The presence of women in company management is an important sign of their emancipation from the domestic environment. In addition, they are the main target of firms as they influence up to 80% of purchasing decisions. The objective of our survey is to study corporate communication between inclusion and gender equality, in particular the representation of women in leadership and the initiatives for women’s empowerment. Accordingly, we examined the case of two French industrial groups: L'Oréal, the world leader in the cosmetics industry, and Orange, one of the world’s leading telecommunications and digital services operators. Notably, the first part of the work concerns internal and external corporate communication as well as the gender theories of organizational processes. The second part, on the other hand, focuses entirely on the analysis of L'Oréal’s and Orange’s corporate communication through a heterogeneous corpus made up of images, text extracts and diagrams. This approach is strongly linked to the discourse analysis of the French school, which draws on pragmatics and consists of observing and examining discursive phenomena and the use of language in context. Indeed, our investigation aims to explore the rhetorical and linguistic strategies implemented by the two Groups in their argumentation, especially with regard to gender identity, the Aristotelian triad (ethos, pathos and logos) and the question of the Person (interlocution and delocution).
La présence des femmes dans le management des entreprises est un signal important de leur émancipation envers le foyer domestique. De plus, elles constituent la cible principale des organisations puisqu’elles influencent jusqu’à 80% des décisions d’achat. L’objectif de notre enquête est d’étudier la communication d’entreprise entre inclusion et égalité de genre, notamment la représentation des femmes au sein du leadership et les initiatives en faveur de l’émancipation féminine. Pour ce faire, nous avons examiné le cas de deux groupes industriels français : L’Oréal, le leader mondial de l’industrie cosmétique, et Orange, l’un des principaux opérateurs de télécommunications et de services numériques dans le monde. En particulier, la première partie du travail est axée sur la communication interne et externe d’entreprise, ainsi que sur les théories genrées des processus organisationnels. La deuxième partie, en revanche, porte entièrement sur l’analyse de la communication d’entreprise de L’Oréal et d’Orange à travers un corpus hétérogène constitué d’images, d’extraits de textes et de graphiques. Cette approche est fortement liée à l’analyse du discours de l’école française qui puise dans la pragmatique et consiste à observer et examiner les phénomènes discursifs et l’usage de la langue en contexte. En effet, notre enquête vise à explorer les stratégies rhétoriques et linguistiques mises en œuvre par les deux Groupes dans l’argumentation, notamment en ce qui concerne l’identité de genre, la triade aristotélicienne (ethos, pathos et logos) et la question de la Personne (interlocution et délocution).

Abstract
The presence of women in company management is an important sign of their emancipation from the domestic environment. In addition, they are the main target of firms as they influence up to 80% of purchasing decisions. The objective of our survey is to study corporate communication between inclusion and gender equality, in particular the representation of women in leadership and the initiatives for women’s empowerment. Accordingly, we examined the case of two French industrial groups: L'Oréal, the world leader in the cosmetics industry, and Orange, one of the world’s leading telecommunications and digital services operators. Notably, the first part of the work concerns internal and external corporate communication as well as the gender theories of organizational processes. The second part, on the other hand, focuses entirely on the analysis of L'Oréal’s and Orange’s corporate communication through a heterogeneous corpus made up of images, text extracts and diagrams. This approach is strongly linked to the discourse analysis of the French school, which draws on pragmatics and consists of observing and examining discursive phenomena and the use of language in context. Indeed, our investigation aims to explore the rhetorical and linguistic strategies implemented by the two Groups in their argumentation, especially with regard to gender identity, the Aristotelian triad (ethos, pathos and logos) and the question of the Person (interlocution and delocution).| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
