Résumé anglais |
The ensptt school's permanent « Management and Organization » review committee, which is composed of academics, experts and corporate leaders, chose as its study topic for the 1997/1998 session the structural evolution taking place within utility companies. The committee focused heavily on identifying both the causes and consequences of the appearance within such companies of an organizational structure built around branch offices which has been gradually replacing the centralized, function-oriented structures. On the basis of the committee's work, once the organizational parameters which lead to the development of branch-like structures have been elucidated, it is possible to analyze how and to what extent this type of organization challenges the principles behind the companies' creation and operations. The observation then becomes clear that these new organizational forms are nothing more than a revised reflection, adapted to the current context, of these companies' propensity to position themselves « in-between », a residual characteristic deserving today of recognition as perhaps the cornerstone of a true identity.
