Deconstructing the Way in Which Value is Created in the Context of Social Entrepreneurship
According to existing literature, the core of social entrepreneurship (SE) knowledge is evolving and, as such, it has made important contributions to theoretical definitions and essential characterizations. However, more theoretical issues need to be addressed before the SE field can be fully explained and understood. In particular, the authors observe in the literature that, within empirical or conceptual studies, almost all authors use the term 'value', but seemingly assume the dimensions of value rather than define or analyse its connotations and components. This paper uses the value construct and its multi-faceted dimensions to deconstruct the way in which value is created in the SE cont...
Analyse des données qualitatives
L'ouvrage est un recueil de nouvelles méthodes d'analyse qualitative des données. Il rassemble de manière cohérente un ensemble d'outils efficaces, encourage leur utilisation et surtout, leur perfectionnement. La démarche est aussi directe et concrète que possible. Chaque chapitre débute par une réflexion sur des méthodes spécifiques. Pour chacune des méthodes proposées, des illustrations sont présentées, assez détaillées pour permettre au lecteur d'en comprendre le fonctionnement, de les mettre en pratique et de les adapter au cours de travaux ultérieurs. Le message fondamental de ce livre n'est pas qu'il faut appliquer scrupuleusement les méthodes suggérées, mais que la création, la vérification et la révision de méthodes d'analyse pratiques et efficaces doivent être une priorité absolue pour les chercheurs qualitatifs. Ce livre intéressera tout particulièrement les professeurs, les étudiants de 3e cycle et les chercheurs en sciences humaines et sociales et en sciences de gestion.
La méthode des cas
Cet ouvrage traite des méthodes qualitatives en gestion, et plus particulièrement, de l'étude de cas comme stratégie de recherche adaptée au décryptage de la complexité organisationnelle. L'objectif est double : la compréhension des spécificités de cet outil de recherche d'une part, la fourniture d'un accompagnement technique d'autre part. La première partie de l'ouvrage positionne l'étude de cas au sein des méthodes de recherche empiriques, en insistant sur les impératifs méthodologiques à respecter. La deuxième partie expose les temps de collecte, d'analyse et de construction de récits propres à la démarche. Tout au long de l'ouvrage, des exemples détaillés d'études sont fournis. Ils guident le lecteur de façon illustrative et concrète sur l'ensemble des aspects théoriques et pratiques de la méthode. Le livre intéressera les professeurs et étudiants des 2e et 3e cycles en gestion et marketing, les professionnels et les consultants d'entreprise.
Entrepreneurial Universities
With an increasing focus on the knowledge and service economies, it is important to understand the role that entrepreneurial universities play through collaboration in policy and, in turn, the impact they have on policy. The authors evaluate how universities engage with communities while also balancing stakeholder considerations, and explore how universities should be managed in the future to integrate into global society effectively.
Social Entrepreneurship and Bricolage
This book provides new insights into how the concept of bricolage is used to foster research on social entrepreneurship. The contributors assess the relevance of the concept from a theoretical point of view, questioning the concept and its relationships with similar concepts or theories, like those of effectuation and improvisation; use the concept of bricolage to study processes by which social entrepreneurs make their business grow; and investigate the diversity of social entrepreneurial situations and, as a consequence, the variety of forms (and effects) of bricolage practices. The primary objective of this book is thus to shed light on bricolage in social entrepreneurship, especially at the intersection of different levels of analysis and in different contexts. It takes stock of existing research at the intersection of both concepts and looks at future research avenues. This book was originally published as a special issue of Entrepreneurship and Regional Development.

Project Management in Extreme Situations
The growing complexity of projects today, as well as the uncertainty inherent in innovative projects, is making obsolete traditional project management practices and procedures, which are based on the notion that much about a project is known at its start. The current high level of change and complexity confronting organizational leaders and managers requires a new approach to projects so they can be managed flexibly to embrace and exploit change. What once used to be considered extreme uncertainty is now the norm, and managing planned projects is being replaced by managing projects as they evolve. Successfully managing projects in extreme situations, such as polar and military expeditions, ...
