to a more distinct definition of their profession.

Повний текст джерелаIt is not much in our everyday lives that escapes to be influenced by the progress of digitization. Much trade is today done over the internet, and our banking errands are being made more frequently through smartphones. The trend indicates that consumers of different products and services are becoming increasingly digital in their relationship with different organizations. But a change in consumer behavior also affects companies that provide the different products and services.This trend has been observed in the accounting profession. Many digital services have recently appeared in the Swedish market in form of apps and simplified programs that will make it easier for business owners to manage their bookkeeping themselves. This study therefore aims to study that phenomenon. The study draws attention to how different actors in the profession adapt to the changes by highlighting the strategy and possible change processes they proceed to face the potentials and challenges of digitization. The accounting profession belongs to a branch of business professionalism, which is a weak form of profession. Therefore, research on both machine bureaucracies and professions has been relevant to the design of the study's reference framework, where we address the different ways digitization influences these types of organizations.The propose of the study is to highlight in which ways the accounting profession reacts and chooses to respond to the challenges of digitization and how the strategies differ depending on their attitude towards the development. We have chosen a qualitative method to our study and have conducted semi-structured interviews with seven certified accounting consultants at various accounting agencies in Västra Götaland, Sweden. The result of our study shows that the strategies for managing the digitization differ between agencies and we have been able to distinguish three dominant strategies that we describe in our analysis. We have also observed that certain parts of the accounting agencies shift from being professionally structured to acquire some characteristics from machine bureaucracies in the change processeses towards the digitization.This study will hereafter be in Swedish.

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis project is located at the intersection of the sociology of professions and educational sciences: how to report that some professions feminize while others do not, or less rapidly? What does this phenomenon reveal about the action of gender norms and their transformations? How to analyze the differences in speeds of this feminization that we will call “gender heterochrony”? To which “educational mediations” is this phenomenon of heterochrony linked?The entry of the different speeds of feminization of the professions is not addressed by research in the sociology of professions to understand the dynamics of equalization between men and women in our society. The challenge of this work will be so blind at this point by the updating of these dynamics that have contributed to the evolution of the gender of work: it will be a question of re-examining the distribution of professional and domestic work between men and women with a new look. This thesis project is also part of the educational sciences. It is based on the updating of logic of family education style and the development of a typology of vocational guidance; that we will be able to reconstruct the construction spaces of dispositions, or educational mediations, which make possible the creation of gender heterochrony in the professional fields

Повний текст джерелаIn a world of continuous change, training procedures should implement new ways to boost dynamic adaptation to change. This research focuses on the change brought in vocational nursing training after 2009 Reform. It accounts for the phenomena related to the transformation process within the profession; in particular, how to shift from a former training system to a new one. It reports about emerging professional practices and the ability of tutors in nursing to seize new logical approaches to support their students on their vocational path. The starting point is the hypothesis that the internship tutor’s role or the professionalization of their supervisory activities, are significant vectors in their trainees’ proficiency and the professionalism of an entire vocation. The suggested theoretical approach sheds light on the new relationship to knowledge in the logical acquisition of skills. The results are based on an observation of participants, 50 collective and individual semi-structured interviews conducted with various actors involved in the professionalization of learners in two hospitals at separate times. The analysis has enabled to identify several logical approaches regarding change and also notice the importance of supporting the actors on the field in a social constructivist dynamics for a sustainable transformation of their practices

Thesis, Luleå tekniska universitet, Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik och samhälle, 2017. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:ltu:diva-67121.
Повний текст джерелаDenna masteruppsats undersöker en förändring i hälso- och sjukvården, i ett landsting i Norrbottens län. Denna förändring, som benämns som kompetensväxling i den studerade verksamheten, innebär att arbetsuppgifter omfördelas mellan olika yrkesgrupper. Möjligheten att omfördela arbetsuppgifter kom på grund av att en ny yrkesgrupp vid namn Vårdnära service infördes i den studerade verksamheten. Vårdnära servicepersonals primära uppdrag är att utföra serviceuppgifter men också vissa enklare vårdrelaterade uppgifter. Uppgifterna som Vårdnära servicepersonal utför, utfördes tidigare av vårdpersonal i den studerade verksamheten. Då Vårdnära servicepersonal nu utför serviceuppgifter kan vårdpersonalen istället fokusera på deras primära vårduppgifter samt omfördela vissa vårduppgifter mellan varandra. De teoretiska utgångspunkterna i uppsatsen är byråkrati, makt och auktoritet, systemteori och intressentmodellen. Andra teoretiska utgångspunkter i uppsatsen är individ och organisation, tidigare forskning gällande omfördelning av arbetsuppgifter inom hälso- och sjukvård samt centrala begrepp gällande profession och kompetens. Uppsatsen utfördes genom en kvalitativ metod med intervjupersoner från yrkesgrupperna sjuksköterska, undersköterska, vårdnära servicepersonal, enhetschef för vårdnära service, fackliga organisationer, projektledare samt verksamhetsutvecklare. Intervjupersonerna beskriver deras upplevelse av omfördelningen av arbetsuppgifter i den studerade organisationen. Den metodologiska utgångspunkten för denna uppsats grundar sig i kunskapssociologin som handlar om analysen av sociala konstruktioner av verkligheten. Resultatet visar att vårdpersonalen är positiva till den avlastning som vårdnära servicepersonal ger i utförandet av serviceuppgifter i verksamheten. Dock finns ett visst motstånd till att vårdnära servicepersonal utför vårdrelaterade uppgifter. Det finns också brister i tydlighet gällande regler och metoder för omfördelning av arbetsuppgifterna. Resultatet visar även att inga arbetsuppgifter växlas mellan personalen, utan arbetsuppgifter avlastas enbart från ett uppifrånperspektiv till en yrkesgrupp med lägre utbildning. Alltså sker faktiskt ingen kompetensväxling i omfördelningen av arbetsuppgifter.

Повний текст джерелаIn this work, it is taken up reasons for why PE teachers increasingly choosing to leave their profession for another. Previous studies show that 18precent of newly qualified PE teacher quits within four years. The average period of employment as a PE teacher is about nine years. With a method of open interviews, five former PE teacher answer why just they ended leaving the profession as a PE teacher to continue to work in something else. These responses are then examined from an action theory and compared with previously known reasons why workers leave their jobs. This is to get a deeper understanding as to why respondents have chosen to stop and what made them work with what they do today. The results of this survey show that many of the former PE teachers have already received or are at the risk of damage to the body because of their profession in the back, knees, ears and voice. Other reasons that made respondents who ended PE teachers included too little freedom as they now feel they have more freedom in their work regarding what to do and plan. They feel that they can influence more with their current professions than towards what they could as a PE teacher. In the discussion that discussed how respondents feel today and how they think their lifestyle absence would have been if they continued as a PE teacher. It also discusses how these reasons are targeted solely PE teachers or persons who ends his job for another general. The conclusion is that the main factor influencing the PE teachers' choice to quit is to the job or workplace was not as expected, according to the employee cause of injury risk, the mismatch between job and person. to get development, advocacy opportunities in their work or stress due to overwork and sense of imbalance itself. All respondents received better life existence of changing profession.

Повний текст джерелаDriven by major changes in the higher education environment, French universities have engaged themselves in a comprehensive process of management modernization. In parallel, governments have undertaken number of reforms to face up important socio-economic and technological evolutions. These reforms aroused a vague of criticism in English and French scientific literature, stating namely, that the price to pay for the improvements proposed by these reforms is very high, sometimes even distorting the basic idea of what is university.Thus, the present research is part of the scientific and public debates incited by the changes in the governance of universities in France. It aims to analyse the nature of the impact of growing “managerialism” on the university identity. Does the introduction of private sector management tools and concepts allow improved efficiency and effectiveness of universities without altering its fundamental nature? Or, on the contrary, this “modernisation of management” transforms the university identity, which is a complex set of values, missions, operating mode… To answer these questions the research proposes a multiple case study of three French public universities with diverse academic profiles: multidisciplinary, scientific and social sciences universities. The contents analysis of the interviewed academics’ discourse reveals important identity modification due to different factors. Our aim is to see in what extent this modification is attributed to managerialism. In so doing, our research exposes number of tensions between traditional norms, values and practices, on the one hand, and the objectives of the emerging formal institutional structure and management, on the other hand

Повний текст джерелаNär specialpedagogen använder handledning som verktyg söker hon åstadkomma förändring genom att ge pedagogerna råd. Fokus i samtalet riktas framförallt på barnet och på pedagogens arbete. Specialpedagogen kan ses som en slags expert på området barn i svårigheter och den pedagogiska praktiken. När specialpedagogen använder handledning som rum för reflektion söker hon åstadkomma förändring genom att ställa frågor för att stimulera pedagogens tänkande och stödja hennes utforskande av hur problemet kan förstås. Specialpedagogen kan då ses som en slags expert på att föra reflekterande samtal och samtalets fokus riktas huvudsakligen mot pedagogen. Specialpedagogernas repertoar innehåller därmed såväl förmåga att handleda genom att ge pedagogerna råd med utgångspunkt i det enskilda barnet som att stimulera pedagogernas reflekterande över aspekter av sitt arbete.
Avhandlings syfte är att undersöka hur elva specialpedagoger beskriver och genomför handledning med pedagoger i förskola och grundskola. Intresset riktas mot samtalens innehåll och mot de påverkansprocesser som äger rum i samtalet. Handledningssamtalen studeras ur specialpedagogens perspektiv.
Specialpedagogers handledningssamtal kan bidra till att vidga synen på objektet för den specialpedagogiska verksamheten såväl som befästa ett individperspektiv på området. I denna studie dominerar användningen av handledning som verktyg. Utmaningen förefaller ligga i att söka skapa villkor som även gynnar användningen av handledning som rum för reflektion.

Повний текст джерелаThe aim of this thesis is to contribute to knowledge about how the work and profession of upper secondary school teachers is understood and shaped by the teachers in the beginning of the 21st century, and to relate that understanding of work and professional development to the strivings of the teachers’ trade unions and the state. With the implementation of an innovation as a starting point, the teachers’ narratives also described their work in a broader sense. Connections and contradictions between those descriptions of everyday work are analysed in relation to central ideas in research and state and trade union policy. The empirical data were mainly generated through interviews and studies of state- and teachers’ trade union policy documents. Twenty-three teachers at four upper secondary schools were interviewed twice, with a one year interval. Five school leaders were also interviewed. A minor questionnaire added data concerning professional development. 102 documents published by the State and the teachers’ trade unions between 1964 and 2004 were analysed using critical discourse analysis.
The analysis is eclectic, drawing on perspectives and conceptions from theories on professions, organisations, school development and the frame factor theory. The overall approach of the study is practice related research and includes an intention to draw attention to connections between micro and macro levels.
The analyses of the teachers’ narratives on implementation indicate that they were able to do the job despite unsatisfactory conditions thanks to high work morale and extensive experience. The infrastructure provided by the frame factors was weak or working at cross purposes. The school-wide support for development was stronger at one of the four schools.
The teachers’ formal freedom of action was substantial. In practice it was restricted by frame factors and the fact that the potential freedom was not fully used. Thus, the actual autonomy was more limited than it appeared to be. The school culture included elements of balkanised and contrived collegiality. Many tasks were delegated to the interdisciplinary work teams, but the teams did not seem to live up to expectations. Primarily, they lacked time and an appropriate group composition. There was a clash between the interdisciplinary work teams and the teachers’ need to co-operate within subject work teams. The teachers did not regard interdisciplinary work teams as useful for school or professional development.
Supportive conditions for long-term, shared learning and dialogue between researchers and practitioners were largely lacking. Visions such as learning organisations were far removed from the everyday life in the schools. Changes in organisational structures at the schools have partly been counterproductive.
The far-reaching restructuring of the Swedish upper secondary schools implemented from the end of the 1980s and during the 1990s was in line with international reform trends. It also had specific national characteristics. The concept professional teachers was introduced in some Government bills around 1990. The teachers’ trade unions adopted the concept and it became increasingly significant in trade union policy during the 1990s. At the turn of the millennium it was a dominant idea in their documents.
During the 1990s several influential discourses became established as shared views between the State, trade unions and some researchers, e.g. what I have called change and professional discourses. They were rarely problematized in state and teachers’ trade union policy documents. The two agreements between the teachers’ trade unions and the employers, in 1995 and 2000, constituted another component of what has been termed a system-shift in the Swedish school system. They influenced the teachers’ working conditions and implied new strategies for the trade unions. The professional, change and management discourses salient in the documents were brought into schools with insufficient opportunities for the teachers to develop a deep meaning of the discourses.
The study emphasizes the importance of practice oriented studies, related to wider contexts, in order to provide insights into teachers’ work and professional development. It also brings nuances to, and problematizes theoretical conceptions and discourses in the field.

Повний текст джерелаPrevious research predicts that the accounting industry in the next 25 years will experience a lot of turbulence as a result of the intensive technological developments. When bookkeeping becomes automated, the work of an accounting consultant presumes to be more effective and the automation process will most likely develop even faster in the following years. In order for the accounting firms not to be overtaken and lose market shares to their rivals, the importance of being aware of, and continuously look for new automated solutions appears to be meaningful. The aim of this study is to understand and explain how the automation process looks like at accounting firms today, how the industry has changed as a result of the technological developments and what current changes the accounting consultants are facing. The study is based on empirical evidence from a qualitative method with data from eleven semi-structured interviews at the following accounting firms; PwC, Ernst & Young, KPMG, Grant Thornton, Accountor and Wint. Our respondents includes five accounting consultants with different experience and six individuals who has a more responsible role at the accounting firms, such as manager. Some of the conclusions that the study has generated is that the technological developments has resulted in the fact that the accounting consultants can put a deeper focus in qualified tasks that creates a greater value for the client, rather than perform the standardized bookkeeping. Furthermore, the workload is presumed to remain at a high level according to the argument above. Despite the many benefits and the positive effects of automation, the study has shown that there are also many challenges when it comes to resistance to transformations, old regulations and new rivals entering the market. The accounting industry is therefore expected to face some major changes which we will highlight throughout the study.

Повний текст джерелаMuch has been written in academic and popular publications about organizational change. Topics have ranged from case studies to anecdotal stories of how leaders can change an organization. There is little written on changing the culture and vision of a profession at the macro level.
This dissertation shows that one key to effecting change within a profession is to educate those at the entrant level and thereby effect change with the profession. Over time, these new entrants to the profession will rise to senior positions and be able to effect greater change through the hiring, training, and mentoring processes inherent in the professions and the organizations for which they work. One way to effect change in these entrants is through education in college and professional schools. This study is specifically focused on effecting change in the interdisciplinary field of engineering and public policy. Public policy involves countless infrastructure issues at all levels of government. Engineers are well-versed in dealing with the technical issues of infrastructure but their voice is often lacking at the policy level. Similarly, political scientists are well-versed in policy but are often lacking in a thorough understanding of the technical aspects of the policy.
Through an introductory course in engineering and public policy, undergraduate students from the seemingly disparate fields of engineering and political science were placed in a common classroom and through lectures, writings, presentations, and guided discussions their attitudes on key areas were changed. Areas studied were professional interest, legitimacy, deference, the public policy process, and education outside of a specific field. Through the process of education, changes in each of these areas was possible. Further, the movement was towards making students in each discipline more open to the input, opinions, and attitudes of others, and specifically in shifting engineers toward a more positive view of the public policy process. Being exposed to these topics and to each other’s thought processes, changes in professional attitudes were made.
While there is not a specific profession for which any research has been done, the military is used, in places, as an analog to the profession of engineering.

Повний текст джерелаThis essay is about development and developmental work within preschools. Development is a well-acclaimed term within preschools in Sweden. A term usually used without much thought. What does development really mean and how does something or someone develop? In this essay I will investigate factors which are considered to have an influence on developmental work within the preschool’s educational system. The purpose of this essay is to discover small and large aspects that makes a difference for, both the individual and for the preschools, education in a developmental work. My research questions are as follows: - What does the phenomenon of development work mean for the preschool’s education? - What opportunities/difficulties does experienced preschool teachers see within a developmental work? - What factors influences the development process? - Which forms of practical and theoretical knowledge is demanded for a development work to proceed? This empiricism consists of stories from my own daily life, about experiences and thoughts that through the years have come and gone. To gain a perspective on my experiences, I participate in a couple of different discussion forums and I also see a focus group. Throughout my conversations and through reading scientific and literary texts, I draw attention to various aspects on development and development work within preschools. My research shows that development work is a complex phenomenon. Small factors can affect whether development takes place or not. There are factors that can help in a development work, but also factors that can overturn it. There is no quick fix for development to take place, it is a long process that requires commitment from everyone. By paying attention to these aspects, we can change and develop our preschool education much more easily. Working together can be a challenge, but it is also the strength of preschools. We need to support each other and work together for development to take place. Development takes place largely in our present actions rather than in the administrative work. The essay is divided into four chapters that show the complexity of the development work: culture, administration work, trust and practical knowledge.
