I sometimes have thought that it would be useful to have access to material that people write in school. I don't mean copying, but for example when I was looking for an analysis of a book I read, and actually found a good one on the net, from somebody's school time. Below is my contribution.
Some work I did in school | ||
Thesis Word 97 |
My thesis at Stockholm School of Economics. We (me and Henrik Lundin) wrote it summer 98 at Ernst&Young. We defended it in Dec.-98, and are one step closer to cutting the ties with our educational lives. Still not there though. It ain't over til the fat lady sings. | Intellectual Capital - a business model for the knowledge economy, is the title. We look at the popularised models of Intellectual Captial in the light of the surrounding theoretical body. Mainly, our conclusion is that they are oversimplifying enormously, nevertheless, they are on the right track: to gain competitive edge, this is the path to follow. Not by trying to measure it, but manage with values. IC is just renaming good old, but unexplored, management by culture and values. We conclude by a questionnaire that examines "strategical consciusness" at Ernst&Young, and find that they are bad, as all companies are in the merciless light of the ideal. I wish we would have drawn it a little further, but summers are short and distractive in Sweden. |
Retorik Word 97 |
I busy night I wrote an analysis of two speeches of Göran Persson and Carl Bildt. It was for a course in rhetorics, and we were supposed to analyse it with classical rhetorics. It didn't turn out half as bad as I expected it to. (That is the main reason for me putting it here.) | You know, elocutio, actio, partitio, peroratio and the others. What part of the speech belongs where? How do they use the language? I concluded they use bare, naked language, and could do more. CB as a speaker lives on his credibility, GP on his appearance. NOT language. The rumours are not exagerated, the state of the (speaking) nation is disastrous. |
Bankkris Word 97 |
One of the first things I did in business school, a study on the Swedish bank crisis in the early 90s. ( |
A five to six page-paper on the Swedish financial crisis. Background, consequences, causes. Actually I am pretty fond of it the little Sweetheart. |
