I will always hire that first and foremost over a skill set. I'll openly say, we're trying to create something here more than just production factory, where we're turning out houses day in day out and developing land day in day out. You're trying to create something special. That all starts from the top, and if you don't have the people who are operating the company working within those same kind of boundaries, those values and creating that culture, then you're going to fail. You're just going to end up with the McDonald's version of housing.Munir Haque: [00:00:41] Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of The Boardroom 180 Podcast.

Guest: Shane Wenzel of Shane Homes on what needs to be done to get more homes built in Alberta

Today's podcast:   Did Israel attack Iran Thursday in retaliation for Iran's missile and drone strike against Israel. Israel is not saying and Iran claims drones launched from within its borders were shot down, thereby setting aside a requirement for the shooting by the two principal regional opponents to continue. Perhaps.  Guest: Israel's Ambassador to Canada, Iddo Moed.   In this week's federal budget the commitment by the Liberals and Justin Trudeau was made to build 4 million homes by 2031. Is that even remotely possible?  Guest: Shane Wenzel. President/CEO of Shane Homes in Calgary. Shared with us last year that home buyers who had placed down payments on new homes were so financially stressed they were walking away from their under construction homes and willing to forfeit their deposits which Shane Wenzel was refunding his stressed buyers.   Frontline Canadian doctors are fed up with being forced by government bureaucrats/bureaucracy into turning more money over to government (witness capital gains change in 2024 fed budget). Doctors letter writing campaign begins, led by our guest. Guest: Dr. David Edward-Ooi Poon. Family physician, Public Health and Preventative Medicine physician. Founder, Professional Corporation Advocates. Beginning letter-writing campaign by MDs.  We talk Stanley Cup playoffs which begin tonight, leading to the opening game of the Stanley Cup final series on June 3. There is increased hope that a Canada-based NHL team will hoist the Stanley Cup. That has not happened since 1993, when the Montreal Canadiens, led by their Captain Guy Carbonneau won the final series against the Los Angeles Kings 4 games to 1, after having eliminated the New York Islanders, Buffalo Sabres and Quebec Nordiques, winning 16 games and losing only 3.   Guest:  Guy Carbonneau. Captain. Montreal Canadiens, 1993. --------------------------------------------- Host/Content Producer – Roy Green Technical/Podcast Producer – Tom Craig If you enjoyed the podcast, tell a friend!

Cory celebrates the removal of mask mandates on American airlines while calling for people to pressure governments to end all mandates.  Former owner of the Danbury Trashers and subject of Netflix documentary "Untold: Crime and Penalties" AJ Galante comes on the show to discuss his latest initiative called Ice Wars which will hold its maiden event in Edmonton on May 21 Shane Wenzel of Shane Homes talks about supporting Jason Kenney and then goes into a broader discussion of housing affordability challenges in Canada. 

If you were to look at Calgary 30 years ago it would certainly look very different from Calgary as we know it today. That's when this week's guest on Your Neck of the Woods Shane Wenzel became involved with the company named after him by his father and began helping build our communities. Jason, Shane, and I chat about his early years at Shane Homes moving from drawing and comic books to working on job sites always with a strong work ethic instilled by his parents. Back then building lots for homes could be 40 feet wide or more.Such is obviously not the case these days, so much of our conversation centres around what city building looks like now as opposed to what they looked like in the past. A common thread then and is bureaucratic and ideological stubbornness from city planners, of course, this bumps into the pressures of a housing market that demands both customizability and affordability. An excellent example of this was the debate around the Guidebook For Great Communities (now the Guide for Local Area Planning). We discuss the importance of complete, connected communities balanced with clear communication and what the market is telling you.Contrary to the narratives we sometimes hear our guest says that we're not seeing a move away from single-family homes but rather they're becoming more popular. This is both a result of increased diversity popularizing multi-generational homes and the widespread adoption of work from home thanks to the pandemic. Speaking of the pandemic, once again it shapes our conversation as we talk about the changing face of cities if we continue to work from home and no longer need to be as close to the office and can be in a more comfortable space but also the rise of digital media and what we're currently binging.If the face of our city is fundamentally changing it'll also mean downtown will need to be more of an entertainment hub so once again we agree that it's time to put ideology aside and work collaboratively, time will tell if this is what we get. This was a refreshing, honest look into where our city is, where it's going, and how your neck of the woods gets built along with one of the people whose hard work and dedication make it happen!Follow Shane on social media @ShaneWenzel and follow Shane Homes @ShaneHomesBe part of the conversation by following myself and Your Neck of the Woods @JMcGregoryyc on social media and use the hashtag #YNotW

Today I'm sitting down with Shane Wenzel; the President of Shane Homes - one of the largest and most recognized home builders in Calgary, Canada. Following in his father's footsteps, Shane joined the family business which seemed only natural since it was named after him. He started off in sales and quickly worked his way up the ranks, becoming the President of the company in 2010.  Since then, Shane has been instrumental in creating a high profile brand, using various digital platforms to connect with his audience on a more personal level. I invited Shane to be a guest on my show to learn how a home builder goes to market to become an award-winning brand. I also wanted to discuss the impact covid is having on the home building industry, and I wanted to get his POV on what new homes will look like in the post-covid world.
