Thodoris Spiliotis

Welcome to a world where words become useful stories and thinking discovers new dimensions. I am Thodoris Spiliotis and through my writing I seek to inspire and connect with my readers on a journey of discovery and growth.

It’s a great thing to share knowledge and even greater to learn

Education & Training Interests

Born in Athens and with postgraduate studies in London, in Telematics (Msc in Telematics – Middlesex University) and Business Administration (MBA – Kingston University), life in England has shaped my mature approach to work. I started working in environments that instilled in me mentoring, supporting the ideas of young people and business leaders. After years of experience in research and development companies I decided to start my own technology company in 2014 with advanced software applications.

Partnerships & Activities

I actively contribute to innovation by participating as a speaker in major technology, tourism and entrepreneurship conferences (TEDx, Mindspark), but also as a scientific collaborator and lecturer at the Institute of Continuous Education of the General Staff of the National Defence Forces (GNDF). Through my activity as a member of the scientific evaluation committee, as a mentor in the Light hub’s entrepreneurship support structure and in organisations abroad (Advisory Board of the New York Charitable Foundation), I support the development and evolution of new practices. Since 2018, with the foundation of Athonikos Management, I have strengthened my presence in the field of education in universities and companies in Greece and abroad.

My trip to Mount Athos in 2016 was the trigger for the publication of the best-selling books “The Monk who became CEO – 1000 years of Athonian management” and “From Manhattan to Mount Athos”. My writing career and the gradual development of my coaching skills have pushed me to continue to offer and enhance the “Value of Being Useful” to people.

The value of a useful person is to offer and give in an ever-changing world
