L'efficacité des privatisations françaises : une vision dynamique à travers la théorie de la gouvernance
2004
International audience; A reading of the process of privatization through the corporate governance theory leads to propose a model taking into account, on the one hand, the time dimension of the process of privatization, on the other hand, the contextual, organizational, governance and strategic variables which influence this process. After replicating some traditional tests, we test this model on a sample of French privatized firms and on a seven years horizon. The positive effect traditionally attributed to privatizations is not confirmed. The importance of the effect is subordinated to some of the suggested variables.; Une lecture du processus de privatisation à travers la théorie de la …

Struggle over joint audit: on behalf of public interest?
2012
International audience; European Commission (EC 2011) has recently suggested joint audit - broadly defined as an audit where two independent auditors are jointly liable for the audit report - as a way a way to increase audit quality after the financial crisis and to mitigate audit market concentration, by enlarging the audit offer. Big 4 audit firms have fought this proposal by arguing its unbearable cost while 2nd Tier audit firms have supported it by arguing its added quality. This conflicting position leads us to question their claim of public interest concern. As group-interest economic regulation theories predict that the absence of any effect of a new regulation (here: joint audit) is…
Les apports du modèle de recherches d'expériences à l'analyse du comportement dans le domaine culturel Une exploration conceptuelle et méthodologique
1995
International audience; Le modèle de recherche d'expériences de Holbrook et Hirschman a été présenté par ses auteurs comme un cadre conceptuel bien adapté à l'analyse des comportements dans le domaine culturel. Cette recherche analyse la capacité de variables explicatives des différences interindividuelles retenues par ce modèle à expliquer des différences dans les évocations affectives du théâtre par le public. La méthodologie mise en œuvre s'appuie sur l'analyse statistique de données textuelles recueillies auprès des différents segments de spectateurs.
Another "French paradox": explaining why interest rates to microenterprises dit not increase with the change in French usury legislation
2015
Conventional wisdom indicates that the growth of credit may not materialize if credit rates remain capped by usury laws, as had long been the case in France. France therefore abolished usury ceilings on loans to microenterprise in an effort to increase financing for microentrepreneurs. This should have led to an increase in interest rates and increase in microcredit. However, we do not find any increase in interest rates and this is therefore a paradox. The paper provides a brief literature review and the salient features of the legislative changes in France. It follows this up with a presentation of interest rate movements. The discussion of possible explanations of the paradox includes cl…
Keski-Suomen yritysten historiatietoisuus
2021
Tämä raportti on osa Jyväskylän yliopiston monitieteistä Menestystä menneisyydestä -tutkimushanketta, jossa selvitetään yritysten historiatietoisuutta. Raportin teko ei olisi ollut mahdollista ilman Keski-Suomen liiton ja Business Finlandin rahoitusta – kiitos molemmille tärkeästä tuesta tutkimushankkeelle. Kiitos myös Keski-Suomen Yrittäjille ja Keski-Suomen kauppakamarille, joiden verkostojen kautta kysely levisi keskisuomalaisyrityksille. Raportti on pohjana tutkimushankkeen seuraaville vaiheille, joissa sekä syvennytään tarkemmin yksittäisten yritysten historiatietoisuuteen että laajennetaan analyysiä valtakunnalliselle tasolle.
Management von Kundenbeziehungen durch Brand Communities
2010
Das Marketing wurde in den letzten Jahrzehnten durch die Betrachtung von dyadischen Beziehungen zwischen Anbietern und Nachfragern dominiert (Bruhn/Georgi 2006). Dabei verstand man Transaktionen zunachst als diskrete (voneinander unabhangige) Ereignisse, spater auch als relationale Phanomene (Bruhn 2002a; 2002b). Die Marketingtheorie und -praxis vernachlassigte (mit wenigen Ausnahmen) jedoch, Interaktionen zwischen Konsumenten zu analysieren. Gerade Begegnungen zwischen Individuen beeinflussen jedoch deren Wahrnehmung, Beurteilung und Akzeptanz von Produkten und Marken (Bearden/Etzel 1982). Die isolierte Betrachtung des Konsumentenverhaltens als Entscheidung Einzelner ist daher um Einflusse…
Deliberation favours social efficiency by making people disregard their relative shares: evidence from USA and India
2017
Groups make decisions on both the production and the distribution of resources. These decisions typically involve a tension between increasing the total level of group resources (i.e. social efficiency) and distributing these resources among group members (i.e. individuals' relative shares). This is the case because the redistribution process may destroy part of the resources, thus resulting in socially inefficient allocations. Here we apply a dual-process approach to understand the cognitive underpinnings of this fundamental tension. We conducted a set of experiments to examine the extent to which different allocation decisions respond to intuition or deliberation. In a newly developed app…
Are Intercultural Competences at the Center of Job-Market Demands ?
2020
International audience; This chapter introduces the theoretical framework upon which this study was based before going on to set out the methodology used and detail the main results found. It discusses results in the light of scientific literature on the issue and their managerial implications. With the internationalization of organizational structures, the development of intercultural competences was often considered a strategic benefit. Indeed, companies are sensitive to the cultural diversity of their worldwide branches and to the international competences developed by their employees. Through organizational internationalization, intercultural competences become strategic resources. Alth…
