Businesses and People : performance according to Antoine Riboud
December 29th, 2008 · View Comments · Human resources, Organization & Management
A reflection that is not very far my usual discourse since it’s about optimization under resource constaintes. Most of all human resources.

February 3rd, 2007 · View Comments · Human resources, Organization & Management
