"The Fourth Industrial Revolution blurring physics, biology, information and communication technologies into new collective cyber-physical systems brings unraveled challenges to business and society. This book showing how to turn these challenges into strategic opportunities in the context of hospitality and tourism organizations thriving at the forefront on customer value creation is a "must have" for current and aspiring managers. It adopts an eclectic approach to current issues emerging with innovation and technological advancements, while rooting the theoretical reflection deeply into classical strategic management framework developed by Michael Porter. This book provides a unique forward-looking overview of what it takes to strategize, improve organizational performance and sustain competitive advantage by revolutionizing the business boundaries. Get it now!" Evelina Gillard, Senior Lecturer at César Ritz Colleges, Switzerland and University of Derby, UK
