20.500.12556/DKUM-93930 The dynamic trio the relationship between passion, perseverance and job satisfaction This work aims to enhance the understanding of the dynamic relationship between passion, perseverance and job satisfaction among tour guides, recognizing the interconnected nature of these elements and their impact on tourism experience. A quantitative survey was conducted among a representative sample of tour guides using two pre-existing validated questionnaires, allowing the results to be generalized to the entire population. The findings provide a comprehensive understanding of the complex dynamics within the tourism industry, particularly regarding tour guides. While passion, perseverance and job satisfaction are interrelated, their correlations exhibit specific characteristics; passion does not directly dictate job satisfaction, whereas perseverance is a significant contributor. This research emphasizes the importance of commitment, combining both passion and perseverance, and offers insights that can inform managerial decisions and human resources (HR) policies concerning tour guides in tourist agencies. tour guide passion perseverance job satisfaction tourism turistični vodnik strast vztrajnost zadovoljstvo pri delu turizem true false true Versita Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Znanstveno delo 2025-07-26 03:13:43 2025-11-11 09:50:26 2025-11-12 03:36:33 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 Str. 89-101 št. 2 Letn. 34 2024 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 2024-07-08 2024-08-05 2024-09-24 338.48 209213187 10.18778/0867-5856.34.2.06 2080-6922 Gorenak_2024_The_dynamic_trio.pdf Gorenak_2024_The_dynamic_trio.pdf 1 E2AFACE7DFD26D462723FD339E539333 b3538bf684533670fefdc5d25ce54e2bae4d8d10dad263cb1001d46be7c06bc7 441fc56d-bedb-11f0-9c6a-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=200541 https://doi.org/10.18778/0867-5856.34.2.06 0 62bb6a2a-bedb-11f0-9c6a-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=200542 Fakulteta za turizem 0 0 0
