Nesta disserta����o procura-se demonstrar que os conceitos de empresas vision��rias, de Collins e Porras (2000), e de empresas mission��rias, de Mintzberg (2001), podem ser aplicados para entender o comportamento do Hotel Dall���Onder. Foi aplicada a metodologia do estudo explorat��rio de caso ��nico, por ser um caso revelador e por representar um teste local de uma teoria significativa. A coleta de informa����es em v��rios documentos publicados pela imprensa, em livros, artigos e reportagens, al��m do que se p��de obter nas entrevistas de profundidade com pessoas representativas do empresariado, com micro-empres��rios, com colaboradores da empresa e com seus acionistas e diretores, representaram, neste, trabalho ���provas testemunhais���, n��o sendo, assim, necess��ria qualquer an��lise estat��stica qualitativa ou quantitativa. A hist��ria da coloniza����o italiana no Rio Grande do Sul aportou elementos para o melhor entendimento da forma����o da cultura do ���colono���. O meio ambiente, embora adverso, facilitou a ���acumula����o primitiva��� e for��ou a procura de novos mercados. Foram analisados a miss��o, a ideologia e o comportamento hist��rico e presente do Hotel Dall���Onder, suas semelhan��as e diferen��as com os conceitos de Mintzberg (2001) e Collins e Porras (2000) e sua ader��ncia a princ��pios ��ticos e de respeito social e ambiental, considerando a sua inser����o nos projetos administrados pela Atuaserra e pelo projeto que ele pr��prio criou: Caminhos de Pedra. As conclus��es s��o de que o Hotel Dall���Onder supera as exig��ncias de Collins e Porras (op. cit.) e Mintzberg (op. cit.), podendo ser classificada como uma empresa vision��rio e mission��ria plus, pois adota os princ��pios ��ticos de Abela (op. cit) e res peita o meio ambiente, na linha do Sistema de Produto Inteligente de Blue e outros. Al��m disso, aplicou intuitivamente as bases te��ricas do marketing social como instrumento de transforma����o social, visando a melhoria de vida das pessoas envolvidas, e a implanta����o de um novo modo de agir, criando o turismo cultural, apoiado na arquitetura, na gastronomia, na vitivinicultura, na agroind��stria caseira, nos costumes e nas idiossincrasias, sem utilizar nenhum mecanismo de propaganda, difus��o ou uso de m��dia paga. Por isso se prop��e sua qualifica����o como empresa sociot��lica, ou seja, voltada para uma miss��o externa a si pr��pria e de profundo cunho social. Apresenta diferenciais enormes: a distribui����o de 10% do faturamento bruto, todos os meses, para todos os colaboradores; o est��mulo ao surgimento de concorrentes em seu pr��prio ramo de neg��cios; o investimento, o apoio e a cria����o de atrativos tur��sticos sem mercado cativo e o investimento maci��o no desenvolvimento do turismo regional, mesmo em preju��zo dos investimentos que lhe dariam maior escala e melhor condi����o competitiva, e isso por acreditar na m��xima em dialeto v��neto dos colonos: Quanto pi baletere, tanto pi tordi (Quanto mais frutas, mais p��ssaros).

A busca da solu����o ideal entre os fen��menos naturais para conforto na habita����o de um modo geral e na hotelaria de lazer de forma especifica, constitui um desafio para profissionais e propriet��rios desse tipo de edifica����es. As vari��veis e condicionantes da regi��o de localiza����o do pr��dio e o dom��nio no assunto, tem levado alguns profissionais da ��rea a acreditar que podem alterar o espa��o em que o homem vive modificando o comportamento do meio (Enarch, 1983). Estudos espec��ficos na ��rea de conforto ambiental mostram, que a utiliza����o correta dos meios em uso na aplica����o da energia dispon��vel e que a correta implanta����o da obra no sitio podem reduzir consideravelmente o consumo energ��tico, proporcionando o necess��rio conforto e bem estar ao usu��rio.O Estudo que aqui �� apresentado se prop��s de forma sucinta, a tra��ar um r��pido panorama da historia da hotelaria de lazer, desde tempos antigos, com o inicio das primeiras jornadas romanas, at�� os dias de hoje, procurando identificar quais os crit��rios adotados para aproveitamento de ilumina����o e ventila����o natural na arquitetura de hot��is de lazer Na seq����ncia situou-se a hist��ria da hotelaria de lazer no Brasil. No terceiro capitulo foram abordados, alguns exemplos significativos da arquitetura brasileira na d��cada de 50, que influenciaram a primeira manifesta����o da arquitetura de hotel voltado ao bem estar, no Paran��. No quarto capitulo �� apresentada a primeira e discreta participa����o do exemplo paranaense, com a ado����o de alguns aspectos, no que se refere ao aproveitamento natural da ilumina����o e ventila����o natural.O estudo de caso, finalmente buscou encontrar tra��os referenciais, do hotel tomado como objeto da pesquisa, procurando identificar, os crit��rios adotados quando presentes, para redu����o de consumo de energia e para conforto ambiental na hotelaria de lazer apresentada.

���A Narratological Analysis of D. M. Thomas���s The White Hotel (1981)��� originated within a seminar on British Postmodernist Literature during the first Master���s Degree in ���British and North-American Culture and Literature��� (2001-04) at the Universidade da Madeira set up by the Department of English and German Studies. This dissertation seeks to present a narratological analysis of Thomas���s novel. The White Hotel stands as a paradigmatic example of the kind of literature that has dominated the British literary scene in the past three decades, commonly referred to as postmodernist fiction, owing to its formal craftsmanship (multiplicity of narrative voices and perspectives, mixing of differing genres and text types, inclusion of embedded narratives) alongside the handling of what are deemed as postmodernist topoi (the distinction between truth and lies, history and fantasy, fact and fiction, the questioning of the nature of aesthetic representation, the role the author and the reader hold in the narrative process, the instability of the linguistic sign, the notion of originality and the moral responsibility the author has towards his/her work), The narratological approach carried out in this research reveals that Thomas���s text constitutes an aesthetic endeavour to challenge the teleological drive that is inherent in any narrative, i. e., the inevitable progression towards a reassuring end. Hence, the subversion of narrative telling, which is a recurrent feature in Thomas���s remaining literary output, mirrors the contemporary distrust in totalising, hierarchised and allencompassing narratives. In its handling of historical events, namely of the Holocaust, The White Hotel invites us to reassess the most profound beliefs we were taught to take for granted: progress, reality and truth. In their place the novel proposes a more flexible conception of both the world and art, especially of literary fiction. In other terms, the world appears as a brutal chaotic place the subject is forced to adjust to. Accordingly, the literary work is deemed hybrid, fragmented and open. So as to put forth the above-mentioned issues, this research work is structured in three main chapters. The initial chapter ��� ���What is Postmodernism?��� ��� advances a scrutiny not only of the seminal but also of more recent studies on postmodernist literary criticism. Following this, in Chapter II ��� ���Postmodernist British Fiction��� ��� a brief overview of postmodernist British fiction is carried out, focusing on the fictional works that, in my opinion, are fundamental for the periodising of British postmodernism. In addition, I felt the need to include a section ��� ���D. M. Thomas as a Postmodernist Novelist��� ��� in which the author���s remaining literary output is briefly examined. Finally, Chapter III ��� ���A Narratological Analysis of The White Hotel��� ��� proposes a narratological analysis of the novel according to the particular Genettian analytical model. To conclude, my dissertation constitutes an approach to D. M. Thomas���s The White Hotel as a text whose very existence is substantiated in the foregrounding of the contingency of all discourses, meeting the postmodernist precepts of openness and subversion of any narrative that claims to be true, globalising and all-inclusive.

This study examines the relationship of the types of organizational culture perceived in a business hotel with the nature of the link between individual and organization. This linkage between commitment and organizational culture has been little explored, both national and international, requiring more studies. Thus, the survey was conducted in Soleil Suite Hotel, located on the beach of Ponta Negra, city of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte. The independent variable of the proposed model was represented by the types of organizational culture, while the dependent variable was represented by the four dimensions of commitment. It was used in addition to the correspondence analysis, the arithmetic mean, the Pearson s correlation and the simple regression analysis. The results indicated the existence of relationship of the types of organizational culture with the kind of commitment shown by the officials, where the cultures of Group and Innovative, capable of generating an environment dedicated to the work as a team, the development and professional growth of the employees, as well as the creativity and individual freedom of each one to try new things, encourage the dominance of the dimensions Affective, Affiliative and Normative of the tie person-organization

This Masters degree dissertation presents a research that aims at analyzing the activities regarding within a hotel managers work in Natal/RN - Brazil, This Masters degree dissertation presents the research that aims at analyzing the activities regarding the hotel managers work in Natal / RN - Brazil, performing diagnosis of their activities and relating the aspects that impact the quality and productivity of hotel services and managers occupational health. This research is characterized as a case study with a qualitative approach, taking the method of Ergonomic Work Analysis which is the analysis of the managers work activity as a reference to the focus; and combining the use of observational and interactional methods. Ergonomics and macroergonomics are used in this study not only to understand the physical, cognitive and organizational constraints of the manager s duties, but also to characterize the work organizational architecture and design of that hotel. High workload, accumulation of tasks and diversion of functions performed by managers were noticed, increasing thereby the physical and psychological suffering for them. It was found that the activity of managers is characterized by the ambivalence of power, limited autonomy, cooperation, interdependence between managers and the fear of incompetence. It was also noticed that managers devote more time to the day job (37%), another time to sleep (30%), while only 33% of the rest of the day are meant for activities like taking care of health, family, social life and study. Although there are few studies addressing the health and safety of hotel managers, this research revealed that 84% of the surveyed hotel managers complain of musculoskeletal pain which 50% are obese and are 100% sedentary. It was also observed that managers adopt unsuitable postures for carrying out the work activities that contribute to becoming injured or work-related musculoskeletal disorders in the near future. Ergonomic measures were recommended as an investment in the skills and the training of managers, encouraging cooperative work, appropriateness of workload, limiting overtime, preserving the enjoyment of breaks during work and weekly holidays, changing the layout of the work sector , usage of communication technology to prevent displacement, compensatory physical activities, furniture adaptation, among others

The pressure for a new pattern of sustainable development began to require of modern organizations the conciliation between competitiveness and a environmental protection. In this sense, a tool that acts in the implementation of structured strategies is the Environmental Management System (EMS), which focuses on improving environmental performance. This improvement, in turn, can generate to the organizations many benefits , among which, obtaining competitive advantages, susceptible of measurement from different perspectives. One of these is the application of VRIO model, reasoned by the Resource-Based View (RBV), which considers that differences between companies occurs due to differences between its internal resources and capabilities. However, although was been found some studies in the literature that evaluate the competitive potential of certain organizations , such assessments are not performed on specific objects, like the SEM s. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the resources and capabilities (environmental strategies) adopted by the SGA of the Verdegreen Hotel, identifying which of these have the potential to generate competitive advantage. For this, this exploratory-descriptive character study and delineated as field research and case study was used as data collection tools: a literature survey, semi-structured interviews, document research and participant observation. The interpretation of results and consolidation of information were conducted from a qualitative approach, using two techniques of data analysis, namely: content analysis and analysis through VRIO model. The results show that the hotel is quite structured in relation to their EMS, as well as reaching related to improving the management of environmental factors, strengthening the image and gains in competitiveness benefits. On the other hand, the main difficulties for the implementation of the system are related to employees and suppliers. With regard to environmental strategies adopted, of the 25 strategies identified, 10 showed the potential to generate competitive advantage
