Analysis of Industry

3. The selected industry is accommodation, cafes, and restaurants.
It includes accommodation and food services. After graduation,
I have a plan to work in this industry. I aspire this industry as it
includes a variety of services. It usually has a scope that
includes a variety of services. In society, services like these are
of great importance. First of all, accommodation services
always have a place in society. People always acquire such
services. People need cost-efficient accommodation services
along with quality (Beehner & Blackwell, 2016). On the same
hand, one of the biggest industry in society is the industry of
food services. These services are acquired by any society all the
time. Therefore, this industry would lead to a great response in
society.
This industry has specific aims, especially regarding indigenous
communities. The industry specifically looks over the native
communities. It just not provides the services but also bring
multiple opportunities of growth for native people. It also
provides job opportunities to natives and thus contributes to
their regional development a lot (Bazerghi, McKay, & Dunn,
2016). This industry provides growth opportunities and includes
associations like food nutrition industries and different trade
associations. It brings services for those people who mostly
travel for conferences, network or charitable events or other
events. On the other hand, the views of the broader public are
positive. It is greatly admired by the public as it brings multiple
opportunities for the public.
The figure for people involved in this industry is larger. Only
the number of employees is in millions. It is estimated that this
industry has been employed almost 3 to 4 million people. These
people are serving in different positions. These are great in
number. The large proportion is of bartenders, waiter, waitress,
combined food preparation and serving workers, and restaurant
cooks. There are managers for different positions who have
made strong check and balance on the performance of other
people. This industry has changed a lot since it was first
established. The industry has grown its services and expands its

These skills are usually maintained by having supervised

To enter this profession, a bachelor's degree is needed in
hospitality, management or food service management. People
who have already experience in the same field are highly

organizational skills (Boo, 2017). These food service managers
are responsible for the daily operations of the restaurant and
other establishments. This profession needs great management

5. It is a sort of intra-management. There are multiple co-
curricular activities that lead to the accomplishment of various
goals within time. I have gained my personal strength within
this industry. It is because these strengths will help me further
in the future.
On the other hand, I found some weaknesses. I have often
interpreted those weaknesses at various times. I often found
myself behind in evaluating behaviors of other group members.
I have a need to develop negotiation techniques with other
members. The important thing above all is evaluation and this
also needed command. My experience has to lead me often with
serious conflicts with other group members. However, I have
learned to control myself. It has helped me to give self-
confidence.

my skills and interests. I believe that a food service manager
can only work well if he knows how to manage the team.
Service is a tricky field and therefore needed to be taken
