Human Resource Management in Hospitality Cases adopts a practical case-based approach to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills in future hospitality managers. Using tried-and-tested real-life scenarios, this book thoroughly prepares hospitality students for a career in the field.
'As a hospitality and culinary educator, it's great to see a book that is focused on the specific needs of our industry, rather than one that uses generic scenarios. The vignette approach allows for the discussion of relevant cases, rather than just stating theory. A welcome addition to the limited body of knowledge related to human resources in the hospitality industry.'
