Performance art can simply be described as the type of art presented to live audience (Irvin, 2016). The performance can either be carefully orchestrated or random; scripted or unscripted; carefully planned sometimes with or without audience participation or otherwise spontaneous. In addition, the performance can either be via the media or live; sometimes the performer is present while other times the performer may be absent.

The Metaphysics of Performance Something extraordinary has happened to metaphysics. At the very moment when philosophy is focusing its efforts at bringing metaphysics to an ‘end,’ metaphysics finds itself flourishing in the theatre, which speaks of itself as ‘metaphysics-in-action’ and publishes treatises carrying such titles as The Act of Being: Toward a Theory of Acting. The irony of the situation appears to have been lost on postmodern philosophers. What this paper sets out to do is explore

Performance-based Compensation - Pay for Performance Corporations are looking for new ways to improve employee performance as well as remain competitive. Pay for performance is one method some businesses are utilizing to improve employee performance. Performance-based compensation exists when compensation is tied directly to that portion of an individual’s performance that can be effectively measured.

Performance reviews have historically helped companies learn about their staff. They discovered which members of their staff employees were doing their job and which were not. In the past, one-sided evaluations were not really designed to help employees learn how to improve their performance or reach their goals. Instead, companies benefit from them rather than employees. Fortunately, all that is changing. Company leaders have learned that the happiness of their employees directly impacts the success
As well as helping with the above leadership qualities, you can also gain essential leadership abilities from ballet. The ability to multi-task If you’ve ever watched a ballet performance, you know how many different things are going on at the same time.

Drama Performance Analysis The aim of our drama performance was to perform ‘reality on stage’. We did this by basing our character on a real life person. This aim was to insure that we could fully understand Stanislavski theory of showing realism on stage and applying it to our own acting.

When performance crewing is done correctly, it makes for an excellent show and great visuals. Performance crewing is done by the stage crew members, these crew members, if seen by the audience

It can be argued that performance pay rather than motivating people may demotivate and create inequality among employees. A research from the National Bureau of Economic Research (2007) showed that "wage inequality is generally greater in performance-pay jobs than in other jobs, and that inequality has risen faster in performance-pay jobs than in other jobs during the 1980s". Inequality in the workplace is one of the common problems and causes of employees demotivation and dissatisfaction. According
