Abstract (Swedish)

Theoretical perspective: The study applies a theoretical framework that combines corporate brand identity and organisational change theory to address the research questions.

Methodology: A qualitative multiple case study was conducted with three Australian companies who have implemented a hybrid workplace model. The thesis follows a constructionist epistemology and an abductive reasoning approach.

Empirical Material: Thirteen semi-structured interviews were conducted with a range of employees. Interview transcripts were subject to a content analysis and provided the basis for our findings and analysis.

Theoretical Findings: The hybrid model transformation is linked to the corporate brand identity to varying degrees. Moreover, changes within the corporate brand identity occur across organisations which influence the level of change adopted by the organisation. Finally, the corporate brand identity is used as a tool to guide organisations through the hybrid transformation. (Less)
