problem In the trend of transitioning and developing Vietnam’s economy, the service sector, consisting of tourism and hospitality industry, has always played an important role According to The World Travel & Tourism Council (2014), the direct contribution of Travel & Tourism to GDP is “calculated to be consistent with the output, as expressed in National Accounting, of tourism-characteristic sectors such as hotels, airlines, airports, travel agents and leisure and recreation services that deal directly with tourists” (p 2) The total contribution of Travel & Tourism to GDP of Vietnam was VND311,117.0bn (9.6% of GDP) in 2013 and directly supported 1,899,000 jobs (3.7% of total employment) It is forecasted to grow by 6.3% per annum to VND299,846.0bn (4.7% of GDP) by 2024 and visitor exports are a key component of the direct contribution of Travel & Tourism (World Travel & Tourism Council, 2014) However, a survey recently launched by one EU-funded tourism development program revealed that a mere 6% of the questioned international tourists choose to return to Vietnam due to poor tourism services, inconvenient transport and inadequate investment ( Management Board of the EUfunded Environmentally and Socially Responsible Tourism Capacity Development Program, as cited in Tuoi Tre News, 2014) In the term of service evaluating criteria, this organization mentioned that the unprofessional workforce was one of the main reason causing services to be poor This survey fiercely challenges Vietnam’s tourism status quo and suffer its future objectives Therefore, the tourism and hospitality industry are strongly required to improve its operational efficiency of the workforce in providing services Zeithaml et al (as cited in Tsaur et al., 2003) stated that delivering good
