Sébastien Damart et al., « Y a-t-il des invariants en management ? », HALSHS : archive ouverte en Sciences de l’Homme et de la Société - notices sans texte intégral, ID : 10.3917/eh.100.0085
This article focuses on the existence of management invariants. Invariance is a well-known concept in the hard sciences and in some social sciences. It is the term used to qualify what remains constant under the effect of transformations. Simply posing the question of the existence of invariants in the field of management is unprecedented and anachronistic. By investigating existing definitions of managerial activity, definitional invariants emerge that have structured management thinking to date. The forms of management invariants identified include typological, principle and axiomatic invariants.
