1)GMs sometimes face difficult decisions when they are employed by a management company and operate a branded hotel. In such situations, the GM's loyalty can be tested because of the conflicting interests of staff, guests, the brand, the management company, and the hotel's owners. Consider a situation in which the financial interests of two (or more) of these groups directly conflict. What would be in the best interests of each party in your example? To whom do you believe GMs owe their greatest loyalty? Why? Explain your reasoning. 2)If offered the chance and provided financing, would you like to manage a hotel in another country? Why or why not? Explain your reasoning.
