Download or read book Managing Human Resources Challenges in Chinese Hospitality Industry written by Anna Stavroudi and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2017-03-09 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2012 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Miscellaneous, grade: 70,0, , language: English, abstract: The purpose of this project was to explore the possible challenges that could have been undertaken while managing Human Resources in Chinese hospitality industry. Above all, we have investigated in various industry experts’ HR practices in luxury hotel properties located both in China and USA and we have chosen to make a comparison amongst them. We have found that luxury hotels that want to achieve international levels of service quality ought to invest more time in hiring and training their Chinese staff. The research on that field and the further investigation on Hospitality Industry showed that the relationship amongst perceived human resources practices and hotel staff’s opinion is differentiated enough mainly because of Chinese hotel employees characteristic. That is their identified characteristic of lacking service mentality due to Chinese hotels’ policy of hiring staff based on personality traits and not on service mentality aspects. Furthermore, cultural differences and as well as institutional differences in human resources account for the differences that exist between Chinese staff in the hospitality industry in China and in United States of America.

Book Green Human Resource Management in Chinese Enterprises

Download or read book Green Human Resource Management in Chinese Enterprises written by Jie Shen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-26 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate social responsibility (CSR), and particularly environmental management, has now become a global social norm. As the largest developing economy in the world, China is currently a major environmental polluter. This book examines how Chinese enterprises, including both indigenous firms and foreign-owned organizations operating in China, utilize human resource management (HRM) to conduct environmental management, i.e. green HRM, also referred to as environmentally friendly HRM. Green HRM integrates HRM with environmental management and is implemented by firms to realize corporate green strategies by providing opportunities and motivating employees to become involved in environmental activities. This book explores how green recruitment and selection, green training, green performance management, and green pay and rewards are managed in Chinese enterprises, and how green HRM affects organizational green and non-green workplace behaviors. It enriches the current literature on green HRM practices and measures. It also advances our understanding of employee organizational behavioral consequences of green HRM, which is an emerging and understudied field of research. As such, this book offers practical implications on how to elicit desirable employee green and non-green workplace behaviors through green HRM policies and practices. This book will appeal to anyone interested in learning more about green HRM practices and the social and psychological processes through which green HRM influences employees, promotes green workplace behaviors and improves a firm's environmental performance.

Book Tourism and Hotel Development in China

Download or read book Tourism and Hotel Development in China written by Ray J Pine and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-03 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examine the reasons for the rapid growth of China’s tourism industry Tourism and Hotel Development in China: From Political to Economic Success is a comprehensive guide to the development of the tourism industry in Mainland China following the end of the Cultural Revolution. Conceived as a textbook but equally valuable as a professional resource for consultants, researchers, and tourist organizations, this insightful book tracks the unique circumstances that sparked the growth of China’s tourism and hotel industry from a political, diplomatic activity to a burgeoning economic industry. The book includes background information on geography, culture, history, politics, and economics, and examines the evolution of tourism policies, inbound vs. outbound travel, hotel operations and trends, and the Chinese government’s role in developing tourism. China may be a latecomer to international tourism development, but visitors have made it one of the world’s top 10 travel destinations every year since 1994. Since historic policy shifts in 1978 opened China’s doors to the outside world, inbound tourism has played a significant role in building a national economy. And the increase in disposable income among China’s citizens has helped create a sizable market for domestic and outbound tourism as well. Tourism and Hotel Development in China looks at the major factors and characteristics of each type of tourism, international hotel development trends and their influence on China’s hotel industry, related human resources issues, travel services, the development of hotel chains in China, compensation and incentive management, and the future of China’s tourism and hotel industry. Topics examined in Tourism and Hotel Development in China include: travel and tourism, pre-and post-1949 the Asia market the intercontinental market international tourism in different regions of China popular urban tourist destinations in China approved outbound destinations outbound travel to Hong Kong challenges facing travel services local protectionism travel agencies hotel franchising foreign vs. local hotel chains outsourcing and much more! Tourism and Hotel Development in China: From Political to Economic Success follows the journey of China’s tourism industry from a public relations vehicle, restricted by the economy and controlled by the government, to an important source of commerce for a country whose national economy was nearly on the verge of collapse.
