Analysis of management on the development of regional tourism in Europe

Abstract

The presented article focuses on examining two important areas within the framework of tourism development in the region, namely development management and cooperation of the interest groups in the tourism industry in the region. The main goal of the presented article is threefold: (1) identifying and measuring the perceived rate of problems in development management in the tourism industry, (2) identifying and measuring the perceived rate of problems of cooperation between the interest groups in the tourism industry, (3) examining connections between problem rates of development management and cooperation between interest groups in tourism. Based on professional literature, key factors (problems) in these areas were identified. Subsequently, tools to measure the rate of development, the reliability of which was verified based on McDonald's omega, were created. The article is supported by a primary survey in which 95 experts on the topic of regional tourism from Europe participated. The results indicate an average to above-average perceived rate of problems within the examined areas. An examination of the relationships between the problems of development management and the cooperation of interest groups in the development of regional tourism can be considered significant, where significant positive connections were confirmed. The results add to the knowledge base of the issue in question. At the same time, it is possible to identify practical benefits within the framework of identification, quantification and comparison of individual problems within the framework of tourism development.

Innovations and Tourism Regions: are Innovations Perceived as A Problem in Regional Development in European Tourism?

“…The explanation for this result is that tourism regions located in an economy with a mature innovation environment are able to adapt innovations and achieve synergies from a cross-sectoral approach (Brandao et al, 2018;Booyens & Rogerson, 2017). The collaboration of actors in the tourism region together with the maturity of the region's management are the basis of its prosperity (Michalkova et al, 2023). The existing innovation environment and, consequently, the innovation potential in the tourism region are the initial determinants of the intensity of innovation activity in terms of the adoption of product and process innovations (Romao & Neuts, 2017;Kofler et al, 2018;Rubera & Kirca, 2012;Nepierala & Szutowski, 2019;Lin, 2013).…”

Evaluation and Spatiotemporal Differentiation of Cultural Tourism Development Potential: The Case of the Middle and Lower Reaches of the Yellow River

“…The potential level, the spatial pattern of potential intensity and the spatial aggregation characteristics of potential intensity obtained from this study must be further tested for universality. (2) The selection of evaluation indicators in this study is only based on the existing research results, and there is a lack of diversified selection methods, such as selecting evaluation indicators through expert consultation [81]. (3) The discussion on the attribution of influencing factors is limited.…”

Management of the Development of the Regional Markets for Poultry Products in Ukraine

“…To determine the mathematical relationship between regional market development indicators, we will use the calculation of correlation coefficients (Boyko, 2010;Michalkova et. al., 2023).…”
