Stimuler la coopération organisationnelle en regard de la diversité internationale des travailleurs : proposition d’un outil de gestion fondé sur la lieuité

Abstract

This paper aims to understand the organizational cooperation between immigrant workers, based on an analysis of their perceptions of the place. Based on the experiences of some Cameroonian workers in Montreal, we discovered this place as a multi-faceted construction (geographical, local and symbolic). With a "place-based" analysis grid, we initiated a commented walk activity inspired by an itinerary proposed by the participants. This activity allowed us to identify relevant elements that would guarantee better organizational cooperation. Through an interest in the sharing of the individual senses of the place, we discovered that such activity within work teams could be source of a greater humanization at work. It would make it possible to better emphasize the complementarity of experiences and individual knowledge, key concepts for knowledge sharing, knowledge creation, collaboration and successful organizational cooperation.
