Abstract: This paper is an attempt to delineate a broad domain in the area of global performance management, so that ongoing research does not become so particularised and detailed that major activities of performance management – as globally practised across firms, industries and cultures – are ignored in the pursuit of increasingly constricted conceptualisations of 'performance'. The authors, therefore, propose a research domain that further differentiates performance management systems by considering the complexity in performance criteria with special emphasis on inputs, processes and outputs, by looking at explicit and implicit performance approaches and by investigating the extent of global standardisation and local customisation in global performance management.
