520 _a"May you live in interesting times" is the English translation of an old Chinese curse that seems to apply to the current era we're all in. The world is experiencing numerous disruptions since the turn of the century-environmental degradation, climate change, emergence of corrupt regimes, corporate scandals and exposés, social injustice, exploitation of indigenous people and migrant workers, and the 2019 novel coronavirus pandemic. The last one put a halt on all tourism activities in the early part of 2020, allowing stakeholders to reflect, recalibrate their business continuity plans and strategies, and accelerate applications of artificial intelligence in their business models. Teaching ethics in tourism has become even more challenging with the proliferation of disinformation in social media and the unconventional role models young people tend to look up to these days. This book is intended to help both teachers and learners review their moral compass through diverse situations encountered in the workplace wherein ethical dilemmas arise. The cohesive topics allow the future tourism professionals and workers chart their careers using assessment and planning tools that would enable them to identify their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges. The interactive end-of-the-chapter activities and exercises provide flexibility in the choice of teaching and learning styles as well as harnessing internet technology and research skills of students. In this vulnerable, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous world, this book will advocate professional education, development, and ethics of talents in all the sectors of the tourism industry. In order to survive, eventually excel, and remain relevant in this competitive industry, one must continue to sharpen the saw. As Charles Darwin espoused in his Theory of Natural Selection, "It is neither the strongest nor the most intelligent of the species that survive but the ones most responsive to change."--Preface
