funding (and continued existence) was made contingent upon its producing a
strategic plan. The strategic planning model employed failed to produce results
until the author and associates were able to "jump-start" the process by the
successful application of conflict management techniques. This study focuses on

An often quoted management refrain is, “If you can't measure it, you can't manage
it.” So what is a nonprofit manager to do? There is no doubt that “not everything
that counts can be counted and not everything that can be counted counts” (
Cameron, 1963, p. 13). Nonprofits and managers worldwide who work in public
service struggle to define how they create social value and often feel dissatisfied
with outcome measures that obscure the spirit of their good work (Benjamin,
2012).

Strategic Management for Tourism Communities

Bridging the Gaps

Tourism, with its wide-ranging impact, needs to be managed effectively – but how? This book advocates taking a business approach to tourism that encourages greater collaboration between stakeholders in the practical assessment of tourism options. The approach places key business management functions and stakeholders at the forefront of tourism initiatives. The business management functions of planning, organising, leadership and control are the filters through which tourism opportunities are viewed, while the stakeholder groups of customers, residents, industry and government set the agenda for appropriate tourism development. Tourist destinations must engage in realistic assessments of their abilities to meet the needs and expectations of tourism stakeholders and then act on these assessments so their goals and objectives can be achieved. A new model for bridging stakeholder gaps is presented as a template for how communities can understand and make the most of their tourism resources. The Bridging Tourism Gaps Model is a practical tool to help destinations focus on the important factors in developing and maintaining tourism as a beneficial and vital part of their communities. This book builds on the success of Tourism: A Community Approach and the subsequent tourism planning experiences of both authors to advance strategic planning in tourism.
