Abstract

Purpose - The purpose of this essay is to reflect on my personal experience on my teaching performance during the COVID-19 pandemic and to share my investigation into the nature of performance phenomenon. Design/methodology/approach - I reflected on my personal experience and thoughts about the phenomenon of performance. Findings - My reflection points to an understanding that performance is a social-natural phenomenon, which can only be enabled and directed but cannot be controlled. Originality/value - I shared some implications for understanding the nature of performance and performance management from an integrated worldview of physics, biology, psychology and neuroscience.
