2.1 Procedure

Title : Framework agreement organisation development 2025
Description : We have 35 managers, divided between seven in the top management group and 28 departmental departments. In recent years we have recruited several new managers, both in senior management and among the departmental departments. In addition to building networks across managers, there is a need to ensure a uniform management culture in the Directorate, including the exercise of Udir ́s personnel policy. In 2025, new targets for the Directorate were approved (can be read in the award letter for 2025). The implementation of these, together with requirements and changes that come from outside, will lead to new ways of working and set other requirements for management in Udir. This includes, among other things, work on digital transformation and associated thematics, new organisational framework conditions, as well as a more agile approach to change and restructuring. This will be an ongoing work in the contract period.

Main features of the procedure : We have 35 managers, divided between seven in the top management group and 28 departmental departments. In recent years we have recruited several new managers, both in senior management and among the departmental departments. In addition to building networks across managers, there is a need to ensure a uniform management culture in the Directorate, including the exercise of Udir ́s personnel policy. In 2025, new targets for the Directorate were approved (can be read in the award letter for 2025). The implementation of these, together with requirements and changes that come from outside, will lead to new ways of working and set other requirements for management in Udir. This includes, among other things, work on digital transformation and associated thematics, new organisational framework conditions, as well as a more agile approach to change and restructuring. This will be an ongoing work in the contract period. A framework for the continual management development of the Directorate has also been adopted for the extension of new targets. The framework refers to the means we have and believes it makes sense to use and should be able to stand up over time. The thematic content and commitments in the framework can, however, be changed over time. Nevertheless, the framework provides a predictability for how the management development shall progress over time in Udir. The framework also represents a desire to put management development in a more continuous course, rather than implementing a management development programme every few years. Several managers in the Directorate have, from time to time, a need for assistance in processes at different levels. There can be individual cases that arise, group development, development work in department/division etc. Topics we see signing up in this connection are, among other things: handling conflict, changes that groups/department/division are facing, management group development, guidance/coaching of individual managers etc.
