But it doesn’t have a name yet. “Carambar management?” proposes, amused, Benjamin Chaminade, the head of a company that looks at innovative management practices. For her part, Deborah Rees, Director of Innecto, the British consultancy firm, said, “I like the idea of talking about Peter Pan management. Indeed, having fun at work is one of the demands of the notorious generation Y. “Initially, this management system came from start-ups created by friends who were often roommates,” says Chaminade, who was one of the first to talk about generation Y. “The couch was the office, we worked during pizza night. But after the pioneers, when the company grows, you need to recruit employees, who are not friends and who don’t come out of passion for a project but for the money. All these fun management proposals are attempts to keep the initial start-up spirit alive.”
