Abstract

This project is focused to identify desirable characteristics of hotel executives from hotel management companies. Research is conducted by studying articles in industry periodicals, journals and those involving business management. A questionnaire to 13 hotel management companies is used to obtain objective data as a practical source for this study. The study identified desirable personal and professional characteristics of hotel executives and other related information from the analysis of responses. The findings of this study are the most part accordance with previous studies and with widely held beliefs in the industry. These may be used for reliable criteria in selecting and evaluating hotel executives by hiring parties as well as provide a guide for future executives to develop themselves to be a desirable hotel executive. Several recommendations for further study are suggested in relation to the topic of this project.
