Do people still have high intention to travel during post-covid period in China? The role of destination marketing
Jiaojiao Zhao
ABSTRACT
This paper aims to review the destination marketing and the changing behavioral intention to travel during post-COVID period. The recovery and boom of the tourism industry becomes increasingly important due to its pivotal status, and the study of marketing strategies provides academic support and evidence for the policy makers in the tourism industry in the post-pandemic era. However, the operationalization of the smart destination concept and implementation of roles and functions of destination strategies remain poorly understood. This study brings an inter-disciplinary perspective including management. The research on the relationship between smart destination marketing policy and the intention of tourists ensures the destination to emerge as an integrated place physically and technically, and improves the quality of life for residents. The contributions made in this article acts as a provider for tourism agencies with a better comprehension and evaluation. In the meantime, it contributes with the improvement of the experience and expectancy of tourists during and after their travel.

The impact of Covid-19 on SMEs in the food industry in Malaysia
Pooja Beesoon, Mamata Bhandar
ABSTRACT
A pandemic is not a new phenomenon in the society as it has been present previously in history. However, COVID-19 is a time where many of us are experiencing a pandemic for the first time. Since its apparition in the beginning of the year 2020, COVID-19 has shown various negative effects on the society and the world’s global economy. Continuous lockdowns and movement control orders imposed by the government have brought many changes when compared to how the world used to function and these have impacted the economy and its stakeholders. This qualitative study revealed that cash flow challenges, consumer behaviour and market demand, operation disruption, increased operating costs and new strategies were the main impacts on the Covid-19 on the SMEs in the food service industry in Malaysia. Hence, this study could contribute to SMEs and future entrepreneurs in implementing training programs, which could polish their skills and prepare them for future possible pandemics.

The influence of leadership skills on organizational management: a conceptual review
Liu Yi, Nur Zulaikha
Abstract
In today’s extremely competitive and dynamic economic world, great managers are a necessity for any corporate organization. Leadership is a concept that is a multifaceted and complicated phenomenon, and It is found that the leadership style is having a direct relationship with organizational management and organizational performance. With this view in mind and based on Katz’s leadership theory, this conceptual paper proposes that a skills-based view of leadership recognizes the true potential of leaders suitable for impactful organizational management. To be successful, people merely have to put in the effort to acquire the qualities of a good leader. This is promising for those who want to succeed but lack the qualities or intrinsic skills advocated by the other leadership philosophies. A skills-based leadership theory makes it simple to choose a manager by making a list of each candidate’s abilities in crucial areas.
