Research and the Practice of Management: A French View
介绍法国CRG(管理研究中心)通过持续1-4年的临床研究,在20年内完成100多项案例,通过系统讨论构建管理知识体系,对管理研究者与实践者有启发。
Researchers at the CRG (Management Research Center) carry out their work through “clinical studies” lasting from one to four years and generating in-depth observations on how organizations function. The observations are analyzed through systematic discussions: over a span of 20 years the CRG has carried out more than 100 clinical studies, debated in hundreds of internal meetings. These exchanges have made it possible to identify similarities and differences among the management situations studied, and to build up a body of knowledge in the field. Although the guiding principles behind this approach are rooted in the unique nature of the French “Grandes Ecoles d’Ingénieurs”, the research results can be useful for stimulating fruitful discussion in the field as a whole.
