Investigating Leadership Qualities to Support Sustainable Intervention Effects in the Long Term |
2013 - 2025 |
Purpose: Over several years, we have been studying an organizational health intervention that has been evaluated as successful in terms of both its implementation process and the expected effects. It is crucial to understand how interventions can be designed and delivered to support successful and sustainable effects in the long term. Intervention leadership can be important in this regard, but we do not know enough about the leader qualities that can help to sustain the effects of a successful intervention in the longer term. Methodology: In this paper, we have expanded on a former evaluation of this longitudinal project and added some new information through 11 interviews about the role of leadership in the intervention process and outcomes. Findings: We found that an engaged line manager through building empowerment and trust, establishing a work group, and supportive use of external consultants is essential in promoting employee motivation and involvement. Practical implications: Building good intervention leadership through engagement, trust, and accountability is important for sustainable intervention effects. |

Lyden av trivsel («The sound of well-being»)

There has been an increased interest in organizational interventions aiming to improve the psychosocial work environment and the well-being and health of employees. In a previous cross-sectional study (Vaag, Saksvik, Theorell, Skillingstad, & Bjerkeset, in press), of an organizational intervention called “Sound of Well-being”, we found that there were significant differences between participants and non-participants on several demographic variables, as well as differences in engagement, commitment and self-described positive change in psychosocial and health variables. We have also evaluated the intervention “Sound of Well-being” (SOW) in a different organization, using a more sophisticated design. |

Sunne omstillings-prosesser «Healthy organizational change»
|
01.06.01 - |
The point of departure has been in a new paragraph of the Work Environment Act of Norway where the content of the change process was defined as information, participation, and competence development. During our research we found that the three concepts of the law could be operationalized and understood better in daily practice through the following categories: awareness of local norms and diversity among employees in the perception and reactions to change efforts, early role clarification, manager availability, and using constructive conflicts.
