Abstract

Depuis quelques années, à l'instar des grandes entreprises, les PME s'engagent chemin faisant dans des démarches de Responsabilité Sociale d'Entreprise (RSE) (Quairel et Auberger, 2005). Les obstacles à cette implication sont pourtant nombreux : au-delà de leurs ressources limitées (financières, humaines, en temps), elles doivent gérer l'ensemble des changements organisationnels induits par la RSE. La reprise d'entreprise, quant à elle, constitue une étape de rupture dans la vie des organisations. A ce titre, ce papier de recherche propose de considérer le processus repreneurial (Deschamps, 2000) comme une opportunité de mettre en oeuvre une démarche de RSE en PME. Une approche qualitative exploratoire (Hlady-Rispal, 2002) auprès de deux PME françaises familiales a été menée afin d'investiguer notre question de recherche. Les premiers résultats semblent indiquer que le processus repreneurial peut être considéré comme un moment propice pour la mise en oeuvre d'une démarche de RSE en PME. Cependant, l'analyse suggère de préciser les conditions favorables à cette mise en oeuvre en termes de posture du repreneur, de processus organisationnels et de préparation de sa transmission par le cédant. Les pistes de recherche s'orientent vers un approfondissement de nos propositions par un travail à plus grande échelle (en multipliant les cas de reprise étudiés) et par un élargissement au-delà des PME familiales (permettant de s'affranchir de leurs spécificités en matière de RSE) (Astrachan, 1988).
