It is suggested that the successful implementation of sustainable HRM begins at the organizational level, while also recognizing the interaction of the economic environment on the organization's processes and its effects on its local environment, economically, socially and environmentally. The macro-level and organizational-level considerations in implementing a sustainable HRM approach are discussed.","PeriodicalId":433223,"journal":{"name":"Tourism in development: reflective essays","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122502768","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This chapter discusses this pattern of development and some of the enabling forces that have influenced and shaped tourism and its effects, and comments on some key issues that warrant further examination. These include the pattern of development in destinations, the determinants of the spatial spread of tourism, the fallacies that have grown up around tourism and the lack of influence of academia on the phenomenon despite decades of study. In conclusion, some thought is given to potential future issues and directions for the development of tourism.","PeriodicalId":433223,"journal":{"name":"Tourism in development: reflective essays","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129766298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
