The culture of hospitality: From anecdote to evidence 2019 http://ezaposleni.singidunum.ac.rs/rest/sciNaucniRezultati/oai/record/2/7317 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016073831930146X?via%3Dihub Т. Радојевић N. Stanišić N. Stanić We examine the effects of hotel workers' national culture on hotel guests' satisfaction with services rendered by the workers. The results suggest that workers from countries scoring low on Hofstede's cultural dimensions named Individualism and Indulgence are particularly gifted for rendering high quality hotel services. Interestingly, many Asian countries, including Japan, Pakistan, Hong Kong, China, Lebanon, India and the Philippines have advantageous overall cultural profiles, which is consistent with portrayals of the Asian (or Eastern) hospitality culture in the scientific and professional literature. The insights presented in this study have important implications for the processes of staff recruitment and training in the global hotel industry. article 10.1016/j.annals.2019.102789 79 1 14 0160-7383 ANNALS OF TOURISM RESEARCH
