...Back to Hotel Strategic Management 101: An examination of hotels’ implementation of Porter’s generic strategy in China Yin-Hsi Lo, Assistant Professor of Hospitality Management, Southern Taiwan University, Taiwan ABSTRACT The market-position view (MPV) of the firm in Porter’s generic strategy hypothesizes that the exploitation of differentiation and cost-leadership can create competitive advantage for a firm, which then has a better chance of outperforming other firms in a homogeneous industry. However, this notion has not been tested in the Chinese hotel industry. In response to this gap, this study empirically examines the relationships between the generic strategies of differentiation and cost leadership and hotels’ organizational performance. The results suggest that differentiation is the only significant generic strategy that influences customer satisfaction in the Chinese hotel industry. These findings have important academic and practitioner implications, which are then discussed. Keywords: Competitive Strategy, Customer Satisfaction, Hotel Performance, Market Positioning INTRODUCTION There has been a great deal of discussion in the literature about the impressive hotel development in China in the past 20 years (Derbaix & Pham, 1998; Devonport, Biscomb, & Lane, 2008; Echtner & Ritchie, 1993; Fakeye & Crompton, 1991; C Fornell, 1992; Foxall & Goldsmith, 1994; Pine, 2002; Yu & Gu, 2005).

In this paper, the role of teamwork in regards to the food and beverage industry, entertainment, and accommodation will be discussed. Outcomes will be considered, and results of effective teamwork will be analyzed. Ultimately, each component of the industry will be examined in order to conclude how teamwork makes these businesses tick. 1. Food and Beverage The food and beverage industry is often a hectic one, but in order to maintain balance, teamwork, leadership, and communication is required. According to Introduction to Hospitality 6e (Walker), this chain of organization begins with the director of food and beverage. Walker explains that the director is responsible for the overview of restaurants, kitchen, room service, and lounges. In addition, Walker writes that the director must manage the business budget, provide proper leadership for employees, identify trends in the industry, and discover any means of achieving maximum profit capabilities. This may appear as daunting and overwhelming tasks, but none of this can be accomplished without the help of the co-workers. There are many active components within a restaurant that operate in sync to provide the upmost customer satisfaction. The kitchen may be considered to be the most challenging operation within the restaurant. Many individual tasks need to be managed and executed to provide proper customer service. In order to maintain...

Bordless Communication in Hotel Industry

...Introductions:-Hotel industry is where at any one time, people will be leaving the job on seeking employment or being needs change for a better work atmosphere. In other way around, the employers will be seeking new employees also. Mass consolidation has had an impact on cultural issues. Leadership teams now have a high focus on the evolution of the corporate culture with rigorous recruitment processes to ensure new employees fit the corporate ideal. The perceptions of hospitality industry work sit uncomfortably with notions of a knowledge economy. Tourism work has, historically, been calibrated in terms of its technical skills demands. This is most evident in the approach adopted by the International Labour Organization (1979) in their Taylorian breakdown of Hospitality work into individual, measurable micro-tasks that, in turn, can be re-built into a training curriculum and assessment instrument(Baum,1996). On the basis of this, hospitality, tourism and related service work has traditionally and widely been characterised as low skills (Shaw and Williams, 1994; Wood, 1997; Westwood, 2002) although this stereotype is challenged in the context of hospitality by a number of authors (Baum, 1996; Burns, 1997; Nickson et al., 2002; Baum, 2002, 2006b) on the basis that this represents both a technical and western-centric perception of work and skills.
