Employee disengagement is a problem that is costing the United States alone billions of dollars every year in lost productivity. In this study, the concept of employee motivation was considered as a means of optimizing work productivity and engagement in organizations. The purpose of this exploratory grounded theory study was to derive an operational model for sustaining employee motivation for leaders to implement in the wholesale and retail trade industry (WRTI) to enhance employee engagement in work. The overarching research question that guided this study was: How can employees in the WRTI be motivated and higher engagement be achieved? A qualitative methodology was chosen for approaching this study because employee motivation and employee work engagement are both subjective experiences and the psychological processes one goes through cannot be fully explored through a quantitative method. Grounded theory design was used because the study was about the understanding of a process and deriving a model. Sixteen participants were purposively selected from three WRT businesses in central Trinidad. The three instruments developed for collecting data were: a demographics questionnaire, an interview questionnaire, and an interview protocol. The conceptual framework utilized the Herzberg's motivation-hygiene theory and the Kahn's theory of engagement. From the data analysis, four themes were revealed. From the research it was posited that employee motivation is a dynamic and consequential phenomenon and it may be difficult to sustain. However, it was also posited that employee motivation could be sustained by avoiding the causal conditions that influence's their employees' demotivation in work.
