L’influence des Technologies de l’Information et de la Communication sur les Petites et Moyennes Entreprises camerounaises : cas des semi-grossistes
No full textNational audienceThe affecting of Information and Communication Technologies on Cameroonian Small and Medium size enterprises: case of semi-wholesalersThe goal of this paper is to show the influence of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) on Cameroonian Small and Medium sized Enterprises (SME) which operate as semi wholesalers. The Theoretical Framework is based on transaction cost theory and the process-oriented model proposed by Mooney, Gurbaxani and Kraener (2001). The latest model is more elaborate than simple correlation models between investment in ICT and key performance indicators, and helps to explain how ICT improve processes, transform organisational frameworks and change the competitive landscape. The qualitative analysis of the information gathered from six SMEs, shows that the use of basic ICT tools allows them to achieve important operational gains by reducing costs and saving time thanks to process improvement or transformation, and provide strategic benefits notably by a more diverse choice of suppliers. However, no or little use is made of more elaborate tools for the fight against theft or for the control of expiry dates of food products. This is due to ignorance or resistance from some employees
Perceived identity threat and organizational cynicism in the recursive relationship between psychological contract breach and counterproductive work behavior
No full textInternational audienceCounterproductive work behavior toward the organization (CWB-O) or supervisor (CWB-S) is commonly treated as a consequence of psychological contract breach (PCB). However, drawing from Self-Consistency Theory, the authors in this article argue that the PCB–CWB relationship is recursive through two mediating mechanisms: self-identity threat and organizational cynicism. Furthermore, the authors predict that the relationship between feelings of violation and CWB-O (or CWB-S) would depend on the extent to which the victim attributed blame to the organization (or supervisor). Using weekly and daily survey data, the study found that identity threat was a stronger mediator for recursive CWB–PCB relationships. Moreover, it was found that PCB related positively to violation feelings, which in turn related positively to CWB-O and CWB-S over time. As predicted, the former was moderated by organizational blame attributions, whereas the latter was moderated by supervisor blame attributions. The authors discuss the theoretical implications and propose novel practical implications based on these reciprocal findings

Green supplier development: What’s in it for you, the buyer?
No full textInternational audienceGreening suppliers, or cultivating environmental responsibility throughout the supply chain, has become an important strategic issue for firms. While various approaches exist, green supplier development (i.e. helping and collaborating with your suppliers to reduce their negative environmental impact) is a key method which can produce significant gains for both parties, at multiple levels. Yet, the benefits have not been enough exposed, and may be nebulous for managers. Focusing particularly on ‘What’s in it for you, the buyer?’, this article describes benefits at the intra-firm, inter-firm and market levels. Barriers to the realization of the benefits are also discussed, providing managerial guidance on supplier prioritization for green supplier development
