On 11 June, the FNEGE (Fondation Nationale pour la Recherche et l'Enseignement de la Gestion), in conjunction with the EFMP (European Foundation for Management Development), awarded Laurent Taskin, professor at the Institute in Human Management, and Anne Dietrich (University of Lille, IAE) the prize for the best management book for Management Humain: Une approche renouvelée de la GRH et du comportement organisationnel. Congratulations on this great recognition!

According to the FNEGE, this recognition is due to the fact that the book "stands out for its critical, rigorous and pedagogical dimension in the service of a humanist approach to management, which is absolutely necessary today". It is "the fruit of a transdisciplinary approach, capitalising on the social sciences and the practice of management in organisations to form the basis of this approach, which is widely used in higher education establishments in France and the French-speaking world".

What is Human Management, by Laurent Taskin

To rise to the challenges of our time, our organisations need a form of management that doesn't reduce people to resources or capital, and that abandons certain theories and models that individualise and objectify ever more. Human Management is a body of work firmly rooted in social science research that proposes a humanising reading of management, rooted in a reflexive anthropology that brings management closer to real work and makes recognition and working communities the priority contemporary levers for organisations and their management.
