86. 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.

87. 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

88. Employment experience of immigrant workers in tourismAlja Žigo, Janja Gabruč, Emil Juvan, 2017, kratki znanstveni prispevek Opis: This research explores the experience of immigrants employed in tourism in Slove- nia. Four main areas were studied: (1) formal regulation of working and living, (2) health and social care, (3) job satisfaction, and (4) integrationinto the Slovenianen- vironment. The causes for this research were recent stories in various media regard- ingforeignworkersinSlovenianeconomyandlittletonoresearchstudiesinthefield of tourism. The idea of the article was to demonstratethe employment of labour mi- grants% experiences in tourism and to make proposals to improve the employment experience in the future. We started out by studying the existing theory, and then performed qualitative research, in which the employment experiences of four im- migrants was studied in the previously mentioned four identified areas. Interviews were carried out with immigrants from different countries and of different profes- sions,andwerelaterevaluatedwithcontentanalysis.Theresultsofthestudyshow that the employment experience of immigrants employed in tourism in Slovenia is both positive and negative, as there were positive and negative factors of experience identifiedin all areasof research.We do notwantto give a generalisedassessmentof theexperience,but rathershow certainviewsandexperiences;basedonthat,wecan learn.Theresultsdonotapplytotheentirepopulation,butwiththemwepresentthe diversity of the subject. The greatestlimitation while researchingwas finding partic- ipants. Initially, proposals for improvement are given on three levels; government, employer, and society. The main improvement should be the better flow of infor- mation, for which we suggest transferringmore information online. Slovene society should be striving for tolerance so that foreigners would feel more welcomed.
