In today’s global and highly competitive business world what essentially differentiates one organization from another are the people who work there. Regardless of the technological advantages of a hotel or a travel agency, the people, their development, motivation and satisfaction are key factors for success on the market. Therefore, many hotels started applying competency models to determine skills, knowledge and personal characteristics needed for good business performance. The advantages of this model are also reflected in the recruitment, selection, training, development, promotion, performance evaluation, and rewarding employees. The emphasis is on the selection of career advancement criteria by the multi-criteria decision-making process, the essence of which is to identify all available criteria for comparing possible alternatives, to compare all the alternatives according to the selected criteria, and thus to choose the most favourable alternative. The aim of the research is to develop a software package that will, based on executive manager’s selection in a hotel and a travel agency, present specific steps of business decision-making application in the field of human resources. The AHP method is used to conduct a weight analysis of professional competencies prioritized for future reference in terms of career advancement. Sampling methods for data collection from eight top hotel managers and five travel agency managers are used for the purpose of this paper, as well as qualitative and quantitative surveys including interviews and questionnaire. A detailed case study illustrates the application of the proposed evaluation system for management staff advancement in tourism and hotel industry. The estimated results show that the most important criterion is professional knowledge, followed by business planning and subsequently team work and foreign language skills.This solution is general and can also be applied in candidates ranking for employment, promotion or training.

AbstractIn the context of new environmental paradigms for the efficient customization of both traditional and renewable energy systems, the international regulations aim to be effective sources of alignment. The control practices in a big state-owned enterprise are the concepts implemented in this paper into a multi-criteria decision-making model for understanding, observing and accommodate the personnel for reaching high service quality. The best practices for effective policy design are alternatives in an Analytic Network Processes model designed and estimated by the staff in the audit department of the Romanian Regulatory Authority for Energy (RRAE). This model integrates all the national and international regulations at which the Romanian Regulatory Authority for Energy adhered and it determines what is the practical measures need to be taken at the level of each and every employee, in terms of individual forms of evaluation, so that principles regarding the implementation of the energy efficient systems produce tangible effects. The conceptual instrument considered for the effective alignment is the internal marketing. Internal marketing as a method built the foundation of a multi-criteria decision-making model whose alternatives are employees” evaluations forms. The model designed and estimated by staff in the audit department of the Romanian Regulatory Authority for Energy is developed using the analytic network processes theory (ANP) and the SuperDecisions software.
