This research suggests the guidelines for how hotel leaders should manage their employees and build employee loyalty that improve management and business performance. Research design, data, and methodology - This study tests the structural relationship between LMX, work stressors, work role performance, and employee loyalty. Work role performance divide into three sub-dimensions such as individual task proficiency, individual task adaptivity, and individual task proactivity. In order to examine the purposes of this research, research model and hypotheses were developed. All constructs were measured with multiple items developed and tested in the previous studies. The data were collected from 113 franchise hotel employees and were analyzed using SPSS 22.0 and SmartPLS 3 program. Result - The findings of this research are as follows. First, leader-member exchange(LMX) have significant positive impacts on work stressors, work role performance, and employee loyalty. Second, work stressors have significant negative impacts on work role performance and employee loyalty. Third, work role performance has significant positive impact on employee loyalty. Conclusions - The outcomes of this research indicate that hotel leaders should focus on the dyadic relationship with their employees how to improve employee productivity through LMX relationship. In turn, the quality of this relationship influences employees's work attitudes and behaviors. As a result of increasing job demands in hotel business which relies heavily on human resources, the hotel leader must find ways to prevent or reduce stressors and associated strains. If hotel employees perceive the high quality of LMX relationship, they improve their work role performance which influences loyalty. Therefore, the hotel leaders should develop monetary or non-monetary reward system for the employees and, make an efforts to have unique social exchange relationships with employees.

The study aims to investigate the nexus of between role identity, self-efficacy, feeling of energy, and employee creativity in the hotel industry of Korea. The employees' innovative behaviors like creativity have been many researchers' interest for decades in the hotel industry. The hypotheses depicting the relationship among the variables have been proposed based on a review of existing literature. The number of 215 cases was used for final analysis and the results were explained through structural equation modeling. The results indicate the hotel employees' role identity and creative self-efficacy positively influenced their feeling of energy. Further, both role identity and creative self-efficacy make significant impact on employee creativity. Feeling of energy also makes a positively significant impact on employee creativity. Feeling of energy partially mediates the relationship between the two independent variables and employee creativity. As a result, creative role identity, self-efficacy, and feeling of energy explain the variance of the hotel employees' creativity. The results present that hotel practitioners need to regard their employees' creative roles and build organizational culture to support creative activities so as to enhance employee creativity.

The purpose of this study was to examine the impacts of brand personality and employee personality on employee brand identification. The questionnaire developed for this study was distributed to 460 employees in F&B (food and beverage) departments and kitchen of 11 deluxe hotels in Seoul. A total of 398 questionnaires were used for analysis (86.5%) and the statistical analyses were completed using SPSS Win(12.0) for descriptive analysis, reliability analysis, t-test, and regression analysis. The results showed that employee brand identification was stronger at higher position, and also stronger among F&B department employees than among kitchen cooks. In addition, international hotels showed a higher level of employee brand identification than local hotels. Employee brand identification was also affected by hotel brand personality and employee personality. The dimension of 'sincerity' had the strongest effect on brand identification, followed by the dimensions of 'excitement' and 'sophistication'. Especially, when the hotel brand personality was lower than the employee personality at the dimension of 'sincerity', the level of employee brand identification was much lower. Overall, employee brand identification, which is a key factor for successful brand delivery to customer, could be enhanced through strong strategies to improve the brand personality dimensions and enhance employee development.

본 연구는 호텔기업에서의 상사의 리더십이 종사원의 신뢰 및 집단응집력에 어떤 영향을 미치는가를 나타내었다. 첫째, 호텔종사원의 리더십은 신뢰 및 집단응집력에 모두 통계적으로 유의한 상관관계를 가지고 있었다. 그들의 잠재능력 및 창의력을 최대한으로 발휘하게 하기 위해서는 조직 내에서 리더십에 대한 관심을 증대시킬 필요가 있다. 둘째, 신뢰는 집단응집력에 매우 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 집단응집력은 어느 조직에서나 마찬가지로 서비스 조직에도 많은 긍정적 결과를 가져오기 때문에 호텔종사원들은 이런 결과에 관심을 가져야 할 것이다. 따라서 호텔종사원은 이에 걸 맞는 인식과 교육제도 등을 파악하여 앞으로 적용 시킬 수 있어야 할 것이다.

본 연구는 국내 특급호텔과 레지던스 호텔의 업무 프로세스가 종사자들의 직무만족과 고객만족에 어떠한 영향을 주며 직무만족과 고객만족은 호텔 및 레지던스 호텔에 어떠한 영향을 주는지를 알아본 실증연구이다. 본 연구의 결과 국내의 호텔과 레지던스 호텔에 종사하는 종사자들은 효율적인 업무프로세스가 진행될 때 자신들의 직무에 만족을 하며 그 직무는 고객만족에 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 종사자들의 직무만족은 고객의 만족과 더불어 조직의 성과에도 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 본 연구는 국내의 호텔과 레지던스 호텔간에 종사자 직무만족은 어떠한 차이점이 있는지를 알아보기 위한 연구로서 그 결과 호텔과 레지던스 호텔의 경우 동일한 결과가 나왔다. 이러한 결과는 레지던스 호텔의 경우 일반 호텔 서비스의 특징에 레지던스 호텔의 특징인 장기투숙, 객실의 확대, 거실의 제공 등 호텔 서비스를 바탕으로 이루어졌으며 이는 국내의 레지던스 호텔의 종사들은 자신들이 근무하는 곳이 호텔과 동일하다는 인식을 가지고 있으므로 이를 비즈니스적 관점에서 접근하기 위해서는 호텔에서 제공하는 기본적인 서비스를 포함한 다양한 서비스가 이루어져야 한다고 할 수 있다.

Most countries have their own culture that presents different types of behaviour. The employees' specific ways of working, according to each country, influence its organisation, thus cultural differences have become an essential issue in operating management. Therefore, this study explored how the different cultures based on Hofstede's paradigm interact within the specific Korean context. This study examined how cultural related HRM practices were enacted in the Korean hotel industry, how the frameworks of Hofstede's model impact the employee outcomes, including the concept of organisational justice. This study followed a quantitative approach which relied on a positivist paradigm to evaluate the different HRM practices at hotel workplaces with the view of employees. This study gathered a survey on 601 hotel employees in the deluxe sector. The analysis of quantitative data was undertaken using SPSS version 23.0 software and AMOS 23.0 to achieve the research aim for the study. This study contributes new findings to the research literature. The results of this study showed how Confucianism also plays a predominant role in understanding Korean culture, more than the Hofstede's original four dimensions of culture.

Self-administered questionnaires were completed by 345 employees and the data were analyzed by frequency analysis, factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. The primary results were as follows: Multiple regression analysis showed that hotel employee physical attractiveness had a positive significant influence on self-esteem ($\beta=.504$, p<.001) and self-efficacy ($\beta=.441$, p<.001). Also, employee selfesteem ($\beta=.281$, p<.001) and self-efficacy ($\beta=.478$, p<.001) each had a positive significant influence on person-job fit. As a result of analyzing the mediating role, the effect of hotel employees' physical attractiveness on person-job fit was partially mediated by self-esteem and self-efficacy.
