Abstract

Le champ du gouvernement ou de la gouvernance des entreprises est constitué par l’analyse des règles du jeu managérial, lesquelles, en encadrant la latitude décisionnelle des dirigeants, conditionnent la création de valeur organisationnelle et, plus globalement, la performance économique. Cet article a deux principaux objectifs. Premièrement, il vise à présenter les principales théories de la gouvernance en explicitant les modèles de création et de répartition de la valeur qui les sous-tendent. Au-delà de la vision financière actionnariale qui domine le champ des recherches en gouvernance mais dont le pouvoir explicatif est limité, sont également présentées les visions contractuelles partenariales qui prennent en compte l’ensemble des parties prenantes et les visions cognitives qui s’appuient sur une analyse différente de la création de valeur fondée sur les notions de connaissance et de compétence. Ces deux visions sont complétées par la prise en compte de la dimension comportementale associée aux biais affectant les décisions managériales. Deuxièmement, il cherche à préciser les conséquences de ces différentes théories tant pour expliquer la configuration et le fonctionnement des systèmes de gouvernance que pour éclairer les débats visant à identifier et imposer un système optimal de gouvernance.
