Camille Desmarais examines the paradoxes of contemporary corporate culture in *Les lendemains qui mentent. Peut‑on civiliser le management ?*. Drawing on philosophical inquiry and practical insights from organizational behavior, the author questions whether the promises of humane, ethical management are merely rhetorical. Through a series of case studies and critical reflections, the book explores how power dynamics, profit motives, and entrenched habits shape decision‑making in modern enterprises. Desmarais proposes alternative frameworks that prioritize transparency, employee well‑being, and long‑term sustainability, while acknowledging the challenges of implementing such ideals within existing structures. The work offers readers a thought‑provoking blend of theory and practice, encouraging managers, scholars, and anyone interested in the future of work to reconsider the narratives that drive corporate governance today.
