and PGCMS, 2016).
Autocratic leadership style: In this management of the company take individual decision
in the work place. This leadership style is good for those employee who want closes supervision.
But it contrary to that those employee who don't want close supervision they may take it
otherwise. CAPCO use this leadership style as a motivation when change in the organisation.
Management of the company communicate with their employee and motivate to follow the
decision that is taken by the higher authorities. Management also aware why they go for the
close supervision and its impact on the workplace (Neumann and Neumann, 2013).
Participative leadership style: This is work as their name says in which management of
the company motivate their worker to participate in the organisation as well as take part in the
decision making process. When a employee can take part in the organisation decision making
process then individual become more close with the organisation as well as its working process.
This leadership style will reach good decision when company set short-term goal. Moreover all
above study is assists for the organisation and its is positively impacted on the worker and its

Transactional analysis: Mostly this leadership style use for employee reward and
punishment system but as per the given scenario management of CAPCO use this leadership
style for only reward system. HR management of the company always monitor employee’s
performance and according to their performance reward system set by them. When employee's

Moreover all above leadership will assists for the development and motivation of the
worker. So that CAPCO has to adopt all above style to motivate their workforce in a positive

CAPCO use two motivational theory in a different way and to find out its effectiveness
towards the working comparison is must. Here theory and their comparison are listed as follows:
Maslow's motivation theory: This theory is divided into the sub parts in which first is
about employees basic pat that is get by them in a monthly. In this stage employee cover its
belongings that is essential for them. In this security need is also added in this security level of
employee is their. Such as pension plan and sickness is included in this. So that management of
CAPCO must take care of that workplace must safe and secure for the employee. CACPO must
take care of its group for work as a team in the workplace. In this management of the company
must take care of that is working in a effective manner (Kay and Heckhausen, 2015). So that
individual can full fill its social needs. CAPCO always take care of their employee and also their
self respect. In this company use 360 appraisal to recognize their individual contribution in the
workplace. Management of the company also use various plan and strategies for their employee
personal development as well as to recognition of skill (Organization theory, 2016).
Herzberg motivation theory: This theory is mainly about two things in this first is about satisfiers
and another one is about hygiene factor. In addition to that when management motivate their
worker to achieve their target for the same they get monetary incentives. In this management also
motivate or work it self basis in which worker take more attention towards the work as well as it
is also good to achieve for the same. In this CAPCO focuses on employee's promotion and
growth in the workplace so that it become easy satisfaction amount in the workplace (Scarantino,
2014).
In this company also focuses on hygiene factor which company has to focuses on this. In
this pay and benefits for the employee's such as how they get benefits from the organisation.

Company should adopt those working policies which is beneficial for the employee. In addition
to that company must take care for the job security of employee's.
Distinguish among both theory: As per the above study both theory are beneficial for the
employee's motivation in the workplace. Where Maslow's theory cover its all needs as discussed
above and its contrary to that Herzberg theory of motivation tries to satisfaction and take care of
their working place factor (Verba, 2015).
3.3

well as in a systematic manner. It is also assists for enhancing co-operation in the working
environment. When management of the company motivates its employee's to work in the group

satisfaction from the same. Managements use motivational theory to develop friendly
environment in a workplace as well as for employee's satisfaction. This will assists for reduction
in the industrial disputes and also misunderstanding (Neumann and Neumann, 2013).
Leads to stability of workforce: When company having pick load that time it is hard for fresher
to manage it. So that management must use motivation theory to boost their working energy in
the workplace. In addition to that company use various refreshments as well as motivate for
participate. This will assists for the development and employee's also work as a familiar one. It is
very important for management that they tries to communicate what actually the aim of working.
