Hotel deptt Organization

I will discuss how managers can organize important and repetitive functions in hotels to improve efficiency and reduce expenses,depending on situation.We will separate our discussion in different parts for different category of hotel administration.

Its managers job to give structure to hotel operations that will establish an authority and span of control for staff & business as a whole. We will talk here about independent owner/operator/manager .
