Jacques Lacan and the discourse of management control : elaborations based on a French high tech company

Résumé

The discourse of management control is a combination of two specific types of discourse derived from Lacan's "mathèmes": the capitalist discourse and that of science. The capitalist discourse is a shift from the original discourse of the Master. In a methodological approach, we argue that critical analysis of discourses, particularly its Lacanian version, is specifically concerned by unexpected events, sometimes invisible or subversive immersed in the flow of signifiers. Such analysis leaves a space for interpretation of ruptures, witticisms, laughter that disrupt the first intentional signification of the speaker. When applied to the high tech company, those Lacanian theoretical and empirical approaches show that two major organizational traumas could have been limited: financial in the 2000s, after the end of the Internet bubble and linked with human resources policies at the end of the 2010s.
