Teaching human resource management in hospitality and tourism: a critique

Abstract

Argues for more real and in‐depth understanding of the industry ‐ theoretical and conceptual interpretations of human resource management issues ‐ to be provided to students before operational and presumptive models. Suggests that students are currently uncritical perpetuators of the status quo rather than effective and thinking would‐be managers ready to change things for the better.
