The Relationship

The relationship between scores on the Kirton Adaption-Innovation Inventory and the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator was examined among United States service-sector managers and compared to results found among British management students with work experience. Managers in the service sector were more innovative than the population in general. Statistically significant positive correlations were found between Kirton's innovation style and the Myers-Briggs intuitive and perceptive dimensions, thereby supporting the British findings. A statistically significant positive correlation was also found between Kirton's innovation style and the Myers-Briggs extraversion and feeling dimensions, in contrast to the British findings.

Remarkably, exposures to hospitality workplaces through internships have been found to rather dissuade students from envisaging hospitality career. However, knowledge of this phenomenon remains inconclusive. Consequently, this study explored the effect of internship work experience on undergraduate students’ commitment and perception of the nature of hospitality work using before-and-after design. A convenience sample of 171 hospitality management students in a Ghanaian technical university completed paper- and-pencil questionnaires, and data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The majority of the students indicated positive perceptions of hospitality employment and were accordingly willing to work in hospitality-related jobs after graduation. Contrary to the commonly held view, commitment, attitude, and perceptions of hospitality work do not undergo significant reconsiderations post-internships.
