L’objectif de cet article, qui appréhende l’innovation comme un phénomène multidimensionnel est d’analyser l’impact des déterminants organisationnels, e...

This article explores public innovations implemented by local authorities, which consider them as a key means of improving their performance in response to a restrictive context. The authors thus propose to grasp the impacts of these innovations in terms of perceived performance from a global and multidimensional point of view. Based on a quantitat...

Although innovation is now considered to be the main lever for improving local public performance, there is little research on its dynamics and determinants. The objective of this of this research, which considers innovation as a multidimensional phenomenon, is to analyze the impact of organizational, environmental and managerial determinants on th...

The objective of this research is to explore the relations between different categories of managerial innovations in public organizations. This paper aims to characterize the nature of the links between the implementation of an innovation and the subsequent adoption of a second, “follow-on” innovation. Our research, which integrates the specific di...

A review of the literature on performance management models in public organizations shows that authors’ visions of public performance are incomplete and do not adequately take into account important developments in the discipline. Having conducted a survey of French local government, we put forward a characterization and a definition of public perf...

The use of Performance-Based Management (PBM) by French public organizations has sharply accelerated over the last few years. Moreover, very few studies have analyzed this change. The object of this article is thus to conduct an in-depth analysis of the dynamics of managerial innovation in three French local authorities via the study of the factors...

While innovative management approaches strongly increase at local authorities and public organizations, research that analyzes the factors that facilitate the adoption of these approaches is rare. There is a lack of studies that investigate specifically the different stages of the adoption process (decision to adopt, adoption and implementation, in...

(VF)Cet article vise à approfondir la compréhension des caractéristiques associées au succès du partenariat logistique. Nous faisons l’hypothèse que la confiance et le contrôle sont positivement reliés au succès du partenariat vertical logistique et analysons les liens entre ces variables. Ces hypothèses sont testées à l’aide d’un modèle d’équation...

This paper aims at a greater understanding of characteristics associated with success of the logistics partnership. We hypothesize that trust and control are positively related to indicator of partnership success (satisfaction) and analyse the relationships between these variables. Then we try to test these hypotheses using a structural equations m...

Bien que répandues et en constante augmentation, les manœuvres de partenariats connaissent un taux d'échec relativement important. Cet état de fait associé à la faiblesse des recherches portant sur les processus de gestion et la mise en œuvre des partenariats légitiment un questionnement sur les facteurs de réussite des manœuvres de partenariat. En...

Cet article nuance ces arguments en démontrant que les villes, partant d’une simple logique...
