Organisational characteristics and the practice of strategic planning in Jordanian hotels

This study examines the effects of some organisational characteristics on the practice of strategic planning in Jordanian hotels. Data was collected via a questionnaire survey of Jordanian hotels in two cities: namely Petra and Aqaba. The results indicate that Jordanian hotels engage with the strategic planning process by using a number of its techniques and that the nature of this engagement is affected by organisational size but not by type of ownership.
