Resort Destination Life Cycle - Stages:
Exploration Stage
Involvement
Development
Consoldation
Stagnation
Decline
Rejuvenation
In my terms, you
explore the jungle and be involved in it. To survive longer in that jungle, u need to
develop and
consolidate it. The
stagnation period comes when you have achieved what you wanted.
Decline is when u run out of resources in the jungle. Then u have to
rejuvenate by using other resources.
