Matthijs van de Peppel, marketing director for B2C at NRC Media, and I first met during a meeting at the NRC offices in Amsterdam in 2014. That meeting was the beginning of a long collaboration leading to many significant events for both companies.
Van de Peppel and I were co-authors with Xavier van Leeuwe of How to Succeed in the Relationship Economy, published in 2017 in English and later in Dutch and German.
Van de Peppel and van Leeuwe recently published a second book discussing their approach to management called The Human Touch in English and Mensenwerk in Dutch.
NRC recently exceeded its prior record number of subscribers and now has the most subscribers in the history of the publication.
Van de Peppel agreed to speak with me for this blog post to reflect on the journey to this milestone and to share his view on the significant causes of the growth. He also describes the subject of the new book.
