Development of hybrid professionalism
This paper examines the role of street-level managers in the development of hybrid professionalism. Based on a longitudinal analysis of an organizational reform, we highlight the work of street-level managers in promoting a hybrid ‘social work-like’ professionalism to reconcile social work professionalism with managerial bureaucracy. We highlight four managerial activities – organizational design, discursive reconstruction, R&D project mobilizati…
A knowledge hierarchy in labour and welfare services? Evidence‐based and practice‐based knowledge in frontline service innovation
Although policy‐makers and scholars have directed increasing attention towards collaborative innovation and knowledge development between frontline agencies and workers and other stakeholders such as citizens and researchers, empirical research has not focused on the (varying) assessment of collaborators regarding what knowledge is “appropriate” to develop. In this article, we examine such knowledge assessments by drawing on a comparative case st…
Hvorfor lykkes ikke NAV-kontorene med å jobbe mer arbeidsrettet?
En sentral forklaring på NAVs manglende måloppnåelse om flere i arbeid og aktivitet og færre på trygd har vært omstillingsprosessen med den lokale etableringen av NAV-kontorene. I denne artikkelen drøfter vi en alternativ forklaring som involverer mer langsiktige strukturelle utfordringer for NAV-kontorene. Basert på kvalitative og kvantitative data fra ti NAV-kontorer skisserer vi tre strukturelle utfordringer: (a) Arbeids- og velferdsdirektorat…
Managing Institutional Complexity in Public Sector Reform
In this article, we explore how public front‐line service organizations respond to contradictory demands for institutional reform and the types of hybridization this entails. Our research context is a major administrative welfare reform in Norway characterized by a dominant New Public Management ( NPM ) logic of uniform user service and central administrative control, and a subordinate post‐ NPM logic of holistic user service and local organizati…
Utfordrende inkluderingspolitikk - Samstyring for omforming av institusjonell logikk i arbeidslivet, helsetjenesten og NAV
Inkluderingspolitikken bak NAV-reformen og IA-avtalen utfordrer forståelsen av ansvar og oppgaver i de feltene som skal realisere den – arbeidslivet, NAV-feltet og helsetjenesten. Perspektivet om institusjonell logikk anvendes for å få tak på de utfordringene som innarbeidede forståelser og praksiser representerer i realiseringen av inkluderingspolitikken. Tenkningen om samstyring belyser styringsmidlene som er tatt i bruk og betingelsene for at …
