Opis: Background/Purpose: This paper explores how organisational values can help to understand the interlinks of hotel brands and their hotel rating. The study assumes that the importance of organisational values in the service sector represents one of the key components of both growth and development of an organisation. Methods: Conceptual content analysis was used on the dataset of organisational values found on websites of the top 100 European hotel brands. Advanced network analytic procedures were applied to identify clustered dimen­sions of organisational values among various hotel brands. Results: Results identified shared organisational values among hotel brands clustered into four predominant dimen­sions: entrepreneurial, stakeholders, moral, and tradition. The study confirmed wide content variability of organisa­tional values within the hotel brand industry. Conclusion: The cluster analysis identified clusters of the most important words from values statements, conclud­ing that hotel brands highly value “entrepreneurial” and “ethical” clusters. The island analysis approach on hotel brands’ level also reveals that organisational values in this sector are determined by many factors, including the scale and market positioning. Our study provides theoretical and practical implications to hotel brand strategists in order to better understand their current and desired sector position.

Opis: The book entitled »Exercises in Travel Writing and Literary Tourism – A Teaching and Learning Experiment« emerged as a result of experimental project work in teaching English during the subject English in Tourism – Higher Level 1 at the Faculty of Tourism in Brežice, University of Maribor. This approach included teaching in the classroom, research in libraries and at home, and field work. The collection brings eight very different texts on Travel Writing and Literary Tourism by Master's students of Tourism, who were free in choosing the topic of the texts, their styles and the titles . The field of Travel Writing is significant, not only as its own discourse, a tourism trend and a tool of branding and embedding attractions and/or destinations, but also as a tool of teaching and learning a foreign language, which, along with upgrading specific language knowledge, encourages curiosity, research, creativity, reflection and self-development.

Opis: Razmah globalizacije je podjetjem omogočil lažje poslovanje, hkrati pa se je zaradi večje konkurence na trgu pojavila večja potreba po inovativnem poslovanju. Podjetja so se začela povezovati in snovati strateška zavezništva, da bi okrepila svojo konkurenčnost na trgu. Ena izmed strategij strateškega povezovanja je co-branding ali partnersko povezovanje blagovnih znamk. Co-branding je oprt na sodelovanje najmanj dveh podjetij, ki s skupnimi vlaganji ustvarita nov skupen izdelek in njegovo pozicioniranje na trgu. Na takšen način lahko ustvarita številne sinergije, kot je hitrejši in olajšan vstop na nove trge, povečanje individualne prepoznavnosti in ugleda blagovne znamke, izboljšanje lastne konkurenčnosti, povečanje kapitala, izmenjevanje znanj, deljenje stroškov in tveganj. Kljub številnim prednostim pa se lahko podjetja v določenih okoliščinah soočijo tudi z nekaterimi tveganji in s slabostmi co-brandinga. V magistrskem delu smo se tematsko opredelili za co-branding kot strategijo managementa blagovnih znamk in strateškega zavezništva, pri čemer smo se najprej osredotočili na teoretično analiziranje mednarodnega marketinga, managementa blagovnih znamk in strateških zavezništev ter co-brandinga. V empiričnem delu pa smo se osredotočili na primerjalno analizo gospodarskih primerov co-brandinga med storitvenimi in proizvodnimi podjetji na domačem trgu ter na mednarodnih trgih. V empiričnem delu smo skupno opisali in analizirali 12 primerov co-brandinga iz gospodarske prakse proizvodnih in storitvenih podjetij. Najprej smo analizirali primere iz gospodarske prakse na domačem trgu, kjer smo opisali in analizirali 6 primerov co-brandinga, nato pa smo se osredotočili še na primere co-brandinga na mednarodnih trgih, kjer smo prav tako opisali in analizirali 6 primerov. Kasneje smo iz obeh delov analiz strnili spoznanja v skupno analizo in primerjavo obravnavanih primerov, iz katerih smo izluščili spoznanja o prednostih partnerskega povezovanja dveh blagovnih znamk. V sklepnem delu smo ugotovili, da so bili vsi analizirani primeri iz gospodarske prakse uspešni in da je co-branding zelo privlačna oblika strateškega povezovanja podjetij v proizvodni in storitveni dejavnosti na domačem trgu ter prav tako na mednarodnih trgih. Ugotovili smo, da je najpomembnejši dejavnik za uspešnost co-brandinga primerna izbira strateškega partnerja, saj uspešen co-branding ustvari številne sinergije za obe udeleženi podjetji. Pomembno je, da pred sklenitvijo co-brandinga podjetja ustrezno analizirajo potencialne partnerje, saj lahko ravno partner v co-brandingu omogoči uspešnost ali neuspešnost co-branding povezave. Skozi analizirane primere smo preučili različne tipe partnerskega povezovanja podjetij in ugotovili številne sinergijske učinke, ki jih le-to prinaša, kadar si partnerja delita enake oziroma podobne vrednote in cilje.

Opis: In the past few years, excessive efforts have been made to increase the city’s attractiveness and its international positioning. Also studies on the so-called city destination branding are on the rise. Theorists, as Ramirez (2001), Marzano and Scott (2009), among many others, are discussing different aspects of this complex process. Many approaches and strategies are dealing with the positioning of urban environments and city destinations, trying to provide at least some partial answers about achieving this objective. With proper marketing and branding, cities can do a lot to attract tourists and visitors. For successful city marketing and branding and for the successful long-term positioning of the destination in general, it is necessary to involve the key stakeholders and collaborate with as many as possible despite the fact that the branding of a city destination (or any destination for that matter) is a complex process. It is significant that all the stakeholders, who are always carriers of different interests, are invited to collaborate in the planning of the tourism development and tourism development strategies, from the government, the private sector, schools etc. It is also important to involve the citizens, who can provide a valuable opinion about the environment they live in – what they like about their environment, what suggestion would they give to tourists about gastronomy, attractions, shops, events, etc. It is significant that citizens are proud of their urban environment, that they know their own environment, and that they have the motivation for the involvement in the process of improvement of their home environment (through projects, discussions, etc.). It is impossible to create attractive urban environments or cities if residents do not have a positive opinion about the place they live in. That is why it is essential for the education institutions at all levels, but especially for the institutions at the primary levels to educate children, toddlers, pupils, students, about the importance of urban environment development and create a positive learning environment, where children are able to develop as residents with a great understanding of the potential of the environment they live in. The paper explores the importance of raising awareness of the urban environment in primary schools from the theoretical, analytical and practical point of views. In the paper, we will examine whether primary schools in the city of Maribor, Slovenia educate children about their urban environment, if they are creating positive learning environments, where children can develop into proud citizens aware of the significance of the urban environment and its consequences for the quality of their lives. Further on, the curricula in chosen primary schools in Maribor is going to be analyzed. With the survey, we will try to identify the degree of children’s awareness of their surrounding urban environment, the information they receive about their environment, and their attitude towards it. And finally, what is most important, we will try to show the extreme significance of the learning environment and the curricula for raising the awareness of the environment and growing into responsible adults who will also act responsibly towards their urban environments.

Opis: Konec prejšnjega stoletja je globalizacija posamezne države pripeljala do tega, da so se začele obnašati tržno. Konkurenca med državami je pripomogla k razvoju in uporabi blagovnih znamk za trženje držav in tako so se oblikovale blagovne znamke držav. Slovenija je že v preteklosti poskusila z uvedbo blagovne znamke na področjih turizma in gospodarstva, leta 2006 pa je prišlo do prvega resnega poskusa oblikovanja celostne blagovne znamke Slovenije. Na podlagi sklepa Vlade Republike Slovenije je Ministrstvo za gospodarstvo pričelo s postopki oblikovanja blagovne znamke, ki bo Slovenijo predstavljala na področjih civilne družbe, države, gospodarstva, športa, turizma, znanosti, kulture in umetnosti. Blagovna znamka Slovenije je bila z vsemi svojimi sestavinami, oblikovana leta 2007. Njena uporaba se je takoj pričela na področju turizma, sledilo pa je njeno uvajanje tudi na drugih področjih. Z diplomskim delom smo poskusili ugotoviti, kako je prišlo do nastanka blagovne znamke Slovenije, ter predstaviti elemente, na katerih blagovna znamka Slovenije sloni. V raziskovalnem delu diplomskega dela smo raziskali percepcijo in poznavanje blagovne znamke Slovenije ter njenih sestavin med ciljno skupino študentov. V ta namen smo, s pomočjo spletne ankete anketirali 100 študentov.
