Case Incident #1: Developing a High Performance Service Culture
You are the newly hired human resource manager reporting to the owner of a new five-star resort hotel opening up on the white sand beaches of the western coast of Florida. For this new venture to succeed, you need to make sure that hotel employees focus on providing customers with the highest quality customer service possible. You are meeting to discuss how to create a high performance, high commitment culture that will promote such high-quality service, encourage employees to be committed to the hotel, and reduce the level of employee turnover and absenteeism, which are typically high in the hotel business.
