Une conférence du professeur Steve Maguire de l’Université de Sydney

Le Département de management de FSA ULaval vous invite à assister à une conférence de Steve Maguire, qui présentera son article consacré au risque, aux parties prenantes involontaires et à l’innovation.

La présentation se déroulera en anglais. Une période de questions en français et en anglais suivra.

Résumé de l’article (traduction libre de la version anglaise)

Bien que l’idée que les organisations ont des «parties prenantes involontaires» qui doivent être gérées de manière stratégique soit bien acceptée, ce type de parties prenantes a reçu peu d’attention explicite dans la littérature.

Dans cet article, nous nous appuyons sur une vision constructiviste et relationnelle du risque pour théoriser les origines et la saillance des parties prenantes involontaires. Nous soutenons que celles-ci sont constituées lorsque les organisations sont construites comme des «objets de risque» liés de manière causale à des dommages potentiels subis par d’autres acteurs sans leur consentement.

Nous illustrons comment les innovations dans les pratiques d’évaluation et de gestion des risques à l’extérieur des organisations peuvent modifier quelles entités sont considérées comme parties prenantes organisationnelles ainsi que leur saillance. Nous illustrons également comment, une fois de nouvelles parties prenantes involontaires constituées, les pratiques de traduction des risques à l’intérieur des organisations peuvent modifier la saillance des parties prenantes.

Nous concluons par une discussion des implications de notre modèle pour comprendre comment différents types d’innovation en matière de risque peuvent modifier la direction de «l’innovation technologique» alors que les organisations cherchent à gérer de manière stratégique un ensemble croissant de parties prenantes involontaires dans notre société du risque.

Steve Maguire

Professeur de stratégie, innovation et entrepreneuriat
École de gestion de l’Université de Sydney

Professor Steve Maguire is Professor of Strategy, Innovation and Entrepreneurship at the University of Sydney Business School since January 2019. As the School’s first Fellow of Multidisciplinary Innovation, he collaborates with other faculties and multidisciplinary institutes to develop impactful, multidisciplinary research and teaching programs.

In 2020, he spearheaded the development of a new, highly multidisciplinary (engaging six faculties/schools) Major in Innovation & Entrepreneurship for undergraduate students across the University of Sydney as of 2022. In 2019, he was appointed as the inaugural Innovation Catalyst at the University of Sydney Nano Institute for « Engaged Innovation Scholarship for Impact » in which social scientists are embedded into teams of engineers, natural scientists and biomedical researchers to study innovation ‘in the making’ while actively contributing to it. Prior to the University of Sydney, he worked for 20 years at McGill University (Canada).

He publishes regularly in leading journals (e.g. Strategic Management Journal; Academy of Management Annals; Academy of Management Journal; Academy of Management Review; Organization Studies), is well cited (> 8,880 according to Google scholar) and has earned substantial research funding with co-investigators (> $25 million) as well as numerous awards. His research focuses on technological innovation and institutional entrepreneurship driven by the emergence of novel risks to human health and the environment, theorizing the role of non-market actors (e.g. NGOs, scientists, government agencies) in shaping the adoption or abandonment of particular technologies. Empirically, he has studied controversial products at the intersection of commercial, scientific and political struggles, such as pharmaceutical products for treating HIV/AIDS as well as polluting industrial chemicals and greener chemistries.

He has particular expertise on risk and its management, serving in an advisory role to the Government of Canada’s Chemicals Management Plan during 2007 – 2011, and working currently on research projects with scientists from Health Canada and Environment Canada. An advocate for engaged, multidisciplinary scholarship, he works closely with scholars from multiple faculties and publishes beyond traditional business school outlets (e.g. Environmental Health Perspectives; Environmental Toxicology & Chemistry; Global Governance; Integrated Environmental Assessment & Management).

In addition to the University of Sydney, he has also had success in multidisciplinary leadership roles at McGill University. In 2013, he was a founding member of McGill University’s Innovation Steering Committee and he served as its Co-Chair from 2015 to 2017. There, he initiated a series of change projects aimed at instilling a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship at McGill, including: new Minors in Entrepreneurship for non-Management undergraduate students; revisions to McGill’s intellectual property policy; formalized recognition of innovation and entrepreneurship as important and valid forms of impact when assessing promotion and tenure; and facilitation of access to laboratories for start-ups.

From 2011 to 2017, he served as Founding Director of the Marcel Desautels Institute for Integrated Management at McGill University which, under his leadership, became an important hub of multidisciplinary programming focusing on sustainability, social innovation and entrepreneurship. He oversaw the conception, championing and implementation of a range of novel programming that connects Management to other faculties, including:

  • A new Major in Managing for Sustainability for Management students, in collaboration with the McGill School of Environment and Department of Geography;
  • A new four-day, intensive module on The Sustainability Challenge for EMBA students;
  • A new formalized « Environment Option » for PhD students in Management interested in sustainability, in collaboration with the McGill School of Environment;
  • A unique series of five new Minors in Entrepreneurship, each with a common core but customized to the needs of undergraduate students from five partner faculties (Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, Arts, Engineering, Music and Science);
  • Two new introductory service courses on Management for non-Management students (Integrated Management Essentials 1 and 2);
  • A Social Economy Initiative, which launched a Social Innovators’ Integration Lab in partnership with local community organizations as well as an Impact Internship program that places students in NGOs.
