Employee engagementEmployee engagement is a fundamental concept in the effort to understand and describe, both qualitatively and quantitatively, the nature of the relationship between an organization and its employees. An "engaged employee" is defined as one who is fully absorbed by and enthusiastic about their work and so takes positive action to further the organization's reputation and interests. An engaged employee has a positive attitude towards the organization and its values.
GlutamineLa glutamine (abréviations IUPAC-IUBMB : Gln et Q) est un acide dont l'énantiomère L est l'un des aminés protéinogènes, encodé sur les ARN messagers par les codons CAA et CAG. Elle résulte de l'amidification du carboxyle terminal de l'acide glutamique. Elle donne des résidus polaires électriquement neutres et tendant à former des liaisons hydrogène par son groupe amide. Son rayon de van der Waals est égal à . La L-glutamine est l'acide aminé libre le plus abondant du sang humain.
Théorie des attentesLa théorie des attentes (expectancy theory) de Victor Vroom décrit les comportements humains. Il s'agit d'une théorie cognitive de la motivation au travail datant de 1964, date de publication de l'ouvrage Work and Motivation. Cette théorie indique que les employés vont choisir d'adopter des comportements ayant le plus de chances d'apporter les résultats souhaités. L'individu décide d'investir son énergie (motivation) dans une tâche qui lui permettra d'atteindre le résultat escompté.
Work motivationWork motivation is a person's internal disposition toward work. To further this, an incentive is the anticipated reward or aversive event available in the environment. While motivation can often be used as a tool to help predict behavior, it varies greatly among individuals and must often be combined with ability and environmental factors to actually influence behavior and performance. Results from a 2012 study, which examined age-related differences in work motivation, suggest a "shift in people's motives" rather than a general decline in motivation with age.
Business performance managementBusiness performance management (BPM), also known as corporate performance management (CPM) enterprise performance management (EPM), organizational performance management, or simply performance management are a set of management and analytic processes that ensure activities and outputs meet an organization's goals in an effective and efficient manner. Business performance management is contained within approaches to business process management.
Business process model and notationBusiness Process Model and Notation (BPMN en anglais), c'est-à-dire « modèle de procédé d'affaire et notation », est une méthode de modélisation de processus d'affaires pour décrire les chaînes de valeur et les activités métier d'une organisation sous forme d'une représentation graphique. Elle constitue la norme internationale . BPMN a été développé au départ par la Business Process Management Initiative (BPMI), et est maintenu par l'Object Management Group (OMG) depuis la fusion de ces deux Consortium en juin 2005.
Self-perception theorySelf-perception theory (SPT) is an account of attitude formation developed by psychologist Daryl Bem. It asserts that people develop their attitudes (when there is no previous attitude due to a lack of experience, etc.—and the emotional response is ambiguous) by observing their own behavior and concluding what attitudes must have caused it. The theory is counterintuitive in nature, as the conventional wisdom is that attitudes determine behaviors. Furthermore, the theory suggests that people induce attitudes without accessing internal cognition and mood states.
Modélisation de processusLa modélisation de processus (en anglais, business process modeling ou BPM) consiste à structurer et à représenter les activités d'une organisation, généralement en utilisant une notation graphique pour représenter visuellement l'enchaînement des activités. La modélisation peut s'appuyer sur des méthodes et outils spécialisés, et mettre en œuvre des cadres de références de processus.
Performance-enhancing substancePerformance-enhancing substances, also known as performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs), are substances that are used to improve any form of activity performance in humans. A well-known example of cheating in sports involves doping in sport, where banned physical performance-enhancing drugs are used by athletes and bodybuilders. Athletic performance-enhancing substances are sometimes referred as ergogenic aids. Cognitive performance-enhancing drugs, commonly called nootropics, are sometimes used by students to improve academic performance.
Computational economicsComputational Economics is an interdisciplinary research discipline that involves computer science, economics, and management science. This subject encompasses computational modeling of economic systems. Some of these areas are unique, while others established areas of economics by allowing robust data analytics and solutions of problems that would be arduous to research without computers and associated numerical methods.
