Here's what I have on Tesla and Kmart, not too much detail but I think it'll be enough. Hope it helps
Tesla:
Maslow
- Meets the higher levels of the hierarchy due to employment of highly-skilled staff
- Belongingness provided through social events
- Esteem through promotions, performance-related pay
- Self-actualization through innovation and career advancement
4 Drive
- To defend: employees allowed to defend their jobs after performance appraisals led to 400 terminations. This isn't a good thing because employees should not feel the need to defend their position, fixed through more supportive management.
Goal Setting
- Can be applied to all employees
- Tesla's innovation and creativity - occurring through goal-setting
Use of this theory can lead to more environmentally friendly / sustainable products
Kmart:
Maslow
- Most of the Java employees would be at the lower end of the hierarchy- only receiving pay
- Social events could be encouraged to build a sense of belongingness within the Java workers
4 Drive
- Drive to bond - Java employees could be motivated through social sessions
- Drive to acquire - Employees might want more than just base pay, especially if they prove commitment to Kmart
- Drive to learn - Offering of career advancement in factories to motivate staff & increase productivity
Goal Setting
- Can link goals to productivity
- Requires feedback from management which may be hard to do over 11 large-scale factories in Java

I spoke to my teacher about this exact q and he said that we don't need to know it as its not specified in the key skills (unlike operations, change etc etc which it is)
