You work in the HR department of a nationwide department store chain. Normally, you work as a recruiter, but since the start of the most recent hiring freeze, you are assigned to help produce a case study review. Your first meeting on the report is with the HR Director, the VP of Sales, and an internal project manager.
This group will soon be making recommendations to the board of directors about ideas for the new employee motivation program. They ask you to do some academic research and produce a report that will help them prepare for their meeting. They tell you that the department store has found the average ages of both the employees and customers are steadily rising. "Most people on the sales floor are late 40s or early 60s," says the VP of Sales, "I just need to know how to motivate them," he says. As the meeting comes to a close, your HR director hands you a sheet of paper with instructions and a list of academic journals.
