뜻
To make something function better or more efficiently.
문화적 배경
The 'DPE' (Diagnostic de Performance Énergétique) is a mandatory document for selling or renting property in France. It rates houses from A to G based on their energy performance. In Quebec, the influence of English is strong, so 'performance' is used very frequently, sometimes even in contexts where European French might prefer 'rendement'. There is a growing movement called 'Slow Management' that critiques the constant need to 'améliorer les performances', advocating for a more human-centric approach. The INSEP (Institut National du Sport, de l'Expertise et de la Performance) is the elite training center for French athletes, showing how central the word 'performance' is to high-level sport.
Use with Adverbs

Not for People's Character
Never say you want to 'améliorer les performances' of your friend's personality. It sounds like you want to reprogram them.
