Abstract

Before the enormous differences of productivity, profitability, quality, commitment of employees who constantly widen between the two dominant rivals “models”, that of financial capitalism in the US on the one hand, and that of capitalism more industrial – technical of countries such as those of the northern Europe (Scandinavia, Germany), or south east Asia (Japan, South Korea…) is it not worth asking whether the mode of relations existing between “leaders” and conducted is not there for some reason? In other words, if the mode of legitimization of power of the owner and business leaders – as seen and perceived by workers, as unacceptable, and even as demobilizing ? Because after all, the ‘added value` the productivity, innovation… and the so-called ‘total quality” may not come from this that the collective intelligence – from what the synergy of employees can and “want” give. There are therefore an obvious problem of ‘` whose ways employees are encouraged to be creative, vigilant, intelligent… in what they are doing for their business. Much has been said and written on the question of «cultures of entreprieses» which would make the difference…, but, precisely, and what is addressing this text, why is there any ‘cultures” generating quality and productivity never denied on the one hand, and other not generating (comparatively) virtually that stress, demobilization, disengagement, low quality… to another side? Would it not – among other things – the legitimacy of people – in what they are and what they grant themselves – which arise in “leaders” which would be involved? That is the central question to which the present work will attempt to find answer.
