Service Industry Management: Organizational Aspect

Abstract

In the conditions of social changes and economic modernization special attention should be paid to operation and development of the service industry as its degree of development mainly defines the rate of employment, living environment, and the level of life in the country. Estimation and management of the service sector from the operational point of view is performed with the help of principles of classification of business entities and peer grouping. This approach enables us to apply holistic analysis to functioning system and to take justified decisions. At present, all service entities based on the territory of the Russian Federation can be grouped according to the following characteristics: type of industry, economic activity, organizational and legal form, form of ownership, sector of economy, and location.
