way with the help of relevant aim and objectives .(Jamali, El Dirani and Harwood, 2015).
Literature review – It is one of the essential portion of investigation that will play an
effectual function in administration extent knowledge and investigation of investigation topic.
This section is appropriate in giving a theoretical framework by analysing various authors views
and opinions in better manner.
2.2 Concept of employee's motivation
As per the view of Ashley Donohoe, employee motivation is the critical aspect at the
workplace which can lead towards increasing performance of the department and even the
company. To motivate people, it is essential to understand how motivation works. After

performance in company. It need to be more conscious about its services as customers are more
attractive towards hotel services and ambience. Motivating every employee by giving reward in
the form of incentive improves company's culture in an appropriate manner.
Show appreciation with promotion policy- Promotions are important when a person
enters in a company. Hotel industry like has different department with varieties of work, which
need to focus on promotion to an individual post. Individual post with minimum salary can work

It is the organisation which operate and regulate in various parts of nation and there are various
consumers visit and stay at hotel for different motives. In this hotel, when employees are
motivated so they are greet and welcome guests in pleasant manner which attract more people
towards their services and ambience (Dumont, Shen and Deng, 2017). It is required for hotel

with desired results or outcomes. The current investigation is based on qualitative research as in
this data has been gathered and collected on the basis of qualitative method. In this, descriptive
research design will be applied as it is an effective in providing a detailed research on the
qualitative research. In addition to this, collection of appropriate data and information through
5

accurate facts, interpretivism philosophy is an effective and appropriate (Mostafa, Gould and
Bottomley, 2015).
CHAPTER 3 RESERACH METHOLOGIES
Research Methodology – This consist with imperative section of investigation work that
are based on different technologies and applications in order to help in exploring right direction.
It is supported on different methodologies such as investigation design, approach, philosophy,
data collection, form of research, data sampling, data analysis and so more.
There are two source of data collection i.e., primary and secondary. In that primary help
in collecting first hand data which was not published earlier in any book, journal, news paper,
article and so on. On the other hand, secondary method of data collection is that in which
information as well as data has been published in book, journal, paper and in many more earlier.
Although, secondary method is effective which help the literature review section by collecting
data from secondary source such as books, journals, magazines, online sites and many more.
Thus, for conducting this research Primary method is best appropriate for directing overview for
gathering and collecting essential information. Because it help in gathering first hand data as
well as with the assistance of this method researcher is able to collect opinion and thoughts of
respondents directly.
It is considered as an important part of investigation project that are supported on several
methods and techniques and it is utilised by an investigator in order to collect and gather correct
sum of information from respondents. For this, research onion determined as best approach
which has some layers that are described as follows:
3.1 Research Philosophy
Positivism and interpretivism are recognised as an important philosophy which are used
by an investigator in order to gain better results for the study (Berman, 2015). On the other hand,
interpretivism philosophy will be used in this study that are extremely important for investigator
in reaching with effectual assumption. Positivism philosophy is not appropriate and suitable for
implementing investigating because this is provide invalidated judgement for the research. In this
research, investigator is using interpretivism approach because it avoid rigid structure as in
positivist research as well as adopt personal and flexible research structure. Thus, for conducting
research this approach is more suitable as well as appropriate.
6

3.2 Research approach
Inductive and deductive are present as an important approach of investigation which is
used by an researcher in order to determine topic accompanying issues and problems in better
manner. In case of deductive approach, the immediate theories are practical and used for existing
hypothesis regarding particular situations for explanation experiential grounds. In inductive
approach, non numerical information are applied so that output of numerical evaluation can be
substantiated. In the current present research, inductive approach used because it will provide
accurate data and information while conducting research report.
3.3 Research strategy
This is other major portion of investigation which has various types such as case study,
qualitative survey and so more (Maheshwari and Vohra, 2015). Such are used according to the
topic of research, interview is the best appropriate strategy in order to collect and gather data
from sample size and associated with investigation topic in better manner.
3.4 Research choice
There are various form of investigation which includes quantitative. In the case of
quantitative research, it create numerical data and collection which can be regenerate into
numbers (Ibidunn and et. al., 2015). Quantitative research is define as the systematic
investigation phenomena utilise for collecting quantifiable data as well as performing statistical,
computational techniques or mathematical. Although, through quantitative research information
gathered by researcher will be from potential or existing customers through several methods such
as online surveys, online polls, questionnaire and so on. Thus, in the respective research
quantitative method will be used by researcher because it will help in gathering accurate
information as fer the requirement by using appropriate method i.e., Questionnaire for this
research.
3.5 Data Collection
In this section, questionnaire report as one of the important and helpful method of an
investigation that are used by researcher in order to collect and gather accurate information from
customers regarding specific research topic. Along with this, it is that method which assist
researcher in order to secure their time and gather appropriate data that are assist in completing
all the activities of study.
7

In state to investigating data and collection regarding specific subject, there are mainly
two kind of data collection method such as primary and secondary. In primary method, an
investigator will formulate questionnaire that will assist them in collecting required data from
participants (Jiang and Liu, 2015). In secondary source, researcher use various number of
methods for collecting data such as books, journals, magazines, publications and so more from
different respondents about the research topic. In this current project, both sources of data are

information as well as data.
3.6 Research sampling
In this section, there are two form of investigation techniques which includes probability
and non probability. Both are required method for choosing sample size among large number of
group. In probability, the casual of each responsive are being selected on equal ground. Apart
from this, non probability techniques refer as expectation and possibility of each and every
participants which are being selected. Both the methods are useful and effective but as per the
subject, suitableness selection method is the part of non probability method because it is
inexpensive and does not consume time of the researcher (Katou, 2015). For this designated
sampling size of respondent is 40 by using convenience sampling method is the part of non
probability method.
3.7 Research Ethics
This section of research onion includes various factors such as no injury to respondents,
lack of advised permission, voluntary engagement, penetration of concealment and privacy of
information and data related to respondents. In this, all are required for an investigator to ask
easy and appropriate questions to the participant regarding research topic. Thus, it will assist in
doing whole research activities in proper manner (Katou, 2015). while conducting research it is
important for an investigator to keep in mind that information related to the respondent will not
going to be shared with third party. If it will be ensure by researcher to respondent they also feel

research, questionnaire is foremost instance of investigation credibility and dependability
because such method are render correct data which are accompanying to theme from the chosen
sample size.
In order to collect and gather required data and collection from the responsive regarding
specific theme, thematic analysis is most appropriate method which can be utilised by an
investigator. It is recognised as one of the essential and best tool in order to analyse and examine
response from customers (Katou, 2015). With the help of this method, an investigator create
