Purpose: The purpose of this study is to gauge the effects of challenge and hindrance stressors as well as three high-performance work practices (HPWPs) such as training, empowerment and rewards on work engagement (WE) and turnover intentions (TI). This study also tests customer orientation (COR) as a moderator of these relationships. Design/methodology/approach: Data gathered from frontline hotel employees in Northern Cyprus in two time periods with a time lag of two weeks were used to test the relationships. Findings: The results suggest that both challenge and hindrance stressors heighten TI and empowerment fosters WE. Rewards alleviate TI. More importantly, COR acts as a moderator of the effects of challenge and hindrance stressors as well as training, empowerment and rewards on WE and TI. Practical implications: Management needs to hire employees high on COR and develop training programs that boost employees’ customer-oriented behaviors. Employees should also be allowed to craft the level of job demands and resources as long as the work is congruent with management expectations. Originality/value: This study contributes to the extant hospitality knowledge by testing COR as a moderator of the effects of challenge and hindrance stressors and HPWPs on WE and TI.

L’obsession pour la croissance économique domine le discours politique. Le déterminant principal de la croissance de long terme avancé par les théories de croissance endogène est l’innovation, mais l’environnement institutionnel de l’activité économique est également un élément primordial d’explication du rythme de la croissance, et en particulier, au sein de cet environnement, la concurrence, dont le rôle est très discuté. L’objet de cette thèse est d’étudier certaines dimensions de la croissance, de ses déterminants et des politiques qui cherchent à la favoriser, en particulier l’innovation et la concurrence. La première partie s’intéresse à deux types de politiques d’encouragement à l’innovation. La première est le soutien public direct, à travers une étude de l’impact du crédit d’impôt recherche (chapitre 1). La deuxième politique examinée est l’évolution du cadre juridique de l’innovation (chapitre 2). Le modèle théorique présenté entend tenir compte des nouvelles pratiques du droit de la propriété intellectuelle. La deuxième partie aborde l’environnement institutionnel au sens large, et en particulier la concurrence. Elle s’ouvre par une comparaison internationale du niveau de la concurrence entre la France et plusieurs pays européens dans divers secteurs s’appuyant sur une méthode économétrique fondée sur des équations de croissance (chapitre 3). Deux secteurs sont ensuite analysés en détail : la filière agro-alimentaire, dont l’équilibre a largement été modifié au profit de la grande distribution ces dernières années (chapitre 4), et le secteur hôtels-cafésrestaurants (chapitre 5). / Political discourse is imbued with an obsession for economic growth. The main determinant of long-term growth in endogenous growth theory is innovation, but the institutional environment of economic activity is also an important explanatory factor. In particular, within this environment, competition plays a major, though controversial, role. The purpose of this thesis is to study some aspects of growth, of its determinants and of policies that seek to promote it. Two aspects in particular will be studied, innovation and competition. The first part focuses on two types of policies aimed at encouraging innovation. The first policy is direct government support, studied through an analysis of the impact of the Research Tax Credit (Chapter 1). The second policy considered is the legal framework for innovation (Chapter 2). The theoretical model presented intends to take into account new practices in intellectual property law. The second part deals with the institutional environment in general, and in particular competition. It starts with an international comparison of the level of competition between France and several European countries in various sectors, using an econometric method based on growth equations (Chapter 3). Two sectors are then analyzed in detail : the food industry (Chapter 4), where the balance of power has been tipped in favour of large retailers, and accomodation and food services activities (Chapter 5).

This thesis focuses on the activation of the southwestern part of the Highlands Region. This section is not frequented by tourists. Those are just passing through this part, from the regional city of Jihlava in Telc, the historic town included on the UNESCO list. These two cities are among the most visited places in the Highlands, yet tourists around not delay longer. The reason is the lack of information about how to place and in particular the poor amenities.

Farstanäs Camping arrenderar en tomt i Södertälje, nordost om Järna, en anlagd strand med breda gräsmattor som skär in i mitten av ett naturreservat. Till och med sommaren 2021 har ägaren tillsammans med kommunen kommit till beslutet att campingen kvarstår, därefter är det osäkert och när jag kontaktar utvecklingssamordnaren för vidare information kommer svaret att det inte är bestämt.För att fortsätta främja bad, sol och se till att platsen förvaltas byggs ett konferenshotell i närheten av stranden med en publik pir som följer vattnet. Byggnaden inhyser även restaurang och lokaler som står fria för allmänheten. En större, kontinuerlig närvaro tryggar och förlänger säsongen, lokalerna går att hyra för evenemang och under sommarhalvåret kan de öppnas upp, bre ut sig mot skogen eller rulla ner i slänten.Gestaltningen av den nya strukturen vill gå jämte en tanke om social och ekonomisk hållbarhet, byggnaden smyger upp för backen och ska vara inbjudande. Solvarmt, bullar och kaffe. En lek både med klassiska material, lånade drömmar om romanser under en pir och livad dans på blekta plank. Tillsammans med de andra närliggande gårdarna gör piren en ny allé och svävar över landskapet, den gröna kryddhyllan, ingrodd i grön slamfärg, kan ge liv i en plats som börjat bli lite grå i kanten. Viken är välbesökt under sommarhalvåret och det här är ett initiativ för att kunna möta kommunens hopp om intäkter och att därmed konkurera med den pågående privatiseringen. De lokaler som annars skulle säljas ut eller rivas kan fortsätta förvaltas under nytt styre, campingen kan stå kvar många år till och närliggande verksamheter gynnas av både förbipasserande och de som vill stanna längre men kanske hellre nattar en bit bort. Badet förblir öppet för alla. / Farstanäs Camping leases a plot in Södertälje, northeast of Järna, a landscaped beach with wide lawns that cut into the middle of a nature reserve. Until the summer of 2021, the owner and the municipality have decided that the campsite will remain, after that it is uncertain and when I contact the development coordinator for further information, the answer recieved is that it has not been decided. To continue to promote swimming, sunbathing and ensure that the site is managed, a conference hotel is being built near the beach with a public pier that follows the water. The building also houses a restaurant and premises that are free for the public. A larger, continuous presence secures and extends the season, the premises can be rented for events and during the summer they can be opened up, spread out towards the forest or roll down the slope. The design of the new structure wants to go hand in hand with an idea of ​​social and economic sustainability, the building creeps up the hill and should be inviting. Sunny, buns and coffee. A play both with classic materials, borrowed dreams of romances under a pier and lively dance on faded planks. Together with the other nearby farms, the pier makes a new avenue and hovers over the landscape, the green spice shelf, ingrained in green mud color, can give life to a place that has started to get a little gray at the edge. The bay is well visited during the summer and this is an initiative to be able to meet the municipality's hope for revenue and thus compete with the ongoing privatization. The premises that would otherwise be sold out or demolished can continue to be managed under new management, the campsite can remain for many more years and nearby activities benefit from both passers-by and those who want to stay longer but perhaps rather a night away. The beach remains open to everyone.
