Goodmorning! With the sun shining brightly and the August newsletter highlighting the latest happenings in and around the castle, I found it the perfect moment to reflect on my first year Kasteel van Ordingen - a Relais & Châteaux hotel. As General Manager of this 5-star Relais & Châteaux hotel, I am reminded of the insightful conversations from Adam Grant's podcast "ReThinking" with Brené Brown Education and Research Group and Simon Sinek. Their discussions on leadership, vulnerability, and the power of rethinking have been very inspiring and relevant to my journey. Every day in this role presents a new challenge, but it’s one that I absolutely love. Over the past year, I’ve had the chance to put these concepts into practice. Brené Brown’s emphasis on vulnerability has highlighted the importance of leading with authenticity and empathy. It’s about showing up, being seen, and embracing the uncertainties that come with leadership. Simon Sinek’s insights on the importance of “why” have also been crucial. By continually revisiting and reinforcing our core mission and values, we’ve managed to stay focused on what truly matters: delivering exceptional experiences for our guests. Adam Grant’s notion of rethinking—challenging our assumptions and being open to new ideas—has served as a guiding principle. It has encouraged us to innovate and adapt, especially in these times of rapid change. As I look back on this year, I am so grateful for the support of our incredible team, the inspiring conversations with the owners of the castle, my family and friends, colleagues from Relais & Châteaux, and other leaders in the hospitality industry or beyond. Here’s to another year of growth, learning, and rethinking what’s possible! #Leadership #Rethinking #Vulnerability #Purpose #Hospitality #Trust #Empathy #Teamwork #KasteelVanOrdingen #OneYearAnniversary
