dc.description.abstract | Total quality management (TQM) has become popular in the hospitality industry. It proposes to elicit the cooperation and loyalty of employees in the pursuit of corporate goals via an educational, empowering and positively rewarding relationship entered into by staff with their subordinates. But is the outcome of a TQM programme 'in synch' with its appealing rhetoric? This hotel case study of TQM practice offers insights into the problems which can arise when there is apparently only lip service paid to the corporate programme, and a naive interpretation attached to 'employee resource- fulness'. | en_GB |
