ABSTRACT
As the fastest expanding hotel market in the world, China is currently experiencing a serious labor shortage. Early career management is essential for academics and practitioners to retain graduates in the hospitality industry, and for students to successfully compete in the labor market. Coordination is the key issue presenting a challenge to early career management. The purpose of this study is to identify the barriers that impede young hospitality talents’ early career management programs (which are mostly practical training programs and internship programs). A coordinating conflicts model was created based on in-depth interviews. The model includes 16 coordinating barriers from six sources identified by industry practitioners from China’s Tier One cities: society, the government, hotels, institutes, family, and students.
摘要
中国作为全球酒店市场发展最迅速的国家正在经历严重的人才短缺危机。早期职业管理不仅可以帮助酒店教育界和业界把学生留在酒店行业，也可以帮助毕业生更好地提升就业竞争力。校企协作是早期职业管理面临的最大挑战。本文的研究目的是探寻酒店对年轻的酒店人才进行早期职业管理时遇到的障碍，尤其是早期职业管理中的实践实习阶段存在的问题。本文采用了定性研究方法，采访了部分中国一线城市国际品牌酒店的人力资源部经理。在深度访谈的基础上，本文形成了校企早期职业管理协作冲突模型。该模型指明了酒店和院校在早期职业管理协作中遇到的来自社会、政府、酒店、院校、家庭和学生的十六项障碍。
