Abstract
This research was designed to explore the career path differences in hotel management between men and women and to analyze the impact of gender in the hotel industry in Canada. It also explored management capabilities and how they are influenced by gender, career choices, and type of property. Number of moves, number of positions, and type of property as defined by star ratings and size, were the independent variables. The findings indicate there are very specific differences in career paths between men and women and hotel organizations can become more competitive by enhancing their human resource practices to encourage more women to ladder into hotel executive positions.
