Professional Perspectives on Organisation, Leadership and Working Life
On Hjort & Frøik’s blog, we share professional perspectives, experiences and reflections on leadership, organisation and working life in a time characterised by complexity and change.
The articles are based on our work in and with organisations and revolve around the conditions that people and leadership work under in practice. The focus is not on quick solutions, but on insight, nuances and understanding – which can strengthen judgment, reflection and action in organisations over time.
The blog is a place for professional immersion and reflection. Here we examine the connections between strategy, culture, structure and human conditions – and share perspectives that can provide new insights into familiar challenges.
The blog is organised into three professional areas. You can immerse yourself in one theme – or read all articles together.
Leadership, Culture and Organisational Development
Perspectives on leadership, culture and change from the inside – with a focus on meaning, learning and anchoring in practice.
Working Life, Well-being and Psychosocial Working Environment
Reflections on working life conditions, well-being and mental health in organisations – with an eye to both people and task solving.
Organisation, Roles and Talent
Professional perspectives on organisation, roles and talent – and how structure and competencies can support strategic direction and development.
