Tiivistelmä
Self-organization has gained a foothold in leadership conversation, and it is predicted to be the next leadership paradigm (Martela et al. 2021, 4). Buurtzorg is a great example of working self-organizing organization and it has inspired others do try it too. Self-organization has reached Finnish companies (Oodi-library and Reaktor) so it could work in healthcare also like in Netherlands. This new kind of leading could be the answer to our nursing crisis and make a chance in nurses’ turnover.
Aim was to study existing literature about the subject and find out those companies that have implemented the self-organizing methods. Objective was to find to find out how these organizations have introduced self-organization to Finnish healthcare and what effects it has had if any.
Research was done as scoping review. Only publications that that addressed Finnish healthcare were included. Also, other thesis and pro gradus were considered because the research of this field is still limited and there are not many publications yet. Those included the number of publications taken in was in total sixteen (N=16).
Results showed that self-organization has been implemented to Finnish homecare, assisted home living and other units. It was also the direction where employees and leaders wanted to go. It has had positive effects on nurse’s job satisfaction, lower turnover intentions work effectiveness and care quality.
