Despite the increasing number of women working in the tourism sector in the service sector, discrimination is seen in tourism businesses as the main problem in organizations. The purpose of this study is to show the influence of career barriers encountered by middle and senior women managers in hotel enterprises on career development strategies. For this purpose, a model has been proposed to determine the effect of career barriers of female managers in hotel operations on career development strategies.
