- Management of modern organisations in the context of Lithuanian smart tourismPublication . Samuolaiti, Mindaugas; Raupelienė, Asta; Brusokas, Andrius; Dinis, Maria Alzira Pimenta; Ložkinas, Adas; Leal Filho, Walter; Safaa, Larbi; Perkumienè, Dalia; Dinis, Maria Alzira PimentaIn the management of each tourism organisation, one encounters essential factors characteristic of the management of organisations, but in each of them, efforts are made to improve both different factors and based on different methods. In managing a modern tourism organisation, several external and internal factors are of great importance. These include a strategic focus, the external environment, product innovation, effective marketing and cooperation, customer experience and quality management, human resources, organisational culture. Only a tourism organisation that applies and considers these factors in its activities is enabled to achieve the highest possible results, service quality and competitiveness. This study aims to evaluate the management of a tourism organisation from the perspective of a modern organisation. The interview method was used to achieve the research results. The research was done in 2024. The findings of study show that the importance of managing modern tourism organisations has been emphasised in the scientific literature. This emphasis extends to the need for purposeful adaptation and improvement. The modernity of a tourism organisation is expressed through its constant ability to adapt to the ever-changing environment, embrace learning and development, and foster innovation. The research reveals that modernity is associated with the uniqueness of the tourism organisation. Adaptation to the ever-changing external environment means constant monitoring of trends, adaptation of new technologies, and development of internal organisational culture, encouragement of employees’ courage and freedom, and self-expression. In terms of the application of new technologies in tourism organisations, the continuous improvement and simplification of the system is significant, but there is no rush to use the benefits provided by the artificial intelligence tool.
- Tourism and heritage: shaping sustainable and innovative futuresPublication . Leal Filho, Walter; Safaa, Larbi; Perkumienè, Dalia; Dinis, Maria Alzira Pimenta; Leal Filho, Walter; Safaa, Larbi; Perkumienė, Dalia; Dinis, Maria Alzira PimentaThis book brings together multidisciplinary contributions from various academic and professional backgrounds, addressing the challenges and opportunities of sustainable tourism. It focuses on diverse themes such as the management of intangible cultural heritage, responsible practices in the tourism sector, and technological innovations, including artificial intelligence. This book provides a comprehensive view of the sector through a variety of perspectives, taking into account environmental, social, economic, and legal aspects. This diversity allows for the exploration of complex issues such as the sustainable management of natural resources, the protection of tourists' personal data in a digital context, and partnerships between tourism actors and local communities for the preservation of cultural heritage. One key issue explored is the growing role of technology, including reflections on the use of artificial intelligence in combating tourism-related cybercrime. The contributions come from authors affiliated with a wide range of institutions, representing internationally renowned organizations from regions as diverse as Europe (Belgium, Lithuania, Latvia, Hungary, France, Italy, Portugal, Spain), as well as Turkey, Africa (Morocco), and Asia (China). This geographic and institutional diversity enriches the discussion on sustainable practices and innovations in the tourism sector, integrating both local and global perspectives. The accessibility of public spaces and leisure services for tourists, as well as market segmentation, are also discussed. This book stands out for its interdisciplinary approach, combining theory and practice to provide researchers, tourism professionals, policymakers, and heritage managers with innovative tools and strategies. It offers concrete and ethical solutions for the development of sustainable tourism that respects the cultural and natural values of territories, while addressing contemporary demands for social and environmental responsibility.
