Du mode d'existence des théories dans les organisations. La fabrique de la décisioncomme praxis performative

Laure Cabantous and Jean-Pascal Gond

Revue française de gestion, 2012, vol. N° 225, issue 6, 61-81

Abstract: This paper provides a renewed perspective on the manufacturing of organizational decisions. We approach decision making as performative praxis ? a set of activities whereby actors simultaneously produce decisions and turn theories of decision-making into social reality. We extend the performative praxis perspective ? that combines the processes of conventionalization, engineering and commodification ? to account for actors? direct and indirect mobilization of theoretical representations when making decisions.
