Attitude:

An attitude is a positive; negative or mixed evaluation of an object that is expressed at some level of intensity.

It is an expression of a favorable or unfavorable evaluation of a person, place, thing or event. These are fundamental determinants of our perceptions of, and actions toward all aspects of our social environment.

Attitudes involve a complex organization of evaluative beliefs, feelings, and tendencies toward certain actions.

Types of attitude

• Cognitively-based: beliefs about an attitude object
• Affectively-based: feelings towards an AO
• Behaviorally-based: observations on how one behaves towards an AO

Origins of attitudes

• Personal Experience (conditioning)
• Social learning
• Genetic Factors

Relationship between attitudes and behavior
Attitudes may mostly predict behavior but.

Why do attitudes sometimes inconsistently predict behavior?

1. Situational factors: constraints that make it difficult to express your attitude
2. Attitudinal factors :
   1. Attitude strength: more likely to follow through on strongly-held convictions
   2. Specificity: general attitudes don't predict behavior well

Components of attitudes

Attitudes about something are composed of different individual aspects/parts

Attitude functions

1. Knowledge activation (tell us about a set of different but related objects)
2. Identity (express who you are)
3. Behavioral guide

Attitude component disagreement

e.g. love taste of chocolate, but think it's bad for body, hate to jog but think it's good for body

Consumnatory behavior (intrinsically-motivated)

such as eating, playing, sex: affective attitude (what we feel) component is better predictor

Instrumental behavior (extrinsically-motivated)

such as money, fame, good grades: cognitive attitude (what we think) component is better predictor

External Awareness

Understands and keeps up-to-date on local, national, and international policies and trends that affect the organization and shape stakeholders' views; is aware of the organization's impact on the externalenvironment.

• Demonstrates an understanding of the organizations functions and responsibilities.
• Considers organizations capabilities, mission, vision, values, and strategic goals and objectives in work efforts.
• Knows capabilities, capacities and constraints of the organization.
• Reviews external information and news to learn about political and social issues that might affect the organization.
• Identifies individuals who have the technical expertise to respond to inquiries on specific topics.
• Knows both when and how to effectively escalate issues that warrant immediate attention.
• Uses discretion when handling sensitive matters/content.
• Keeps current on formal and informal reporting relationships.
• Identifies opportunities based on unique cultural needs.
• Demonstrates an understanding of the interrelationships of foreign and domestic agencies and governments.

Customer Experience

• Customer experience, also known as CX, is your customers' holistic perception of their experience with your business or brand. CX is the result of every interaction a customer has with your business, from navigating the website to talking to customer service and receiving the product/service they bought from you.
• Customer experience implies customer involvement at different levels – such as rational, emotional, sensorial, physical, and spiritual. Customers respond diversely to direct and indirect contact with a company. Direct contact usually occurs when the purchase or use is initiated by the customer. Indirect contact often involves advertising, news reports, unplanned encounters with sales representatives, word-of-mouth recommendations or criticisms.
• Customer experience encompasses every aspect of a company’s offering—the quality of customer care, but also advertising, packaging, product and service features, ease of use, and reliability Creating direct relationships in the place where customers buy, use and receive services by a business intended for customers such as instore or face to face contact with the customer which could be seen through interacting with the customer through the retail staff We then have indirect relationships which can take the form of unexpected interactions through a company's product representative, certain services or brands and positive recommendations – or it could even take the form of "criticism, advertising, news, reports" and many more along that line.

Communication

Communication is the act of conveying meanings from one entity or group to another through the use of mutually understood signs, symbols, and semiotic rules.

The main steps inherent to all communication are:

1. The formation of communicative motivation or reason.
2. Message composition (further internal or technical elaboration on what exactly to express).
3. Message encoding (for example, into digital data, written text, speech, pictures, gestures and so on).
4. Transmission of the encoded message as a sequence of signals using a specific channel or medium.
5. Noise sources such as natural forces and in some cases human activity (both intentional and accidental) begin influencing the quality of signals propagating from the sender to one or more receivers.
6. Reception of signals and reassembling of the encoded message from a sequence of received signals.
7. Decoding of the reassembled encoded message.
8. Interpretation and making sense of the presumed original message.

Influence

The capacity to have an effect on the character, development, or behaviour of someone or something, or the effect itself. The word “influencer” is usually used in relation to media figures with large social media following. It is true that if one of them endorses a product, such as a new line of perfume or a movie, it is likely to impact the sales. These sales can be quantified and therefore one can confirm that these people are indeed influencers. This seems to validate an assumption that large social media following equals an influencer.

Accountability

Personal accountability can be defined as taking ownership of one's thoughts, behaviors, actions, and performance. Someone who has developed a high level of personal accountability is resilient, resourceful, and honest. Importantly, you can count on them to follow through on the things they say they will do .Accountability has three tiers: First, it means doing what you say you're going to do. Second, it includes accepting responsibility if you are for some reason unsuccessful. Third, it drives the discussion for meeting or modifying an objective after failure.

Interpersonal Skills

Interpersonal skills are essential in customer service, and will, therefore, be practiced every day whilst working in the hospitality industry. Interpersonal skills are those gained by interacting with people around you. They are social skills such as empathy, negotiation, listening, creative thinking, patience, and tolerance. As the hospitality industry is customer-focused, staffs have to deal with multiple questions and problems every day. The ability to ‘think quickly on your feet’ is learned swiftly, so that staff can deal with these issues effectively. Problem-solving is also essential in order to manage your time and is closely related to the Interpersonal skill of the student.

Leadership: To Increased Productivity

By training your leaders in effective leadership skills, you can increase the productivity of your workforce. Leaders are there to provide direction to staff and ensure they are performing at or above expectations.

• To Nurture Future Leaders
• Leaders are meant to be the thought powerhouses to which employees and associates turn for advice and direction.
• To Develop Better Emotional Intelligence
• Emotional intelligence is one of the main personality traits that makes for a great leader.
• Adaptability to Change
• The business environment is constantly changing, and as such, leaders need to be able to recognise this change and adapt to it.
• Leadership is the essence of all traits mention above

Adaptability

In order to stay relevant in today's world we all need to adjust to how customer demographics, attitudes and lifestyles are changing; while the cost of doing business is being redefined. Thus hospitality persons are like CHAMELEON. Adapt communication styles to different individuals in order to make sure that the message gets through. Be a master in written, visual and verbal communication. Adapt to different countries, culture, customs, mentality, etc; Develop human relationship skills. Learn to work under pressure, obtain a broad view of life. Become a better, more tolerant and more understanding human being.

Stress Management

In any industry the employee become stressed and affects the employees output in related area of work. But in hospitality industry the stress part is very crucial and can drastically affect his contribution and it can also result in workers becoming exhausted and cynical which can have negative effects on service delivery to guest Because the industry has long working hours, multicultural, multi disciplinary and multinational staff, co operation and co ordination with other departments, and language barrier staff can have stress. So we need proper questions to analyze how the students can express the ways of controlling his stress to perform tasks more efficiently.

Results Oriented

It is basically to describe an individual or organization that focuses on outcome rather than process used to produce a product or deliver a service. As such, a number of processes are used where the most effective and economical process is identified.

Conflict Resolution

To develop the skills of management by resolving the conflict between two parties and to find a peaceful resolution of the dispute by using different techniques of conflict resolution i.e.negotiation, Arbitration etc.

Initiative

Initiative is all about taking charge. An initiative is the first in a series of actions. Initiative can also mean a personal quality that shows a willingness to get things done and take responsibility. An initiative is the start of something, with the hope that it will continue.

Customer Acquisition

Customer Acquisition means gaining new customers or existing prospects to become new customers for your business. The targeted customers are one who are not aware about your products and services or they have bought from your competitors.

Creative Thinking

Creative thinking is the ability to invent and/or create something new: be that a concept, a solution, a method, a work of art, or an actual, physical device. Creative thinking is based on looking at things in a new way that hasn't previously been considered.

Professionalism

Professionalism is the conduct, behaviour and attitude of someone in a work or business environment. A person doesn’t have to work in a specific profession to demonstrate the important qualities and characteristics of a professional. Professionalism leads to workplace success, a strong professional reputation and a high level of work ethic and excellence.

When we talk about professionalism in Tourism and Hospitality sector then it holds the maximum degree of importance to be followed. As the Industry is very dynamic and rapidly changing so to sustain and retain professionalism is the key to hold the sector in every aspect.

The tourism and hospitality sector a service oriented sector and it requires skilled professionals for understanding and reciprocating behaviour and consumer analysis in Hotel Industry, Guest Host Relationship, Travel Agent, Tour Guide, Tour Escort , Tour Manager so that the service would lead to a positive impact on the customer and guest which will be only possible by following professionalism parameter .

Change Management

Change management is a systematic approach to dealing with the transition or transformation of an organization's goals, processes or technologies. The purpose of change management is to implement strategies for effecting change, controlling change and helping people to adapt to change. Such strategies include having a structured procedure for requesting a change, as well as mechanisms for responding to requests and following them up. The change management process must take into consideration how an adjustment or replacement will impact processes, systems, and employees within the organization. There must be a process for planning and testing change, a process for communicating change, a process for scheduling and implementing change, a process for documenting change and a process for evaluating its effects. Documentation is a critical component of change management, not only to maintain an audit trail should a rollback become necessary but also to ensure compliance with internal and external controls, including regulatory compliance.

Environment

Environment refers all the conditions, circumstances, and influences surrounding, and affecting the development of, an organism or group of organisms.

Environment and Nature-based tourism is any type of tourism that relies on experiences directly related to natural attractions and includes ecotourism, adventure tourism, extractive tourism, wildlife tourism and nature retreats. India is working hard towards protecting its natural assets and sustaining its indigenous cultures. Tourism in India also supports and sustains local economies that are dependent on this revenue, by using local produce and creating economic opportunities for local communities.

Sustainability

Sustainability focuses on meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. The concept of sustainability is composed of three pillars: economic, environmental, and social—also known informally as profits, planet, and people.

Sustainable tourism, one that establishes a suitable balance between the environmental, economic and socio-cultural aspects of tourism development, plays an important role in conserving biodiversity. It attempts to minimize its impact on the environment and local culture so that it will be available for future generations, while contributing to generate income, employment, and the conservation of local ecosystems.

By doing so, sustainable tourism maximizes the positive contribution of tourism to biodiversity conservation and thus to poverty reduction and the achievement of common goals towards sustainable development.

Sustainable tourism provides crucial economic incentives for habitat protection. Revenues from visitor spending are often channelled back into nature conservation or capacity building programmes for local communities to manage protected areas.

Furthermore, tourism can be a key vehicle in raising awareness and fostering positive behaviour change for biodiversity conservation among the millions of people travelling the globe every year

Ethics

At its simplest, ethics is a system of moral principles. They affect how people make decisions and lead their lives. Ethics is concerned with what is good for individuals and society and is also described as moral philosophy. The term is derived from the Greek word ethos which can mean custom, habit, character or disposition.

Ethics covers the following dilemmas:

• how to live a good life
• our rights and responsibilities
• the language of right and wrong
• Moral decisions - what is good and bad?

Our concepts of ethics have been derived from religions, philosophies and cultures. They infuse debates on topics like abortion, human rights and professional conduct.

Approaches to ethics

Philosophers nowadays tend to divide ethical theories into three areas: met ethics, normative ethics and applied ethics.

• Meta-ethics deals with the nature of moral judgement. It looks at the origins and meaning of ethical principles.
• Normative ethics is concerned with the content of moral judgements and the criteria for what is right or wrong.
• Applied ethics looks at controversial topics like war, animal rights and capital punishment
