Continuous Growth on the Entrepreneurial Journey with Matthijs Welle, Mews


Listen Later

Continuous growth is the foundation of a successful business, which is why Matthijs Welle never misses an opportunity to learn and evolve on his entrepreneurial journey. In this week’s episode, you’ll learn how he and his team are revolutionizing the hotel industry through their remote-friendly, talent-first company Mews! 

About Matthijs Welle:

After completing his studies in hotel management, Matthijs joined Hilton's fast-track management program and has since held numerous roles in operations and commercial departments. In 2013, he left his secure corporate job and joined Mews to revolutionize property management systems, reshaping the future of the hotel industry. Today, he serves as the CEO of Mews Systems, and the company has grown its employee count by nearly 5x under his stewardship.

Episode highlights:

  • As an entrepreneur, you are constantly evolving into different versions of yourself. When this evolution stops, it’s probably time to exit because if you’re not growing, you’ll likely be holding your company back. (05:08)
  • Coaches provide opportunities for learning and growth. They will open your eyes to things you didn’t know you needed to know and help you become a better leader. So, even if you don’t think you need it, go out there and find a coach! (08:08)
  • Don’t underestimate the importance of your board members. They can expand your network, provide financial support, and push you to take your business to the next level. (15:46)
  • By being a remote-friendly company, you open up your talent pool exponentially. If you want to compete in a global market, expand your recruiting horizons and put more emphasis on talent than location. (25:18)


Matthijs’s best advice for entrepreneurs:

“Having a really good board member will really push you as an entrepreneur  to the next level because you have to find answers, and you’ll dig deep to find them.” (16:35)
