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. 410 0$aInternational journal of contemporary hospitality management ;$v19, no. 2. 606 $aHospitality industry$xVocational guidance 606 $aCareer development 615 0$aHospitality industry$xVocational guidance. 615 0$aCareer development. 676 $a647.95068 701 $aJohns$b Nick$01605611 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813767303321 996 $aCulture and career development$93971408 997 $aUNINA
