untitled The Gallup Path by Gagandeep Anand on Prezi Quarante ans de belgitude. Nommer l’indéfinissable ? En novembre 1976, Pierre Mertens et Claude Javeau questionnaient l’identité belge [1], chacun à travers le prisme qui était le sien, les lettres pour l’un, la sociologie pour l’autre. Cette interrogation surgissait dans une décennie qui s’était ouverte sur une première réforme de l’État ayant donné naissance aux communautés culturelles. De leurs contributions au dossier intitulé Une autre Belgique, un terme naissait : la belgitude. Face à la tâche ardue de définir ce que signifie « être belge » et à la tentation d’une définition en creux, Pierre Mertens décrivait la Belgique comme une « terre d’exil, d’exil intérieur » où le Belge se vivrait « comme un nègre blanc ». Il nous a semblé important, quarante ans plus tard, de revenir sur l’invention du terme belgitude et de l’interroger au présent. Dans « Les avatars d’un néologisme », Jacques De Decker décrit la genèse et l’évolution de ce terme né dans le microcosme de l’intelligentsia bruxelloise francophone.

Types of Organizational Designs Types of Organizational Designs Organizational designs fall into two categories, traditional and contemporary. Traditional designs include simple structure, functional structure, and divisional structure. Contemporary designs would include team structure, matrix structure, project structure, boundaryless organization, and the learning organization. I. 1. 2. 3. II. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. The Process Audit This purpose of this article is to describe a framework Hammer refers to as the Process and Enterprise Maturity Model (PEMM). The model emphasizes a whole systems' view where managers think in terms of end-to-end processes rather than activities or functions, and develop process oriented people rather than supervising and rewarding people for focusing on narrow functional goals. The model includes five process enablers and four enterprise capabilities. The process enablers include: Design - how the process is to be executed, Performers - the knowledge and skills of the people involved, Owner - the senior executive responsible for the process, Infrastructure - the systems that support the process, and Metrics - the measurements used to track the performance of the process. The four enterprise capabilities are: A table based on the process enablers is presented to facilitate an assessment of the maturity of a company's processes (See pp. 116-117).

The Copernican Revolution In Management Earlier this week, the Financial Times published a pair of important articles that asked why leading business schools are still teaching one of the obsolete pillars of 20th Century management, namely, that the goal of a firm is to maximize short-term shareholder value: “While there is growing consensus that focusing on short-term shareholder value is not only bad for society but also leads to poor business results, much MBA teaching remains shaped by the shareholder primacy model.” The FT concludes that moving away from this model will be difficult “for reasons ranging from the tenure system to institutional inertia.” However it’s not just the individual impediments that hold back change. The transition will be more disruptive. The shift is as fundamental in scope and implications as the Copernican Revolution in astronomy.
