Download or read book Les grands courants en management strat gique written by Sébastien Liarte and published by Éditions EMS. This book was released on 2019-11-21 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage a pour objectif de présenter de manière complète et didactique les principaux courants de recherche s’intéressant actuellement au management stratégique des entreprises. À la fois porte d’entrée et source de réflexions, chaque chapitre présente les fondements des différents courants, leurs préoccupations actuelles ainsi que les perspectives de recherche pour l’avenir. Au total, ce sont seize courants qui ont été retenus et qui sont présentés dans cet ouvrage. Certains représentent des approches déjà anciennes mais toujours utilisées (approches discursives, néo-institutionnelles, ressources, décision, etc.) ; d’autres concernent des courants théoriques beaucoup plus récents dans le paysage de la recherche en management stratégique (business model, coopétition, évaluation sociale, performativité, etc.) . Certains abordent avec précision une thématique particulière (les ressources, la connaissance, le business model, etc.). D’autres s’avèrent beaucoup plus transversaux ou sectoriels (les industries créatives, la responsabilité sociale de l’entreprise, etc.). De plus, les approches disciplinaires évoquées dans cet ouvrage sont multiples et mêlent, comme souvent en sciences de gestion, la sociologie, l’économie, la psychologie, l’histoire et quelques autres disciplines connexes. Enfin, l’encastrement de ces différentes approches dans l’évolution de la pratique de la recherche et de l’enseignement est également abordé à travers deux chapitres. Au-delà de l’exhaustivité dans leur recensement, c’est la vitalité actuelle de ces approches dans la recherche en management stratégique, notamment francophone, qui a prévalu dans la sélection présentée. Chacun des chapitres a été rédigé par un ou plusieurs spécialistes ayant contribué personnellement à l’approche retenue. Cette raison justifie également la volonté de présenter, parallèlement aux racines, auteurs fondateurs et problématiques actuelles, les lieux de recherche où sont étudiées ces approches. Cet ouvrage s’adresse à tout public désirant découvrir et approfondir les courants majeurs de la recherche en management stratégique à travers une synthèse, une critique et une mise en perspective des travaux existants dans le domaine. En se rendant accessible au plus grand nombre, tout en répondant aux plus exigeants, cet ouvrage saura répondre aux attentes des étudiant(e)s de l’université et des grandes écoles ainsi qu’auprès de tous les chercheurs(ses) en sciences de gestion.

Download or read book Innovation Economics Engineering and Management Handbook 1 written by Dimitri Uzunidis and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-07-21 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovation, in economic activity, in managerial concepts and in engineering design, results from creative activities, entrepreneurial strategies and the business climate. Innovation leads to technological, organizational and commercial changes, due to the relationships between enterprises, public institutions and civil society organizations. These innovation networks create new knowledge and contribute to the dissemination of new socio-economic and technological models, through new production and marketing methods. Innovation Economics, Engineering and Management Handbook 1 is the first of the two volumes that comprise this book. The main objectives across both volumes are to study the innovation processes in todays information and knowledge society; to analyze how links between research and business have intensified; and to discuss the methods by which innovation emerges and is managed by firms, not only from a local perspective but also a global one. The studies presented in these two volumes contribute toward an understanding of the systemic nature of innovations and enable reflection on their potential applications, in order to think about the meaning of growth and prosperity.

Download or read book The Power of Being Divisive written by Thomas J. Roulet and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decade, research on negative social evaluations, from adverse reputation to extreme stigmatization, has burgeoned both at the individual and organizational level. Thus far, this research has largely focused on major corporate risks. Corporate public relations and business executives intuitively know that a negative image deters important relationships—from customers and partners, to applicants, stakeholders, and potential funding. At the same time, business is conducted in an age of heightened connection, including digital platforms for criticism and a 24-hour news cycle. Executives know that some degree of public disapproval is increasingly unavoidable. Negative social evaluations can also put social actors on the map. In the era of identity politics, many political leaders express controversial views to appeal to specific audiences and gain in popularity. Through network and signaling effects, being controversial can potentially pay off. Thomas J. Roulet offers a framework for understanding not only how individuals and organizations can survive in an age of increasing scrutiny, but how negative social evaluations can surprisingly yield positive results. A growing body of work has begun to show that being "up against the rest" is an active driver of corporate identity, and that firms that face strong public hostility can benefit from internal bonding. Synthesizing this work with his original research, and drawing comparisons to work on misconduct and scandals, Roulet addresses an important gap by providing a broader perspective to link the antecedents and consequences of negative social evaluations. Moreover, he reveals the key role that audiences play in assessing these consequences, whether positive or negative, and the crucial function of media in establishing conditions in which public disapproval can bring positive results. Examples and cases cover Uber and Google, Monsanto, Electronic Arts, and the investment banking industry during the financial crisis.

Download or read book Perspectives on the State Borders in Globalized Africa written by Yuichi Sasaoka and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-02-25 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assessing the different kinds of borders between African nations, the contributors present a borderland and trans-region approach to understanding the challenges and opportunities facing the peoples of the African continent. Africa faces rampant violence, terrorism, deterioration of water-energy-food provision, influxes of refugees and immigrants, and religious hatred under the trends of globalization. Solutions for these issues require new perspectives that are not attempted by conventional state-building approaches. Statehood is limited in many places on the African continent because many states are combined by loose political ties. African states’ borders tend to be regarded as porous and fragile. However, as the contributors to this volume argue, those porous borders can contribute to cultural and socio-economic network construction beyond states and the creation of active borderlands by increasing people’s mobility, contact, and trade. A must read for scholars of African studies that will also be of great value to academics and students with a broader interest in nationhood, globalization, and borders.

Download or read book Ecological Money and Finance written by Thomas Lagoarde-Segot and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-04-13 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a detailed overview of ecological money and finance. The functioning and development of the monetary and financial systems are analysed in relation to sustainability constraints to highlight the actions required to meet the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda. Empirical case studies are utilized to give insight into the failure of the traditional financial system, with ways in which they can be overcome also considered. This book adopts a pluralist perspective to revisit the foundations of financial and monetary economics from a sustainability perspective, and examines the economic and financial instruments that can be used to combat ecological challenges. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in ecological economics and sustainable finance.

Download or read book The Sustainable City in Africa Facing the Challenge of Liquid Sanitation written by Esoh Elamé and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2023-04-19 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book questions the role of liquid sanitation in the development of cities in Africa. The absence of sewerage networks and treatment plants in African cities already submerged by rapid and anarchic urbanization is a major problem. To meet this challenge, it is urgent to rethink urban water governance and impose and enforce sustainable urban planning standards. In other words, sanitation issues must now be placed at the heart of urban planning.

Download or read book Management Control and Creativity written by Sophie Bollinger and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-01-04 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovation is an essential growth lever for organizations. Like any strategic element, it must be managed to ensure the right decision is made at the right time. When we talk about management, we naturally also consider management control. However, using management tools can be a danger to developing creativity – an essential element of innovation. This book examines the interdependencies between management control and creativity. By comparing two organizational contexts, we highlight the vital role of organizations as generators of creativity. We also underline the acceptance of an imbalance between the elements in tension, which can lead to the questioning and fostering of innovation; and the role of senior management as mediators between organizations and local actors.
