La performance dans les organisations publiques universitaires Concepts théoriques par rapport à la perception des managers des universités Cas du Maroc
Full text linkLa réforme de l’Etat et la modernisation de la gestion publique ont pour objectif premier ; l’amélioration de la performance des services publics dans l’exercice de leurs missions.Selon le groupe de travail interministériel, issu du réseau « amélioration de la gestion publique » animé par la délégation interministérielle à la réforme de l’Etat (DIRE) en France, la performance de la gestion publique concerne trois axes : l’impact ou le résultat final de l’action des services publics, la qualité du service apporté à l’usager et l’efficience des finances publiques qui veut dire l’amélioration du rapport entre les moyens consommés et les réalisations.Dans le secteur privé, la notion de la performance n’est pas loin de cette définition si on exclut la performance financière relative au chiffre d’affaires et à la rentabilité qui représente le premier souci des entreprises privées.Nous avons choisi de parler de la performance dans le secteur de l’enseignement supérieur en général et dans l’institution universitaire en particulier étant donné, la particularité organisationnelle de cette institution et également son rôle important dans le développement économique et social des nations
If Big Firms Need Managerial Innovation, How Much More Do Startups? – The Key Role of Management Control
Full text linkIn fast-paced entrepreneurial environments, control is no longer the enemy of creativity—it is its unlikely enabler. This study investigates whether management control tools can be considered as forms of managerial innovation in startups, examining how they are adopted, adapted, and reinterpreted within organizations marked by uncertainty, growth, and strategic flux. Drawing on a hybrid methodology that combines a narrative literature review with a systematic review, this research bridges conceptual foundations with empirical insights from peer-reviewed articles indexed in Scopus and Web of Science. The findings reveal that control tools—such as dashboards, budgeting systems, and performance indicators—are increasingly mobilized by startups not just for oversight, but as strategic instruments for alignment, learning, and legitimacy. These tools act as radical innovations when they redefine managerial paradigms, as relative innovations when adopted for the first time, and as incremental innovations when customized through iterative learning. The study underscores the interplay between external institutional pressures and internal agency in shaping these trajectories. By reframing control systems as evolving and context-sensitive innovations, this paper contributes to a renewed understanding of how startups navigate the paradox of structure and flexibility.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Role of Government in the Economic Valorization of Innovation and University Research: The Case of Morocco
Full text linkThe development of university researches and the economic valorization of innovation for industries and companies are still nourishing a scientific debate. It is perceived today as a priority and as an axis of investment of the States. They were involved in the ecosystem to ensure a "win-win" cooperation between the two partners and explore a triptych "model 2 " linking the State, the university, and companies. This paper focuses on working on the Moroccan experience and the role of the national government in the implementation of this model of cooperation. After an exhaustive review of all organizations related to innovation in Morocco, three models illustrate the cooperation of the three stakeholders (Industry, State and University) as a Triple Helix models. This involves innovation centers, clusters, and incubators. Following the results of the theoretical part, a quantitative study was conducted based on targeted survey. The objective is to demonstrate, through the answers, the level of involvement and the role of the Moroccan government in the realization of the triple helix model. Findings of this review revealed that the Triple Helix model is highly elucidated in the "Centers of Innovation" since the budget including the governance, and this model implies the three stakeholders. The clusters are more linked to the industries while the incubators are more linked to the universities
L’évaluation de la performance des organisations décentralisées au Maroc, entre les impératifs de l’intérêt général et les contraintes inhérentes aux collectivités territoriales
Full text linkCet article analyse la réforme de la décentralisation au Maroc à travers la culture de la performance. La constitution de 2011 a renforcé le pouvoir des collectivités territoriales en élargissant leurs compétences et ressources. Le principe de libre administration leur garantit une autonomie d'action, sous le contrôle de la légalité. Cependant, en contrepartie de cette liberté, les lois organiques instaurent un système d'évaluation de la performance. L'objectif est de rationnaliser l'utilisation des ressources pour mieux satisfaire les besoins des citoyens. La gestion axée sur les résultats doit devenir une culture managériale pour les collectivités.Le papier explique le contexte de cette réforme et ses enjeux. Il souligne l'importance de formaliser le système d'évaluation et de construire des indicateurs pertinents. Des obstacles comme les résistances au changement sont aussi évoqués. La méthodologie adoptée se base sur une revue de littérature et des entretiens avec des acteurs locaux. L'étude de cas porte sur la région Souss-Massa. Les conclusions pourraient servir à d'autres cas pour évaluer la performance des organisations décentralisées
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
