This book brings together papers presented at the 3rd Conference of Research in Economics and Management (CIREG) held in Morocco in May 2016. With a focus on the challenges of SMEs and innovative solutions, they highlight the contribution of researchers in the fields of business and management, with all their micro and macro-economic aspects. They shed light on the universal scientific vision of the importance of SMEs with answers relevant to their local context and adapted to their specific national situation. The relevance of SME research lies in its heuristic value of analyzing change, rather than in constructing a category, a particularly useful empirical concept. This first volume is focused on economic issues.

Là où General Motors, Sears et IBM ont perdu du terrain, Toyota, Walmart et Apple en ont gagné. L’histoire regorge d’exemples d’entreprises qui n’ont pas réussi à suivre la concurrence ou qui y sont parvenues, mais sans pouvoir maintenir le rythme par la suite. En tant qu’étudiante ou étudiant en administration des affaires, vous souhaitez sûrement savoir pourquoi certaines entreprises réussissent quand d’autres échouent. Qu’est-ce qui sous-tend le succès étonnant de Google en tant que moteur de recherche, et pourquoi Yahoo n’est-il plus un joueur dominant dans la même industrie? Comment une firme comme Walmart réussit-elle à devenir un chef de file et à maintenir sa position, alors que d’autres acteurs de la même industrie, comme Target Canada et Sears Canada, ont mis fin à leurs activités? Différentes sections de ce manuel apportent des réponses détaillées à ces questions et à d’autres du même ordre. Mais nous pouvons dès maintenant vous donner une réponse synthétique : les entreprises performantes gèrent stratégiquement leurs ressources et leur environnement : elles ne gèrent pas (ou ne déploient pas) seulement leurs ressources internes en ayant la concurrence à l’esprit, mais gèrent aussi de manière proactive leur industrie ou l’environnement concurrentiel lui-même. Dans ce manuel consacré au management stratégique, nous examinerons comment la haute direction de l’entreprise doit comprendre les enjeux qui se dessinent dans l’environnement, et comment elle doit adapter ses capacités stratégiques afin d’établir pour l’entreprise son avantage concurrentiel pour assurer sa prospérité à long terme. Il existe d’autres abrégés sur le même sujet, mais celui-ci se distingue par sa richesse et par les rubriques qu’il contient. Voici quelques-unes de ses particularités : Ce manuel est écrit dans un style simple et engageant, sur le ton d’une conversation. Il évite les phrases complexes et va droit à l’essentiel. Les concepts de chaque chapitre sont clairement développés afin d’aider les étudiantes et les étudiants à les saisir et à les assimiler rapidement. Les concepts sont illustrés au moyen d’exemples d’entreprises bien connues comme Apple, PepsiCo et Walmart.La présentation de la matière est axée sur la pratique et l’application, c’est-à-dire que les élèves disposent de modèles faciles à utiliser pour faire des analyses critiques (par exemple l’analyse d’une industrie ou l’analyse interne d’une entreprise).Chaque chapitre commence par une mise en situation présentée simplement, et le thème de cette brève étude de cas est efficacement intégré au contenu du chapitre.Chaque chapitre se termine par un résumé qui constitue un bon outil de révision pour les étudiantes et les étudiants.Chaque chapitre comprend des projets et des questions à développement conçus pour rapprocher les élèves de la dimension pratique.

The expression: "We did not see it coming!" has often been heard in recent years from decision makers at the highest levels of responsibility in the private and public sectors. Yet there were actually early (warning) signals, but they were often ignored or not used due to a lack of appropriate methodology. To avoid such blind spots, this book provides answers to the question "how to anticipate". The concept of a "weak signal" is at the heart of the proposed methods. After presenting examples of this concept, the authors provide original and validated answers to questions of feasibility: How to recognize a weak signal? How to exploit it? Numerous applications are presented.
