An investigation into the Relationship between Business Processes Re-engineering (BPR) and Employees' Performance
An empirical study at the Jordanian public shareholding companies
Abstract
This study is aiming at exploring and analyzing the relationship between the three dimensions of Business Re-engineering Processes (Organization’s Structural, Procedural and Technological) (BPR) and the three aspects of employees' performance (knowledge, skill, and attitude). The main results of this study have revealed that there is a positive, strong, and significant relationship between the BPR dimensions and employee performance. It also indicates that there is a statistically significant effect of the BPR dimensions on the employee’s performance.
