3. Systems approach to cultural tourism and eventsTadeja Jere Jakulin, 2019, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: In this paper, we will present the systems approach methodology, which has been widely used in the natural sciences and engineering for the last seven decades since Ludwig von Bertalanffy published his manifesto on general systems theory (1952) and Norbert Wiener his on cybernetics (1948). The intention of general systems theory and cybernetics is the "ontology" of action, which is shown by feedback information. Its goal is to find a method to predict the consequence of a decision-making action. Industrial engineering recognised it when Forrester published Industrial Dynamics (1961), and social sciences rediscovered it with Senge`s work on the learning organisation The Fifth Discipline (1990). Cultural tourism is an element of a complex tourism system within global and local dimensions, in which cultural events, as even smaller elements, play essential roles within the range of tourism goods and services. As a methodology for the research of complex phenomena, the systems approach will explain two of its methods, systems thinking and modelling, as those that can significantly influence decision-making when taken into account.We will show the appropriateness of the methodology within cultural tourism decision-making and modelling.

9. The transfer of travel habits from childhood to adulthoodAnja Lazar, Janja Gabruč, 2017, kratki znanstveni prispevek Opis: This study examines whether touristsʹ travel habits and patterns transfer from their childhood to adulthood and which elements of their vacation are most commonly repeated in their adulthood. We have examined this phenomenon through a sur- vey questionnaire which has been completed by 111 respondents who take vacations regularly. The survey presented two sets of eleven pairing statements relating to the following travel elements: destination, spatial repetition, frequency, duration, tim- ing, organization, travel party composition, type of vacation, vacation activities, ac- commodation and travel mode. First set of eleven pairing statements referred to the presentwhilethesecondsetreferredtothepast.Wehaveexaminedrepetitionbycal- culating correlations between pairing statements. The results have shown existence of weak correlations between the majority of pairing statements which suggests rep- etition of repetition of childhood patterns and habits. The highest repetition rate has been noted with transport, activities and time elements, while no correlation has been noted with frequency element.

10. Business model innovation in tourism : how to survive in highly competitive environmentsRobert Ambrož, Doris Gomezelj Omerzel, 2017, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: The objective of this research is to clarify the role and the importance of the business model in tourism and to demonstrate the necessity of changing the business model to maintain competitiveness. By employing the Osterwalder nine-block business model Canvas framework, an interview with the manager of Slovenian tourist agency was conducted. Without the innovation of individual segments of the business model or, more often the majority of its dimensions, the firm would not have survived. In our case, the necessity of innovating the business model was confirmed by the statement of the agency%s manager: %In any case, without changes, we would no longer exist on the market; without future changes, we will no longer exist on the market either.% This article presents a single case study; therefore, the results may have limited generalisability. Everyday changes in competitive markets should be met by the innovation of business models. Tourism firms must be able to articulate and innovate their business model if they want to survive in a rapidly evolving competitive global market. Although studies on business modelling are common in the tourism sector, little about them has been documented regarding the tourism sector in Slovenia. Hence, this study, which focuses on a Slovenian tourist agency, aims to fill this knowledge gap. Our case is particularly interesting, because we have demonstrated the interdependence of segments and their modification, we have shown that the business model is already present in the tourist agency, and we articulated it Ključne besede: tourism, business model, Canvas business model, innovation Objavljeno v RUP: 20.11.2021; Ogledov: 396; Prenosov: 72
