This term has become increasingly prominent in Brazil since the 2000s, particularly in business management and public administration reform. In the USA and Brazil alike, it reflects a shift toward accountability and measurable outcomes in both private and public sectors. In Brazil, performance-based frameworks are often tied to government modernization initiatives and corporate governance best practices. The concept differs from traditional seniority-based or process-focused approaches that were more common in both countries' institutions historically.
