The sampling object of the questionnaire is the employees of 5-star hotels in the north, central, and south of Taiwan who are willing to answer the questionnaires. Purposive sampling is employed. In total, 900 surveys were disseminated throughout Taiwan., including 300 each in the north, central, and south. Out of these, 657 acceptable surveys were collected, resulting in a 73% response rate. The research findings show that: (1) learning positively affect service performance; (2) vitality positively affect service performance; (3) LMX negatively moderates the influence of learning on service performance; (4) LMX negatively moderates the influence of vitality on service performance. At last, the paper proposes managerial implications and subsequent recommendations derived from the research findings. • leader-member exchange = LMX. • Hotel employees' learning has a positive influence on their service performance. • Hotel employees' vitality has a positive influence on their service performance. • LMX moderates the influence of hotel employees' learning on service performance. • LMX moderates the influence of hotel employees' vitality on service performance.
