Tourism
is a service industry. Efficient
running of the tourism sector depends
upon purposeful and smart management.
Management is a process of designing,
maintaining an environment in which
individuals working together in
groups efficiently accomplish selected
aims. Management applies to small
and large organizations, manufacturing
as well as service industries. In
order to run organization efficiently,
several managerial skills are required
along with the application of management
principles. They are technical skills,
human skills, conceptual skills
and design skills.
Tourism is found as a highly complex
phenomenon. Management techniques
such as planning, statistics and
market research are involved and
used extensively in day to day tourism
enterprises to reach their heights
of success and this has resulted
in development of a proper management
framework in which tourism can fit
through proper planning, organizing,
developing and promoting research
work.
