“How might the business you have chosen improve the way that it motivates its staff?”
Introduction
For my controlled assessment the business that I’m going to focus on is Jaguar Land Rover. I will be analysing how they motivate their employees based at their local production plant which is in castle Bromwich, Birmingham as this is also local to where I live. The ownership type for this business is a public limited company; which is run by Tata Motors. Jaguar Land Rovers headquarter is located in Whitley, Coventry. They employee 19,000 employees directly. Jaguar Land Rovers manufacture and sell vehicles. They have been in operation for 90years.

Analysis
Current Methods
Jaguar uses a mixture of monetary and non-monetary methods of motivation for their staff so that they perform to the best of their ability. The methods that I will be looking into are the extra pay for working 37 hours a week, a jaguar car for a weekend and rewards for good ideas.
