Further, the development of practical solutions from field or case studies are beneficial for creating valuable learning effects for both firms and destinations alike. The examination of one risk scenario and its successful or missing management might be beneficial to create useful learning effects for the future. Therefore, it is essential to understand contemporary issues and future challenges of family firms in the hospitality/service industry and to examine different perspectives at an individual, firm, and destination management level.
Resiliency Models and Addressing Future Risks for Family Firms in the Tourism Industry provides an in-depth examination of tourism family firms, since these firms are essential for supplying solutions for challenges such as dealing with uncertainty, becoming or remaining resilient, and creating sustainable tourism destinations. The chapters address the challenges of sustainability and resilience in an uncertain world and connects knowledge from family business research to tourism research, focusing on hospitality. Highlighted topics include organization ambidexterity, pandemic risk, firm management and leadership, and technology use in firm operations.
This book is essential for family firms, hotel management, entrepreneurs, restaurateurs, tourism professionals, academicians, researchers, and students seeking the most advanced research on family firm's resilience and risk management within the tourism industry.

About the Author
Gundula Glowka is currently working as a doctoral student at the Family Business Center at Management Center Innsbruck, Austria. Before, Gundula Glowka completed her Master’s degree in International Business and Economy at the University of Innsbruck, majoring in strategic management and marketing. In her recent research, she focuses on the risk behaviour of small and medium-structured family businesses. Her research interests are on how owner-managers perceive, identify and deal with risks in such informally structured businesses. Previous studies therefore explore the link of Enterprise Risk Management on performance in small and medium structured family firms and the effect of family involvement and CEO tenure as moderating variables. In tourism, Gundula Glowka examines the risk perception of family business-owners and its impact on destination development.
