Many studies have assumed the importance of cultural values and/or personality in the service orientation of individuals. The findings presented here, however, emphasize the importance of training and development in preparing individuals to give service. This is heartening to the industry, which faces increasing challenges through globalization and immigration. From these studies it seems that not only can the predisposition to service as a whole be fostered by training, but also front line staff's orientation towards particular styles and standards of service. This is good news for any organization that wishes to respect and manage its multicultural work force.International journal of contemporary hospitality management ;19, no. 2.Hospitality industryVocational guidanceCareer developmentHospitality industryVocational guidance.Career development.647.95068Johns Nick1605611MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910813767303321Culture and career development3971408UNINA
