This framework for organisational effectiveness has 7 internal factors of a Tesco in this
need to be aligned in order for it to be successful. This classified into hard and soft elements. The
hard elements easily identified and soft elements are more intangible and influenced by corporate
culture.
Hard
elements
Strategy The strategy is plan which is developed by Tesco for remain
competitive in its industry and market. This is an ideal
approach which is established a long term strategy. For

effective manner (Brockbank and Ulrich, 2016).
System System of Tesco is refers the daily work like sales of products,

With the help of this, manager improves communication of employees, increased productivity

LO 2
P2 Analysis the different approaches and techniques for motivating employees.
Motivation is important part of the employee life in Tesco or for achieves goals and
objectives of company. There are two types of motivation techniques which are used by HR
manager of Tesco in order to achieve goals and objectives of company (Child, 2015). Those are
financial and non-financial motivation as follows:
Monetary motivation technique
The extrinsic motivation is generated from when employer motivates to employee the
best performance. In this type of motivation techniques employer of Tesco motivate their
employees to acquire new skills and knowledge. For example: employee of Tesco done work
with the best result in this employer give motivation by providing bounces, cash price to their
employees. With the help of this, employees are motivated towards give their hard contribution
4

for achieve goals. But this can give negative impact on employees if employer is not give fair
and performance based price. By this it can give negative and positive impact in employees and
their performance.
Non-monetary motivation
Intrinsic motivation involves engaging of people’s behaviour because it is personally
rewarding, essentially and performing a various activities in Tesco. In this type of motivation
techniques employer motivate their employee by boosting their skills and morale (Hatch, 2018).
For example: if employee done their task with best result of wok, in that employer and HR
manager has to give motivation to them in order to motivate them. For that, HR manager give
best and special comment to them in front of whole staff members and also promote them in
other position in organization. By these employees are highly motivated and their hard

contribution for work. Other hand, employer not appreciates them, and then they are de-
motivated and not work done in correct manner. This can affect employer and employee.
Those are the techniques of motivation both are help to motivate employees in order to
achieve goals and objectives of company which are best for Tesco success. The motivation is
supportive and effective in competitive advantage. This will help to give effective and valuable
contribution in competitive era. For example: employer of company is organizing the motivation
program for their employees where they are give appreciation and funds increments to their
employees (Hayes, 2018). By this employees are highly motivated and ready to give hard
contribution for work, when employees are motivated then they are able to give their hard
contribution for face competitive advantage. Other hand, they are not motivated by employer and
manager of Tesco then they are not work in effective manner. By this competitors are gain
advantage with Tesco.
Furthermore, low motivation can create issues for company which are affecting to the
company growth. These can create issues are outcomes of result is not correct, environment of
workplace is not good and competition is generate between employees or can leave office and
company. For that, employer has to give motivation to employees in effective manner by
monetary and non-monetary motivation as per requirement.

employees. It takes into account values knowledge, skills and experience of employees adds to
organisation. Skills of employees are very important part of organisation because with the help
of this employees are give best performance in organisation which is help to achieve goals and
objectives of company in effective manner. It is the stick of skill, knowledge, habits and social
attributes (Heijnen, van der Velde and Hagelaar, 2018). Human capital theory is highly related
with the study of human resource management in different practices in Tesco.
The main roles of human capital theory are discussed in economic development,
productivity analysis and innovation in company. Human capital can be development in many
ways but that are related with the human skills and values. Ability of employees are measured by
employer by employee performance in that employer give training to employees which are help
to increase ability of employees. The human capital developed growth of organisation in order to
6

achieve goals and objectives of company which are help to management by employee’s
contribution.

is the process of creating, sharing and using the knowledge and information of organisation. This
help to achieve goals of Tesco in effective manner by hiring best eligible employees for work
(Klopotan, Mjeda and Kurečić, 2018). It is very important to manage by employer and employee
of organisation.
LO 3

manager of Tesco is able to handle any incident at workplace. Like employee is injured at the
time of work in that role of HR is to compensate against of employee injury.
This skills are linked with global environment of Tesco because each country have their
own culture and rules which has to follows by HR. Like culture of other country is different, in
that HR of company is talk and covey messages to employees by using their country language.
7

These skills are very important and required for HR future. Advanced technology is affect to the
functions of HR practices. Like recruitment and selection is the best Hr practice which is
influenced by technology advancement, because with the help of this they can hire local
employees as well as international skills in manner to achieve goals (Maduenyi and et.al., 2015).

Changing environment is impact to Tesco and its decision making process. Decision making is
help to designed and managed changes in organisation either it is local or international changes
and culture. Environment of organisation can impact to business process because take time to
understand those changes in organisation as per requirements (North and Kumta, 2018). In order
to analysis change management here is use Lewis change management theory is as follows:
Lewis change management theory
It is one of the best and most effective change model approaches and it is easy to use and
see the why? This process has three stages which unfreeze, make change and refreeze.
Unfreeze the process where have to need change. This means is analyse every steps
which are currently run in the Tesco structure. The structure of organisation is divided
8

every responsibility of employees in effective manner as per different strategy. This
applies on the upcoming changes which are natural. Like changes in government
regulations have to apply by Tesco by Unfreeze their process.
Make changes is the process where manager of Tesco is learn and tries for understand
those regulations and make changes in their current policies. This will help to make
strategy as per requirements.
Refreeze the changes have effective concept which is fix those strategy and changes that
is made by manager and higher authority as per regulation changes. This process is
circulate in whole staff and share with whole employees.
This is fantastic because it fixed as per business needs and situation. Other hand the
transformational changes theory which is also helps to fix the changes in organisation.
Transformational change theory is best an effective which is shift as per culture of
business of an organisation resulting from a change in underlying strategy and processes which
are used in past (Nurmi and et.al., 2016). This change are includes the radical changes in
business model and often required and necessary changes of company.
New technology is occur transformational changes. Like new technology is introduced in
the company in that manager have to understand the uses of technology and give
instructions to their employee.
Product restructuring is another way of Tesco transformation. In this Tesco is wants to
change in their product. In this manager have to analysis market first because with the
help of analysis market needs they are able to make new product as per requirement.
In the change management HR manager plays important roles which are help to communicate
that change in whole staff members. In this roles of HR manager is to provide best training to
their employees as per requirement and also communicate those changes to them. This is
effective and valuable for employee’s growth factor. Hire best eligible employee for their
company which is help to address those change.
Barriers to change management
Changes are occur in organisation, then barriers are also occur which are create problems
for employees and management. This can occurs by negative attitude of employees and lack of
management support to understand those changes (Tracey, 2016). Poor communication and also
failure to involve employees in change process. By this Tesco is facing various problems in
9

changing products. It is very important to overcome those barriers in order to achieve goals and
objectives of company. Recommendations for overcome those barriers are as follows:
Provide best training to employees.
Use best raw material and technology to reduce efforts of employees.
Collect proper information and convey to employees.
Give proper instruction to employees for better work.
Build proper structure of work and also strategy.
