Organizational social cohesiveness requires the involvement and support of each of its members to the formal group. Many principles, including the superimposition of basic social values with organizational standards works for this aim. The non-line up of these two factors poses challenges within organizations for members to collaborate in formal groups. These are crystallizing around transitional standards to ensure their cognitive and behavioral consistency. To demonstrate the effect of the mismatch between social values and organizational standards on the lack of organizational social cohesion, an empirically and documentary analysis has being carried out.
Author Keywords: Organization, organizational standard, social values , social cohesiveness.

Abstract
Organizational social cohesiveness requires the involvement and support of each of its members to the formal group. Many principles, including the superimposition of basic social values with organizational standards works for this aim. The non-line up of these two factors poses challenges within organizations for members to collaborate in formal groups. These are crystallizing around transitional standards to ensure their cognitive and behavioral consistency. To demonstrate the effect of the mismatch between social values and organizational standards on the lack of organizational social cohesion, an empirically and documentary analysis has being carried out.
Author Keywords: Organization, organizational standard, social values , social cohesiveness.
Abstract: (french)
La cohésion sociale organisationnelle nécessite l’adhésion et l’implication de chacun des membres de l’organisation aux groupes formels institués. La superposition des valeurs sociales de base aux normes organisationnelles est tributaire de cette adhésion. Un défaut d’alignement de ces deux facteurs pose au sein des organisations des difficultés pour les membres de collaborer dans les groupes formels. Ils se cristallisent de ce fait autour des normes transitionnelles érigées par eux-mêmes, afin d’assurer leur consistance cognitive et comportementale. Seulement, ce procédé cause par contrecoup l’émiettement de l’endo-groupe. Pour démontrer ce phénomène, une analyse documentaire empirique est réalisée.
Author Keywords: Organisation, norme organisationnelle, valeurs sociales, cohésion sociale.
