Abstract
As a determinant of performance, work has long been regarded as the essence of man, the element that shapes his identity. And thanks to the evolution of working conditions over the past decades, work is no longer just a means of earning a living for today’s society. It is an essential vehicle for self-fulfilment. But the question that arises is how does an employee’s self-realisation impact on his or her performance at work? The objective was to analyse the effects of an individual’s self-actualisation on his or her performance at work. Based on the results of an opinion survey on a sample of 250 employees, it was verified that self-actualisation has a strong impact on the performance of employees.
