The selection of participants was chosen by finding first-line managers in municipal elderly care within driving distance from me so that it was possible to conduct the interview face-to-face and not online. Semiconstructed interviews were the method chosen in this study to get rich material that could be transcribed, sorted, and reduced to later be analyzed. Findings showed that the first-line managers cared deeply about these relationships just as earlier studies have shown that the employees do. The conditions of the managers' professional role, listening to and including the employees during decision-making that affected the nursing home all played a part in the building of the relationship according to the managers. The results also showed that different kinds of leadership play a part in how well you can build a relationship with your employees. (Less)
