Le changement n'est pas une chose qui peut être décidée mais plutôt quelque chose qui se fabrique. Selon un processus cadencé, de nombreuses études en gouvernance et en management stratégique placent les middle managers au cœur des analyses. Bien plus que des relais, ils conduisent le changement et contribuent à définir les compétences organisationnelles pour de meilleures performances. La conduite du changement peut être appréhendée au travers des études portant sur des aspects cognitifs ainsi qu'au travers de la Responsabilité Sociale de l'Entreprise (RSE) : celle-ci offre une occasion idéale aux middle managers de se rapprocher de la Direction Générale. Aborder ces thématiques implique un focus particulier sur le pouvoir des acteurs tout en considérant des notions de légitimité et d'urgence (Mitchell et al., 1997). Cette approche dynamique et cognitive permet de comprendre davantage les tensions partenariales quotidiennes et comment elles sont gérées. Dans ce travail, les middle managers figurent comme des instrumentalisateurs (ou manipulateurs), capables d'actionner des leviers relationnels (pouvoir, légitimité et urgence). La manière d'utiliser la politique de RSE dans leurs pratiques quotidiennes permet à ces managers d'évoluer dans le noyau stratégique organisationnel. A partir d'une étude exploratoire puis d'une étude de cas unique concernant MEDIAPOST (filiale du Groupe La Poste, spécialisée dans le courrier non-adressé), complétée par un focus partiel sur quatre grandes entreprises (Schneider Electric, Michelin, GDF Suez et Saint Gobain), ce travail étudie les systèmes de relations dans le cadre d'une transformation perpétuelle. Il propose une typologie de middle managers et un comportement type d'instrumentalisation de la RSE. Le modèle identifie différents profils : le pilote stratégique, le défendeur stratégique, le modérateur stratégique et le négociateur ou facilitateur stratégique selon trois degrés d'instrumentalisation (nulle, partielle et forte).

Risk management practices are growing both in number and complexity in businesses, notably driven by new regulatory standards that feature risk management at their core. Although large businesses are more likely to adopt a formal, holistic approach to risk management, the stakes are just as high for SMEs. Risk management in SMEs can contribute to a certain organizational, entrepreneurial and partnership dynamic which constitutes a real opportunity to evolve practices and improve performance. This book offers varied responses to this question by combining conceptual approaches, empirical illustrations and the associated managerial implications.

La dernière décennie a été marquée par une multiplication des appels institutionnels en faveur de la Responsabilité Sociale de l'Entreprise. Cet appel institutionnel quasi-généralisé aussi bien à l'échelle nationale qu'internationale est largement relayé par les dirigeants d'entreprises qui considèrent que la réduction des dommages collatéraux et l'intégration des préoccupations sociales et environnementales des parties prenantes sont des éléments incontournables dans le développement de leurs entreprises. L'objectif de ce travail doctoral est de comprendre comment se construit la responsabilité sociale dans l'entreprise. Nous traitons d'une problématique bien particulière en matière de responsabilité sociale : l'internalisation des effets externes négatifs. De manière plus précise, nous mettons en évidence les démarches organisationnelles ainsi que les acteurs qui participent à l'internalisation de tels effets. Nos analyses se focalisent sur les middle managers qui apparaissent comme des contributeurs essentiels à l'internalisation des effets externes.

Over the last decade the question of the relationship between organizations and society has been subject to much debate, often of a critical nature. The decade has seen protests concerning the actions of organizations, exposures of corporate exploitation and unfolding accounting scandals. At the same time ethical behaviour and a concern for the environment have been shown to have a positive correlation with corporate performance. The nature of corporate social responsibility is therefore a topical one for businesses and academics. There are, however, many different perspectives upon what is meant by corporate social responsibility and how this might be applied within organizations. The authors involved are respected academics from a variety of disciplines from around the world. The contributions to this book investigate theoretical perspectives on the topic, the application in practice of socially responsible behaviour and the ethical dimension of such behaviour.

Process Engineering, the science and art of transforming raw materials and energy into a vast array of commercial materials, was conceived at the end of the 19th Century. Its history in the role of the Process Industries has been quite honorable, and techniques and products have contributed to improve health, welfare and quality of life. Today, industrial enterprises, which are still a major source of wealth, have to deal with new challenges in a global world. They need to reconsider their strategy taking into account environmental constraints, social requirements, profit, competition, and resource depletion. “Systems thinking” is a prerequisite from process development at the lab level to good project management. New manufacturing concepts have to be considered, taking into account LCA, supply chain management, recycling, plant flexibility, continuous development, process intensification and innovation. This book combines experience from academia and industry in the field of industrialization, i.e. in all processes involved in the conversion of research into successful operations. Enterprises are facing major challenges in a world of fierce competition and globalization. Process engineering techniques provide Process Industries with the necessary tools to cope with these issues. The chapters of this book give a new approach to the management of technology, projects and manufacturing. Contents Part 1: The Company as of Today 1.
