Most of the five-star hotel chains from Western countries had adopted the typical style of human resource policies and practices from abroad, yet they ignored family friendly practices. Some policies such as child care and nurseries in the workplace need to be adjusted for Thai culture. All four hotels indicated that they provided valuable and supportive opportunities to develop all their managers. They believed that women managers will benefit from the training programs because women managers will develop their managerial skills to help them balance their work and family more professionally. Supportive development programs were offered to all women managers such as time management skills, coaching, mentoring, English language training, and team work. This is important because all organisations need to encourage their very best women managers to stay rather than quit to other careers. In addition, the hotel industry can play a leading role in assisting and supporting females in establishing and maintaining work and family balance. / Thesis (DBA(DoctorateofBusinessAdministration))--University of South Australia, 2006.
