  • Corfu Photo: MDB Images Corfu Is Considered by Many to Be the Most Beautiful of All the Greek Islands
    Corfu Photo: MDB Images Corfu is considered by many to be the most beautiful of all the Greek islands. It is the greenest of the Ionian Islands and probably also the best known. The island offers a beguiling landscape of wild flowers, cypress trees, olive trees and several seductively sandy beaches. Corfu also has a major vegetable garden which gives the fresh mountain air a pleasant scent. To the south of Corfu town is Moraitika and Messonghi which have beautiful scenery and beaches. However, the west coast of the island is the most attractive as that is the place where you will find some of the prettiest countryside around and it is also here that you will find the small coves with the sandy beaches surrounded by cliffs and trees.

  • I WORK VALUES ACROSS GENERATIONS – a STUDY OF
    WORK VALUES ACROSS GENERATIONS – A STUDY OF THE GREEK HOTEL WORKFORCE Submitted by EMMANOUIL F. PAPAVASILEIOU to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Management Studies November 2013 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis, which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. ..............................…….. i Abstract “There is a problem in the workplace…It is a problem of values, ambitions, views, mind-sets, demographics, and generations in conflict. The workplace you and we inhabit today is awash with the conflicting voices and views of the most age- and value-diverse workforce this country has known since our great-great- grandparents abandoned field and farm for factory and office” (Zemke, Raines & Filipczak, 2000, p. 9). The opening quotation encapsulates the popular belief among management practitioners that substantive and meaningful inter-generational differences exist in work values among the members of current workforce. Despite this practitioner interest and debate, systematic empirical research either to confirm or refute popular claims has, until recently, been lagging.
