Hospitality operations are labor intensive. While technology has reduced the need for staff in departments such as accounting and the front office, it has not generally affected the number of employees required to produce and deliver the products and services that guests desire. Recently employed staff must acquire the knowledge and skills needed to become proficient in their positions. Their more-experienced peers must obtain new knowledge and skills to keep up with an ever-changing workplace. Effective training is critical to attain these goals." -Human Resources Management in the Hospitality Industry Ch. 6
