The impact of the ethical dimension in the company's communication strategy: the need for "responsible" communication - Franck Debos
"We can consider that business ethics is actually a combination of three dynamic dimensions:
A preventive ethics grouping the notions of security; environment and health.
An internal ethics centered on a rigorous respect of the legal norms as well as on the emergence of an internal code of ethics and the notion of employability.
An external ethic implying greater transparency towards its partners (shareholders regardless of their importance, customers, suppliers, and other pressure groups).
13The company becomes socially responsible, which implies taking into account a political function in addition to its economic function »

"Ethics improves honesty, trust and opens the business to the outside world.
This serves to give behavioral benchmarks, management guidelines, to make decisions consistent, understood and shared by employees. "
"A company that does not conceive of personal responsibility does not create any value and can not ensure its durability.
Ethical behavior requires seeing the future of the company in the long term, which is a source of opportunity.
It allows to have more convictions on the products it sells, but especially to create and restore confidence in its micro / macro environment.

The cycle of the strategic watch
We remind you that we have set up an information process and that we have met the company to define its environment in order to discover opportunities and reduce uncertainties, or even anticipate threats.
It therefore takes place according to a cycle of five stages:
1. Targeting or Strategy => Define the need for your company's watch:
Define the thematic, the fields in semantics and the actors of the domain and the axes of research on who must remain watchful (financial, legal, technical aspects ...)
Choose relevant keywords, with monitoring, intervention and use of documentary tools. => prepare research strategies by representing the semantic connections between different ideas, the hierarchical links between different intellectual concepts.
Identify useful sources in the company, contact the actors with whom works, information providers, the Web, institutions ...
Understanding the context (why?) The need for monitoring
Define the objectives of the day before (what?) With a reflection on the expectations in order to turn them into a need for information
Identify the targets of the day before (for whom?) And the mode of diffusion (how?)
Set up a monitoring strategy according to the needs of the "client" or the "user" and the means (themes, issues, resources).
2. Sourcing, => Thinking about tools and watch channels based on targeting:
Use identified sources when targeting and searching for additional sources
Qualify the sources according to their nature, radius of diffusion, purpose, intended audience, author, language, content / purpose ...
Identify relevant pages
Set up and configure the chosen monitoring tool
3. Collection and selection of information => gather facts, opinions, studies, etc., on desired themes, from formal or informal sources according to:
Frequency to be defined according to information needs
tools used and the nature of the information
Selection of information on relevance to standby requirements
4. Analysis and synthesis => Validate the information collected:
Extract relevant content
Integration into one or more summary documents (exploitable)
5. Dissemination. => Make the information available as deliverables to the people concerned.:
â–ªmeans of communication adapted to the target and the monitoring process: newsletters, alerts (Google Alert, ...), dynamic sites, blogs, etc.

GIVE SENSE TO YOUR ENTREPRENEURIAL WATCH
Entrepreneurial strategic watch
Define the strategic watch
Strategic watch "Strategic intelligence is the information process by which the company anticipates the weak signals of its environment with the creative purpose of discovering opportunities and reducing uncertainty“. LESCA (1994)
Observation Strategy = Clear Vision + Feasibility + Viability of a project
Prospective Approach > Reactive > Anticipate
Multiple Types of special Watch → Orient the Global Strategy
✔Scientific and technological watch
✔Regulatory, normative, legal watch
✔Standby image, e-reputation
✔Business intelligence, financial, marketing, competition
✔Sector, strategic and environmental / societal watch
Understand the strategic meaning of entrepreneurial watch
Our strategic representations are often limited by:
- Information ‘super-abundance’ surrounding
- Environmental influence on our cognitive abilities & reactions
What are the effective remedies?
âUnderstand and verify your ability to process and exploit the available information
âMake the right strategic decisions
âSucceed your business creation
âContinuously improve our process
Notes:
The solopreneur, independent worker, auto entrepreneur or leader whatever his status can not undertake without acting positively or negatively on his environments. (See PESTEL and SWOT analysis)
Climate issues, the fight against waste and the preservation of natural resources force him to adopt a responsible, united and ethical attitude.
Tools & methods of continuous improvement ranked from 1 to 10 according to your objectives & needs
1.Collect information and ideas (Brainstorming / Mind-mapping / CTQ Chart / Kano Analysis)
2.Analyze and evaluate the company’s situation (FIPEC, SIPOC chart/QQOCCP/Value Analysis)
3.Look for causes and effects (Ishikawa Diagram / 5 Why)
4.Help with decision making (Decision Tree / Matrix Feasibility / Efficiency / Eisenhower Matrix
5.Solve problems (PDCA / Kaizen Blits ou Kaikaku / Trystorming)
6.Reduce your sources of waste (Lean management / 3M)
7.Manage quality (Kaizen / 5S / AMDEC)
8.Plan and track tasks (Gantt Chart / PERT Chart / Action Plan)
9.Visualize and manage processes (Value Stream Mapping (VSM) / Visual Management)
10.Optimize production (Six big losses / Continuous Flow / Heijunka)
Notes:
The creation of meaning is related to the ability of the leader to process and exploit the information available.
Our individual faculty faces limited strategic representations in the face of:
- The surrounding informational overabundance => the overload or "overload information"
- The influence or not of our decisions according to our cognitive capacities and our critical spirit
Focus on the continuous improvement method:
"Deming Wheel" = Solve problems
Step 1: PLAN = Define the process that needs to be improved (Brainstorming, Mind Mapping)
Step 2: DO = Execute your action plan = Choose your indicators and define whether your improvement is real or not based on a subjective assessment
Step 3: CHECK = Analyze and evaluate the recovered data and compare them with the standards in place or the intended purpose
Step 4: ACT = Check > Edit > Schedule
Responsible and ethical attitude:
Analyze its Leadership = Vision + Mission + Values + Objectives + Strategies
â‘Good knowledge of self and its potentialities (internal and interpersonal diagnosis): values, vision, objectives, strategies, and added value
â‘Good knowledge of the environment (external diagnosis): Pestel analysis, SWOT analysis, continuous improvement methods,
→ INFLUENCE > 0 OR < 0 ENVIRONMENTAL FACTOR
â‘Solidarity and sustainable approach = acting for the common good
→ Economic Logic & Social Progress (logic of sustainable development)
Responsible and ethical attitude:
Security + Respect + Transparency
Analyze your ethical and responsible capacity
Ability to process and exploit available information
→ Organize + Search + Follow + Analyze + Evaluate
Main principles to respect
1.Define and identify
