The hotel and the open systems model of organisational analysis

Article Abstract:

The standard of management in the hotel industry should not be isolated from that of other industries. Hotel managers should take notice of the management techniques and doctrines in other industries since they all share certain charactistics of service such as high fixed costs, labor intensive, low wages and unsocial working hours.
