French term

déclinaison de la politique

French to English Bus/Financial Management strategy implementation
From looking in various dictionaries and the Kudoz glossary, "déclinaison" seems to be one of those words that can be translated may ways, and I am not sure what fits best in this context:

Identification d’une insuffisance dans la déclinaison de la politique mise en place par le directeur de la communication et le directeur des SI

And again (describing the same issue):

Le problème majeur entre leurs directions respectives se situaient au niveau du middle management : il y avait un problème de déclinaison de la politique, partégée à leurs niveaux, mais qui ne se retrouvait pas au niveau middle management et au niveau opérationnel

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Identification d’une insuffisance dans la déclinaison de la politique mise en place par le directeur de la communication et le directeur des SI

Shortcomings identified in the formulation of the policy implemented by the Director of Communication and the IT Director...

It was the formulation or the drawing up of the policy they implemented that was found to have shortcomings...and not the implementation...

Sylvia: declinaison is not in dictionaries per se. It means the Form or something connected to that..here, it's the formulation of the policy...

dissemination / implementation of the policy

Either appears to fit; you may be able to tell from the rest of the document whether the problem lies in the policy not being communicated downward or not being implemented at certain levels despite dissemination of the policy.

neutral Jane Lamb-Ruiz (X) : I think it means the way the policy implemented by those guys was formulated..not the way it was implemented....

I have to disagree with you on that because the context indicates that the policy was formulated at director level and the problem occurred at middle management level.

the way it was implemented

déclinaison usually means the implementation/application so forth of a concept. don't you just love all these buzz words?

application of the policy

they found weaknesses in the way in which the policy established by the two guys was put into practice

Putting into practice - is what this is all about here

déclinaison refers to the fact that this happens at a variety of different levels in a variety of different forms
