COBISS.SI-ID: 263507712Tourism Confidence Index (TCI) for 2011 is above 100 for the first time since the beginning of the economic crisis. Slovenian tourism managers evaluate the year 2011 as relatively successful. However, there is no reason for excessive optimism. Tourism managers see opportunities for improved competitiveness in 2012 in innovativeness, improved offers and development of new tourism products, marketing, promotion, sports and other events. Among threats for tourism development in 2012 managers identify uncertain economic situation, pressures on price decreases, poor cooperation and poor airline connections.

COBISS.SI-ID: 20535526In the awarded paper the authors explore how using performance management (PM) tools impact the exit hazard of firms by considering a sample of Slovenian firms during the recent economic crisis. The paper finds that, when firm and industry characteristics are not accounted for, the firms that used PM tools in 2007 experienced around a 6 percentage points lower hazard of shutting down during the current economic crisis. Further, our study supports the view that firm size and age are more important determinants of a firm’s survival probability than the influence of using PM tools (and other firm characteristics) due to a strong and significant correlation between the use of PM tools and firm size and age.
