Motivational theories at workplace help the organisation to make the new and existing

MAIN BODY
There are different motivation theories that may help jack discount stores and satisfy the
management of Tesco. These theories are helpful for the business to understand the behaviour of
its employees and accordingly motivate them so that they can work more effectively. A

Tesco is required to implement the respective motivational theories at its work place in
order to satisfy the management at Jack discount stores:-
