Our previous articles did focus on hotel owners and investor’s shortcomings, their habits and mistakes.
This article I like to focus on the shortcomings of some general managers. A general manager is a leading position that can lead to either failure or success.
The below are some of the comments we get from hotel owners and investors when they are talking to us about their hotel manager or general manager here in Thailand.
We trust that you see our articles as a benefit for hoteliers, owners and investors at all times. However, knowing the industry well, I foresee that this article might well trigger lots of comments.

Many organizations that I work for in the past, or even the ones at present, either in a role of consultant, trainer or employee, every corner of the company often fills with employee’s complaints.
For example heavy work load, favoritism, nepotism, managers’ bad behavior, un-knowledgeable manager, shortage of man power, or other various general management problem. From much conversation I have with people, it is found that most employees in most organizations expect the HR manager or HR department to solve the above mentioned problem. Sometimes, it is sad and almost unfair, that the HR manager is expected to do it all alone.

It all sounds so good, so sweet, so kind and so inviting, doesn’t it?

I am writing now a few articles about some serious
challenges a consultant or manager might face sometimes. Out of respect, and to
be professional, I will not mention any names.

operate a hotel or resort.

.. a talk at Queen
Sirikit National Convention Center, Thailand
During crisis, most times, we think about
training staff, stop overtime-time payments, cut expense on your Human
Resources, unpaid leave policy or even lay offs. I cannot say this is wrong, as long as it is
most suitable and relevant to the situation.
On August 6, 2009 I was invited to be one
of the panelists talking about “360 degree management for the tourism and
hospitality industry during a “crisis” – organized by KBank, Thailand at Queen
Sirikit National Convention Center. (I
personally admire KBank a great deal for their continuous educational
activities for their clients and non-clients as what they have done reflecting
a sincere banking business).
I wish to summarize some of my talk in this
article as well as to extend some subjects here that I only lightly talked
about at Queen Sirikit Convention Center.
