Abstract

Une théorie du gouvernement des entreprises est avant tout une théorie de la latitude managériale. Cet article a pour objectif de contribuer à la construction d'une théorie de la latitude managériale. Il propose en premier lieu une réflexion sur la représentation du comportement des dirigeants dans les principaux courants de la recherche sur le gouvernement des entreprises. En second lieu, il vise à revisiter la question du gouvernement des entreprises en abordant trois questions:(1) celle du lien entre système de gouvernement et stratégie personnelle des dirigeants;(2) celle de la latitude managériale optimale et (3) celle de l'évolution des systèmes de gouvernement.
