Meet high-tech consultancy The Member Company. And meet The Racing Stable, its members. These highly qualified engineers are fascinated by their projects, determined to give their utmost to the clients they’re working for, and eager to get the best out of themselves. TMC calls them employeneurs, since they are both employees and entrepreneurs.

In the past twenty-five years, TMC has developed a business model based on five principles: business cells, individual profit sharing, a long-term relationship, a YOUniversity (training & coaching), and an Entrepreneurial Lab. With these tools, TMC’s employeneurs can develop themselves both professionally and personally.

Using a localized internationalization strategy, and recently also through acquisitions, TMC has expanded to sixteen countries on four continents. It is driven by a staunch belief in progress and human potential, and has a non-hierarchical, entrepreneurial management culture. Its most fundamental characteristic, however, is its adaptability and resilience, which has enabled it to thrive, even across three crises.

Marcel Metze (1952) is a well-known Dutch historian and corporate biographer. He authored books about – among others – Philips Electronics, the Dutch banking sector and Royal Dutch Shell. In 2020, TMC invited him to write the first edition of The Racing Stable. In it, he described the company’s first two decades, based on candid interviews, colorful reports and crucial documents. In this second, revised edition he adds the company’s extraordinary expansion in the years 2020-2025.
