The Annual Report (excerpt from : " From SOGETI to CAP GEMINI / 1967 -
1997 A 30-year history ")
The group made another important decision
in 1975 : to publish a complete Annual Report on its results, its
organization and its activity, even though under no obligation -
legal or otherwise - to do so. At once a communications tool and
an instrument of group cohesion, a medium for the group's image
and a sales support, this Annual Report very quickly set itself
apart by its originality. This originality manifested itself,
from page one, in the style of its " Letter from the
Executive Chairman, " which systematically avoided jargon
and platitudes in favor of a very direct analysis of the group
situation (" I have a reputation as someone who listens a
lot and says very little, " notes Serge Kampf, " so
when I do talk, it might as well be to say something. "). It
was also manifested in the fact that the entire text was written
inhouse by members of the Executive Committee (Michel Jalabert
and Michel Berty would be the autors most often put to the test),
then reread and corrected, line by line and from beginning to
end, by Serge Kampf himself. Dealing with a different theme each
year, its continuing exploration of the world of information
technology always caught the attention of the profession.
Finally, the artwork, carefully selected each year by Kampf, was
always striking and presented a departure from the usual
stiffness of this sort of publication.*
Thanks to these qualities, the group twice
received the prize for Best Annual Report awarded by the magazine
La Vie Française - in 1985 for companies quoted on the
the Secondary Market of the Paris Stock Exchange (La Bourse), in
1988, for companies quoted on the Regular Monthly Market - and,
as a result, to be declared " out of competition " for
succeeding years.
* This trend began with the
1977 Annual Report, with drawings by the well known illustrator,
Sempé. In particular a " story without words, " spread
over two cover pages, which some readers only " figured out
" many years later.
