What is the management of artistic and cultural organizations?

Artistic and cultural organizations can be considered unique due to their specific mode of operation. On one hand, these organizations have a creative dimension and face uncertainty both in their production processes and in the outcomes of those processes. On the other hand, they deal with multiple stakeholders. They operate at the intersection of several worlds, each associated with different logics: an artistic logic, a managerial logic, and finally a political logic. In this context, the question arises as to how they are managed and how management tools are used within them.

What is collective competence?

Collective competence results from a complex alchemy, and simply bringing together individual skills is not enough to achieve it. Yet, managers still struggle to recognize it—let alone put it into practice. To better understand and manage it, a metaphor can be useful: building collective competence is like building a wall—not just with bricks, but also with foundations and mortar.

What is destination management organizations?

Destination Management Organizations (DMOs) operate within tourist destinations, which are the meeting point between a visitor-driven experience project and a territorial development project led by residents, local elected officials, and, of course, businesses. DMOs are responsible for achieving public policy objectives while embracing the complexity of their territory, which is reflected in the diversity of its stakeholders. In France, the concept of a DMO primarily refers to tourist offices. Recent research highlights the processes through which DMOs steer collective territorial action. Beyond their legal missions, they play a central role in adapting their destination to changes in the tourism sector.

How do global companies make wise choices of countries for sourcing their suppliers?

Antony, together with his colleagues from NEOMA, presents research conducted with the University of Bristol on how international companies choose countries for sourcing. The concept of "country risk," once focused on economic conditions and political stability, now includes three major sociopolitical factors: populism, which creates regulatory uncertainty; state fragility, which affects suppliers’ ability to deliver; and checks and balances, which can limit but not always prevent political drift. The study, covering 1,300 U.S. companies and their suppliers in 90 countries, shows that these factors directly influence sourcing decisions. Examples like Samsung and H&M illustrate this shift toward countries perceived as more stable. In conclusion, companies must strengthen their geopolitical monitoring to anticipate risks and secure their supply chains.
