Customer Loyalty Directives And Employee Turnover Intention: A Qualitative Hospitality Industry Study
The problem of high employee turnover in the hospitality industry is a critical leadership challenge. The focus of this qualitative phenomenological study was the determination of the perceptions, reactions, and experiences leading to retention intentions of frontline hotel employees whose job responsibilities included compliance with customer loyalty directives. Analysis yielded the emergence of six relevant themes: training, directives, customer orientation, compliance failure consequences, customer complaint experiences, and customer loyalty experiences. The findings indicate that compliance with customer loyalty directives and hiring employees with high customer orientation did not result in increased turnover intention
The Debye-Waller Factor in solid 3He and 4He
The Debye-Waller factor and the mean-squared displacement from lattice sites
for solid 3He and 4He were calculated with Path Integral Monte Carlo at
temperatures between 5 K and 35 K, and densities between 38 nm^(-3) and 67
nm^(-3). It was found that the mean-squared displacement exhibits finite-size
scaling consistent with a crossover between the quantum and classical limits of
N^(-2/3) and N^(-1/3), respectively. The temperature dependence appears to be
T^3, different than expected from harmonic theory. An anisotropic k^4 term was
also observed in the Debye-Waller factor, indicating the presence of
non-Gaussian corrections to the density distribution around lattice sites. Our
results, extrapolated to the thermodynamic limit, agree well with recent values
from scattering experiments.Comment: 5 figure
Computerâaided photoâidentification of a rare stingray, Megatrygon microps
We have defined protocol for photoâidentification to identify individual Megatrygon microps. 104 identification photographs were taken between 2005 and 2019. Spot patterns on the dorsal surface were used to identify individuals. Unique scarring on 8 reâobserved M. microps provided an independent confirmation of pattern stability of up to 761âdays. Previously, studies have lacked statistical testing to validate photoâidentification approach. The I3S photoâmatching software was proven to successfully match images, identifying 69 individuals. A photoâmatching software facilitates an openâsource platform for identifying individual M. microps, allowing for better population assessments
