Managing Recreation, Parks, and Leisure Services: An IntroductionIt has been over twenty years since the first edition of 'Productive Management of Leisure Service Organizations' was conceptualised, written, and published. Now in its second edition, 'Managing Recreation, Park, and Leisure Services' considers three critical changes in the leisure service field: technology and information resolution; nature of the workforce; and the basic revision of our economy. These changes have made a great impact on the management of human resources, which is the main focus of this book. |
