influence on the GDP of the nation. There is two major organization of travel and tourism
industry such as Thomas Cook and TUI that are providing the high-quality services and products
to the customers in a significant manner. The management style of both organizations is adopting
different management styles to develop and design the products and services that use the trends
and requirements of the market. The training program is given by them to increase the
productivity of the staff.
Thomas Cook
It is the organization that provides high-quality services and products regarding travel and
tourism. The role of the management of this organization is crucial to handle the efficiency of
development and designs of services. The management style has been adopted by this company
is Active management style which facilitates to run and maintain the operations and linking with
the members of the staff (Lub, Nije Bijvank, Matthijs Bal, Blomme and Schalk, 2012). With the
help of this management style, Thomas Cook is able to focus on other areas such as
physiological requirements, safety along with the self-actualization process that facilitates them
to encourage the employees of the company to develop their performance. The ability of the
organization is increased due to the adoption of this management style. This management style is
different from others as it assists the organization to get feedback from customers so that the
possible changes can be done within the organization due to their feedback (Schoar and Zuo,
2017). Along with that, it aids to plan the activities for the organization to meet the standards

Management Skills 6
regarding benchmark for the employee. Active management style is efficient in order to
encouraging the employed to perform the job in an efficient manner to amplify the revenue of the
company.
TUI
TUI is considered as the leading brand in the industry of travel and tourism that provides the
satisfactory services to its customers. It has been analyzed that the company uses Consultative
management style for managing the staff in an efficient manner. This style of management
facilitates the manager and supervisor of TUI to forecast the activities and requirements of the
company. It is able to find the gap and work as the need assessment in which it is able to find out
that area that require training and motivation to meet the objectives of the company. The services
of this company according to this management style are developed after analyzing the views of
the staff members and gathering the relevant information (Gursoy, Maier and Chi, 2008). It is
considered as the conceptual process regarding target analysis. This management style assists the
organization to increase the two-way communication and assign the responsibility as per the
skills of the employees.

1.2 Leadership characteristics of a manager
Autocratic and participative leadership style is being adopted by Thomas Cook as it facilitates
the business to take the decisions without any interruption. It has been analyzed that due to the
adoption of effective leadership an employee of the company can take the decision freely without
any restructures ad keep their viewpoints and opinions in front of employees. There is entire
authority control. The company has followed the leadership style and advantages the employees
who need close supervision. It has been analyzed that the nature of autocratic leaders is same as
automobile engines that handles the entire function on its own. The autocratic leadership style is
considered as the self-driven (Braun, Peus, Weisweiler and Frey, 2013). For instance, the
manager of Thomas Cook has the authority to take a decision involving marketing matters,
financial and judicial which is deemed as an autocratic leader (Walker, 2008). Likewise, if the
top authority of Thomas cook takes decisions in the context of its employee without involving
them in the decision-making process, it is called as an autocratic leader. However, the process of
decision making is fast in comparison to others due to the lesser involvement of people in the
process of decision making. Task-oriented situations are taken by the organization that is why
the autocratic leader of the company does work more effective by taking considered as the
groups for each employee to be capable to concentrate of their own task (Li, 2008).
It is vital for the organization to have the participative leader as this leadership has huge
importance in the context of team members, but the concluding responsibility of decision making
is taken by the participative leader. This kind of leaders motivates the employee and makes them
realize that they are valuable assets for the company and their contribution towards the
accomplishing the task is huge (Hughes, 2014). The feature of participative leader facilitates
Thomas cook to support in the changing environment in which the employees of this company

Management Skills 8
can adapt the change easily with the support of this leadership style. It has been found that
various kinds of leadership styles remain in the work environment in which it entails advantages
as well as disadvantages in each leadership style. The aim and culture of the business decide
which leadership would be suitable for the company. The adoption of the leadership style is
dependent upon the requirement of the tasks to accomplish and departmental requirements; there
are various organizations that adopt different kind of leadership style (Katzenbach and Smith,
2015).

will facilitate them to attain the objectives of the company in a significant manner in which they
can understand their role and responsibilities towards attaining the goal. I will observe the skills
and capabilities of each individual of my team member to assign the roles and responsibility.
Motivation
The role of motivation is huge to boost the morale of the employees. It is essential for me to

effective. The manager of the company should collect the original time feedback from customers
as well as staff to recognize the concerns and the make the map resolution as soon as possible.
Trained staffs have more efficiency that is why it is required for the organization to conduct the
need assessment for finding the area that needs for training (Nohria, Groysberg and Lee, 2008).

The role of communication within the organization is integral as it provides the understanding of

process of communication to manage the entire system of their office. It is considered as the
basic process of interaction between the staff and the management for providing efficient
information and gathering feedback from the employees of the company regarding the issues
(Carmeli, Atwater and Levi, 2011). The changes can be done in an efficient manner due to
effective communication as it provides the reason behind the requirement of amendments within
the process. There are two businesses such as Thomas Cook and TUI that use different
communication process to manage the information by which they keep the staff update.
Email
Email is the effective method among hospitality organizations because it considers as a formal
process that offers the information to staff at number of different level of the business. The
management of Thomas Cook is using this method to share the knowledge and directive to staff
members. It is an upward communication process that put an affirmative impact on the approach
of the communication of travel and tourism process. Management is able to provide the detail
information about the staff for dealing out and handling the operations along with the resources
as per the culture of the organization (Mauri and Minazzi, 2013).

Management Skills 14
Meetings
It is another method of communication that facilitates organization to maintain the interactions
with the employees in a sophisticated manner. Thomas Cook has conducted the meeting within
the organization which is efficient in the relation of getting the actual reaction of the employees
of the company regarding the specific project and management practices. The management of
Thomas Cook is utilizing this process to interact with supervisors and managers of various
departments to provide them way regarding the staff motivation, monitoring the performance,
working environment as well as the delegation of the responsibilities (Nadiri and Tanova, 2010).
Written
It is considered as the traditional method of communication that use the business including
notice, letterheads and notice for various levels such as upper level and lower level staff.
However, these processes consume a lot of time as well as a fund for processing and providing
the information.
In the context of TUI travel business, it uses communication method to share the information of
the company among stakeholders. The communication method of this company implies Verbal
communication, written communication, and face to face communication. The same process of
