In a small, laid-back tourist community like Boracay Island, a handful of establishments are run with a leadership style that is both participative and collaborative.
Usually reflected in boutique hotels,, most employees are encouraged to participate and contribute toward the growth and satisfaction of their work organization,. In turn, their guests sense these employees’ motivation and pleasure to execute their roles and render genuine hospitality on a daily basis, emitting the vibe that guests would want to return to again and again.
One such establishment that implements this is Villa Caemilla Beach Boutique Hotel under the leadership of Wesley van der Voort.
However gifted with regenerative charm, heartwarming smile and cute boy-next-door looks, Wesley van der Voort certainly has more than meets the eye. If he is not seen standing behind the reception counter, one would think that he is a mere guest in the resort.
But, when one experiences the world class service and award-winning amenities of Villa Caemilla, and discovers that Wesley is the brainchild of the resort, one would want to know how he has been able to keep a loyal team of staff for over 10 years, garner international accolades for the resort for three consecutive years, run two successful hospitality establishments, actively participate in community organizations, participate in sports events, and still maintain a fresh, vigorous, youthful and radiant persona.
Could this be because of his European upbringing, his education in school or his genuine drive to be the best version of himself at any given situation.
Given our constant curiosity and fascination for leaders in hospitality, we in Discovering Hospitality have found Wesley van der Voort as one whose charismatic personality and leadership qualities reckon to inspire and deliver tips and insights to our readers in the industry.
