Some of the theories are vroom expectancy theory, Herzberg two factor theory, Maslows motivational theory and so on. The vroom theory is based on to maximise the profits and minimize the issues that employees have in the firm.

  11. motivational factors. It is not beneficial for those who have to make long term patterns in order to identify the need of the people who are working in the company. Another theory is Herzberg two factor motivational theory that is based on the two elements such as motivator and hygiene. Hygiene factors are important for increasing the motivation among all the employees. If these factors are not present in the firm then it will lead towards the dissatisfaction among all the employees. Some of these factors are job security, policies, salary, fringe benefits and relationship among all the co-workers. On the other hand, motivators are related to the rewards, recognition, promotion at workplace and so on. Through these positive satisfaction can be increased among all the staff members. It has been argued by Wang and Hsieh, that this theory doesn't focus on the situational factors and the blue collar workers. The theory of maslow is based on the needs and wants of the employees at five different levels. He stated that these needs are divided into five stages such as physiological, safety, belongingness, self esteem and self actualization. It is Physiological needs are the basic needs of the employee that can be related to the salary and safety needs are related to the job security, medical insurance in the enterprise. Belongingness are based on the trust and acceptance among all the co-workers. Self esteem is related to the self respect, independence and so on. Self actualization is related to the potential of the employees that can improve the growth of an individual. By identifying these needs of an employee, British Airways can increase the satisfaction level of their staff members. Through this approach, the employee engagement can be increased so through the overall performance of the industry can be improved. Leadership Effect in Relation to Engagement at British Airways It is stated in the case study of British Airways that company is sharing their profits with their staff members in order to motivate them so they will be able to offer quality services to their employees.
