Noteworthy is the holistic excellence model adapted to technology-based   companies, which integrates the advantages of other systems such as balanced   scorecard, European foundation for quality management (EFQM) and holistic   marketing (HM). This issue presents several interesting theoretical approaches   always accompanied by the respective case studies. Examples of which are the   top down and the bottom up approaches, the social network perspective, the   process of strategic alignment, the perspective of Miller and Friesen and   Greiner's approach. </font></p>     <p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Regarding the area of Management, we have important   topics as entrepreneurship, banking, industrial management (with various   articles), human resources, accounting, marketing in the cosmetics and luxury   clothing sectors, corporate social responsibility and education in Management. </font></p>     <p><font size="2" face="Verdana">In the area of Tourism We'd like to refer the main topics   as marketing for the hotel, the effect of user-generated content in the image   of tourist destinations, internationalization of hotel groups, the importance   of the real effective exchange rate, competitiveness, cultural heritage   management, decentralization of the public administration of tourism, and   quality of life in the governance sector. </font></p>     <p><font size="2" face="Verdana">This issue provides an important theoretical and   applied contribution to different thematic areas of Management and Tourism.   Consequently, we thank the authors and reviewers for their valuable   collaboration and excellent work. </font></p>     ]]></body>
