Sommario/riassunto

D'un côté le boulanger ou le potier, travaillant seul et ne produisant que des objets singuliers et en petite série ; de l'autre, l'artisanat « première entreprise de France », créateur de richesse et d'emploi. Entre ces deux images, où se situe la réalité de l'artisanat français ?  Ce livre reprend une question qui n'avait pas fait l'objet d'enquêtes approfondies depuis les années 1970-1980. En comparant la génération issue du baby-boom qui part aujourd'hui à la retraite et celle qui s'est récemment installée, cet ouvrage s'attache à comprendre les transformations de l'artisanat. Il révèle que les modes d'accès au statut d'artisan se diversifient.  Appuyés par une politique visant à réduire le chômage par l'incitation à la création d'entreprise, les représentants des artisans visent le développement économique et l'emploi artisanal, en même temps qu'une ouverture du groupe des artisans à de nouveaux entrants. L'environnement socioéconomique favorise cette politique qui trouve un écho chez des individus éprouvant des difficultés à se placer dans l'emploi, soit que leur formation initiale ne leur offre pas les débouchés attendus, soit que leurs conditions d'emploi et de travail dégradées les conduit à se reconvertir.  Finalement, le groupe des artisans, moins typé, qui réunit des individus aux parcours et aux savoirs variés, se donne moins à voir



sous les traits d'un groupe social.

Sommario/riassunto

During a period of enforced solitude during the Covid-19 pandemic, Manfred Kets de Vries became introspective, reflective, and considered how executives could emerge from unprecedented global events. The result is a collection of 23 thought-provoking and focused chapters to help executives take stock and re-evaluate their path during a time of uncertainty. Beginning with essays on 'Managing Self,' Kets de Vries starts with people's search for meaning and how we can deal with this important question. Given our need for meaning, the question of human energy is discussed. What gives executives energy? What makes them feel alive? How best to use this energy? Several essays in this section deal with the effects of the pandemic on people's perception and management of time. The second section focuses on leadership and highlights several executive types you've probably encountered at work and struggle to deal with; complainers, belligerent people, and borderlines, will be part of thisparade. Also touching upon mental health issues and how organizations should deal with this, this section gives a deep insight into the leadership issues that we now face in what might be termed 'the new normal.' Finally, Kets de Vries places societal issues under the microscope. Tackling a multitude of interrelated topics, he explores the challenges of bringing in democratic processes into organizational settings, as well as the perils of loneliness and the issues faced by women in organization - and how society can better deal with it. Littered with Manfred Kets de Vries' trademark wit and psychological insight into the pressing issues of today, these essays can be read independently or as part of a guided tour around the daily perils of executive life.
