| Résumé : |
This work aims at clarifying the meaning of an expression which is often employed in managerial speech. But this expression is not enough analyzed. The expression « bon manager », is analyzed from a corpus of 50 French-speaking publications in management among the academic journals available on the Cairn website. The objective of this paper is to show the ideological presupposition of this expression. Six groups of meanings emerge from our work, according to cognitive status and relativeness. Thus, the expression doesn’t have the same meaning if it refers to a reality or a representation, if goodness is absolute or relative, and if it is relative to a situation or to a particular perception we have of it. We show in this work that the managerial ideology would have an interest to maintain the confusion between those meanings, because it allows to require excellence for managers, because it takes fiction as a reality, like it did with the Stakhanovian figure. |
