A bibliometric analysis of the literature on non-financial information reporting: Review of the research and network visualization

2022

[EN] This paper presents a bibliometric analysis of articles on the topic of non-financial information (NFI) reporting. The exponential growth over the last decade (90% of the articles were published in the last 10 years) indicates the relevance of the topic, but little is known about the structure and extent of research in this academic field. The purpose of this article is to provide a structured and up-to-date picture of the state of the art on the topic. We analyse the most relevant articles, authors, journals, countries and organizations. The analysis includes 3113 articles, collected from the Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection from 1970 —when the first two articles on the topic were…

Le dialogue avec les parties prenantes dans l’exercice de la RSE : caractéristiques clés pour une prise de parole collective et effective

2021

National audience; Des appels à un changement radicale des modes de production accentuent la responsabilité sociale des entreprises. Cette notion de responsabilité longtemps affiliée à la satisfaction des seuls actionnaires est aujourd’hui tournée vers d’autres acteurs tout aussi exigeants, au-delà des frontières de l’entreprise. La responsabilité sociale de l’entreprise se traduit par une pression omniprésente qui contraint les entreprises à s’adapter. Cette adaptation passe par l’intégration des préoccupations liées à l’environnement, aux questions sociales et sociétales dans la conduite de leurs activités (Gond et ali., 2011 : 121). Elle passe aussi par la prise en compte de l’ensemble d…

The goal of the research is to assess the impact of IMC for sustainability upon demand at Latvian food retail chains and the impact of the use of IMC for sustainability upon…

Competence Utilization for Innovation Capabilities - A Question of Trust?

2015

The purpose of this paper is to show how trust as an organizational value contributes to employee competence utilization in the case of innovation capability. Thus, it is the objective of this paper to analyze the positive impacts, but also potential limits of trust in business management. The research paper uses two different quantitative empirical studies drawn from German and Austrian mid-sized companies to empirically test this interrelation. As a result, the paper determines particular aspects of trust such as accountability, shared norms and the ability to take responsibility to be interrelated with the usage of employee competences and underlines a positive connection between product…

Governance of global value chains after the Covid-19 pandemic: A new wave of regionalization?

2021

The disruption of the trade and investment activities of multinational enterprises as a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic has reinvigorated the debate on the configuration of global value chains (GVCs) as well as the risks and challenges associated with offshoring. This article depicts how the pandemic might affect GVC configuration by driving a trend toward a more regional footprint in industries in which resilience and reliability are critical. Such a shift would create new opportunities for reshoring, and affect both the types of upgrading trajectories and the governance systems in value chains. The article also draws from the intersection of the global-strategy and value-chain field…

Déni du travail et tyrannie des normes

2012

Based on the example of two quality processes deployed at the SNCF in the field of the service encounter, the aim of this article is to explore, from a clinical point of view, organizational mechanisms which encourage the denial of work. The norms of services previously defined contributed to the front office agents' denial of work, essentially because the respect of these norms became an ultimate finality. This situation has induced an "annoyed activity" (CLOT, 2009) among the front office agents, owing to the fact that the norms have been perceived as a hindrance to the accomplishment of a high-grade work. In the two previous practical examples, the reality (of work), the real work (in op…

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSABILITY IN THE CURRENT GLOBAL ECONOMIC CONTEXT

2012

In the current economic context, the social issue has become a major preoccupation for the current activity of the organizations that aim to create performance. This is because the modern organization is evaluated also from the point of view of its contribution to the social life of the community it belongs to. As Sophocles said “all benefactors think a little bit also about themselves”. Nowadays, managers not only do they have to lead the activities of the economic organizations in a profitable way, but also have to be responsible for the impact of these activities. Therefore, when confronted to the numerous opportunities and dangers, current companies and managers must find economically, …

L'articulation des usages diagnostique et interactif d'un seul et même système de contrôle de gestion : le cas d'un système d'indicateurs environneme…

2013

With the conceptual framework of control levers of Simons (1995), this article shows how to coordinate diagnostic and interactive uses of the same "management control system" (in this case a system of environmental indicators) for the deployment and the emergence of new strategies. In contrast to the literature, we propose an articulation "in parallel" of levers of control as alternative to sliding levers of control. These results are obtained from a case study in a French wine and spirits subject to large strategic environmental uncertainties.
