ROLE OF MOTIVATION ON PERFORMANCE IN WALMART CASE1
Answer to Question 1.
Methods to answer your research question and their justification
The research questions that would be presented in this particular case would be done
by the research process altogether where the research questions would be framed in such a
way that answering them one after another would specify the solution to all the problems that
has been identified in the research (Rosenthal, 2016). This is a major step that is required to
be answered in this particular paper. The motivation factors that were found out in the
Walmart case and the ways by which they have been answered is the primary factor for the
answering of the research questions. The intrinsic and extrinsic factors of motivations have
been separated to find out how different activating factors behind employee motivation can
be figured. Thus, the justified way to answer all the research question with the same
qualitative analysis method is the best way to address the research questions.
What kinds of instruments, variables, materials, or sources will be used? Reasons for using
mixed methods and the justification if they be sequential, concurrent or transformative.
The sources that were used for this purpose were justified to be the research papers
that were selected for the literature review and the bibliography analysis generated by the
methods related to the topic (Fink, 2015). This has been done by selecting the relevant
literature that justify the topic done by previous researchers and taking ideas from their
researches and has been used as a secondary source.
The analysis that is used in this regard is the concurrent research design that uses the
utility of both the qualitative and the quantitative data collection methods (Taylor, Bogdan &
DeVault, 2015). The research uses the qualitative analysis from the secondary source to find
out how other researchers have presented their views about the employee motivation factors

and then these have formed the basis of ideating the quantitative data collection from the
primary sources from participants through questionnaire methods.
Answer to Question 2.
The kinds of data/information that is planned to be collected
The planning for the research includes the collection of data through questionnaires
having the basis on the primary qualitative data collection methods through the findings
gathered by the literature review on the topic of employee motivation in case of Walmart and
how the employee motivation factor is responsible for the performances of the employees in
an organization (Silverman, 2016). These would be further developed into a questionnaire
format so that the people willingly involved in the questionnaire as participants would answer
them and that would be collected as quantitative and measurable data to form further base for
the analysis of these questions and the realization of the results.
Two or three alternative ways you could gather data/information for this research.
There are other ways of gathering the data that would be required for this research and
would also be justified as a procedure for data collection as well. Mostly, the type of
quantitative data that is targeted to be collected is thought to be in the form of questionnaire
presented to the sample participants and their involvement within the project is analyzed.
However, it can also be done with the help of over the phone conversion where they can
present their views on the questions over a call or it can also be possible if these questions are
represented over the online forms and passed on to the participants through their email IDs
(Drake, Rancilio & Stafford, 2017). In this way, they could be able to answer their required
questions and take part in the research for the data collection methods, without being bodily
present for the research methods.
