Business intelligence as a challenge for the managerial function: case study on managerial decision making in Agerian companies
(Business Ethics and Leadership, 2022-09-30) Seguer, Zineb Soltana; Messaïd, Amina Hasna
In the literature review, the subject of changes in organizations and business professions as a result of digital advances and digital is quite frequent. These changes concern all sectors of activity and professions without exception. Thus, under the influence of digitalization, individual campaigns have transformed, changed, or disappeared altogether. The same applies to individual professions related to digitalization. The aim of the article is to investigate the main problems and determine the ability of the managerial profession to face the challenges and threats that arise in the conditions of digitization of organizations and the use of business analytics tools. Among the many functions of the manager's profession, the article examined the role of strategic decision-making as one of the most complex and difficult to digitize. The object of the study is the skills of strategic decision-makers in organizations from different sectors of the economy (pharmaceutical industry, agri-food industry, career industry, construction and real estate, metallurgy and metal materials, multinational, business administration, communication & Marketing, e-business, auditing & accounting, banking). New decision-making skills were identified and described based on the study of the skills of fifteen different managers and eight consultants and analysts. All managers should gradually acquire these skills to complete their basic training, gain knowledge and interpersonal communication skills, and understand the latest know-how which appears in the digital age. It will allow him to meet his company's current and future needs and better retain and fulfill job duties. The results of this study show us that in addition to his professional development based on technology and digital, the manager develops based on his personal growth and professional knowledge. The contribution of digital tools to decision-making skills is the same regardless of the field of activity he exercises during his career.
Former aux enjeux environnementaux au Maghreb : entre les discours des décideurs et la réalité dans les écoles d'ingénieurs
(Éducation comparée et internationale, 2025-06-23) Gardelle, Linda; Amdouni, Sonia; Djennadi, Lydia (ENSM)
Le monde de la formation des ingénieurs est marqué par une forte circulation des idées au niveau international concernant les pratiques pédagogiques. Reposant sur une enquête auprès des acteurs de la formation des ingénieurs en Algérie, au Maroc et en Tunisie, cet article propose de saisir en quoi ces formations se transforment face aux défis environnementaux que connaît le Maghreb. Il présente les dynamiques en cours dans la production curriculaire à travers les manières qu’ont les enseignants en écoles d’ingénieurs de traduire les injonctions et les influences diverses dans la construction des curricula
Algerian engineer training at a time of major environmental challenges: a survey of three graduate schools
(International Journal of African Higher Education, 2025-11-28) Djennadi, Lydia (ENSM); Gardelle, Linda; Beguerna, Mohamed
Environmental problems are having a brutal impact on the daily lives of the
North African population. These countries have a young population, with significant
numbers in higher education. Given this context, are future graduates
being made aware of environmental issues? Since future engineers are the
creators of tomorrow’s technological and socio-technical changes, an analysis
of their training is of particular interest. This article explores the ways in
which choices are made in programme creation and what influences changes
in three engineering graduate schools in Algeria. Through a curriculum sociology
approach, we examine how curricular offers are discussed and implemented
at a time when major environmental constraints weigh heavily on
Algeria. We analyse higher education policies on engineer training, as well
as the construction of programmes, via an analysis of the programmes themselves
and interviews with 24 stakeholders. The article shows that in the absence
of instructions imposed by political decision-makers, teachers enjoy a
remarkable amount of freedom when creating curricula. However, tensions
arise since there is no authority to arbitrate disagreements. The results open
avenues for further reflection for researchers interested in macrosociological
reconfiguration in higher education.
Quelle place pour les enjeux environnementaux dans les formations d’ingénieurs en Algérie ? Le cas de l’École Nationale Polytechnique d’Alger
(Cahiers de la recherche sur l’éducation et les savoirs, 2023-10-30) Djennadi, Lydia (ENSM); Gardelle, Linda; Benguerna, Mohamed
Alors que les questions environnementales résonnent comme des incontournables dans les formations d’ingénieurs contemporaines en France et en Europe, qu’en est-il dans les pays nord-africains confrontés encore davantage, et plus brutalement encore, aux impacts du réchauffement climatique ? Est ici proposée une étude de la formation des ingénieurs en Algérie, et de la place qui y est réservée aux questions environnementales. Elle est basée sur une analyse des programmes de formation de l’École Nationale Polytechnique d’Alger et sur une enquête par entretiens avec des enseignants menée de 2018 à 2020. Elle montre comment se réalise la production curriculaire dans une grande école d’ingénieurs, par qui et avec quels débats. Se dégage une certaine autonomie des enseignants, lesquels sont peu bridés par des référentiels et des prescriptions, mais confrontés à d’autres types de contraintes, en termes d’organisation institutionnelle et de ressources. Ces enseignants introduisent dans les programmes des cours relatifs à l’environnement, mais de manière réduite par rapport à leurs ambitions de formation. Ils s’accordent à dire qu’il y a une multiplicité d’urgences, l’urgence environnementale n’en étant qu’une parmi d’autres.
Managing socio-economic infrastructure projects in developing countries: improving decision-making through risk assessment
(Financial Markets, Institutions and Risks, 2024-10-03) Chohra, Mohamed
The management of socio-economic infrastructure projects in developing countries, including roads, bridges, tunnels, railways, ports, airports, dams and others, presents multifaceted challenges, particularly in environments marked by complexity and uncertainty. Despite the efforts of governments in these countries, these types of projects still face numerous risks, including political, technological, regulatory, financial, and market risks. The objective of the study was to examine the practices related to the problem of the decision-making process and risk assessment in the management of socio-economic infrastructure projects in developing countries, focusing on the example of the Algerian experience. This research used a qualitative analysis of the decision-making process through 15 semi-structured interviews conducted with representatives of various institutions and administrations responsible for supervising the East-West highway project in Algeria and several focus groups conducted or observations noted at the meetings where the author participated as a principal engineer at the Ministry of Public Works (project owner) during the different phases of the implementation of this mega-project. This made it possible to carry out a global assessment of current practices and to identify the major risks that can impact the decision-making process to improve the management of socio-economic infrastructure projects in Algeria and also in developing countries. The results of the study reveal the risks related to the complexity of the external and internal environment of the projects, in which among the 13 major risks identified, 61.54% have a high criticality, 30.77% have a medium criticality, and 7.69% have a low criticality. The results show that several important aspects need to be improved, including: 1) strengthening financial stability; 2) political risk mitigation; 3) implementing economic stability measures; 4) clarifying contractual aspects; 5) promoting cultural sensitivity and communication; 6) improving cost and quality control measures. This study provides valuable guidance to governments, businesses, managers, and other individuals or groups interested in promoting the management of socio-economic infrastructure projects in developing countries.
