Factors influencing food and beverage employees’ career success: A contextual perspective

Abstract

This study explored the important influential factors of Food and Beverage employees' career success in international tourist hotels and identified relationships among these factors from contextual perspectives. Data was obtained from a sample of 481 respondents drawn from 22 international tourist hotels in Taiwan and analyzed with the AMOS program. The structural equation modeling results showed that multiple contexts influenced the career success of F&B employees in international tourist hotels, such as the Micro-System, the Meso-System, including organizational psychological factors, the Exo-System, and the Macro System contexts. In particular, the Exo-System context was the most direct influential factor for career success.
