Chefsrollens betydelse ur ett kommunikativt perspektiv : - Om villkoren för ett kommunikativt ledarskap

Sammanfattning: My purpose with this paper was to examine how four of the administrative managers at health and care, at the municipality perceive their communicative roles and how that affects the municipality. I also wanted to examine how a communicative leadership can be expressed and what kind of support a communicative leader needs. I used a qualitative method and semi structured interview to perform my study. I have chosen to analyze my results from the study with the help of theories about the difference between information and communication, how the perception of communication and information has changed over time, how different ideal types of communicative leadership is experienced and what the requirements are for a good communicative leadership. The results of the study show that the perceptioncommunication in relation to information differs between the administrative managers. The managers mainly communicate with the employees in group. If the communication concerns the daily job, the managers choose to handle it themselves. They all think that a consistent and professional communication favors the municipality in whole.The budget and annual report are mentioned as fundamentatools to communicate goals and visions to employees.
