In the traditional approach the economic performance of the enterprises was defined only by the perspective shareholders’, so the business owners, what is not surprising, as it was considered the source of rewarding investors and the main purpose of the business. Today a company is performing if he responds and at the economic level to the expectations of several stakeholder groups. In this article we review the evolution of these notions and we give a definition based on the modern approaches taking into account and the fact that, we can't discuss economic performance without social performance and environmental performance of an enterprise.
