With the Ramaphosa government digging in its heels over black empowerment rules amid increasing pressure to abolish regulations that have advantaged a small percentage of black business leaders in South Africa, Gary Bannatyne, Managing Director of Shaper, has challenged some of the negative perceptions surrounding Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE). Bannatyne highlights the transformative potential of B-BBEE if it is not merely a box-ticking exercise in uplifting unemployed youth, boldly stating, "Not all BEE is bad." He describes Shaper's fit for the workplace programme as a process where they “panel beat” young individuals to make them work-ready. He notes the overwhelming talent entering the market from universities, with sometimes 3,000 applicants for just 10 positions, many of whom have heartbreaking stories. To upskill these young graduates and matriculants, B-BBEE can serve as a "cheat code"—if executed correctly, he says, "it is almost like gaming the system."
Reporting live from Brazil, part-time cohost and WSL commentator Mitchell Salazar rejoins Dave on The Lineup to break down all the action, drama, and implications from the 2025 VIVO Rio Pro presented by Corona Cero. California's Cole Houshmand and Australia's Molly Picklum claimed breakthrough victories at Stop No. 9 of the 2025 Championship Tour, but the event was anything but predictable. Dave and Mitch dive deep into the biggest Winners and Losers from Saquarema–from Griffin Colapinto's title surge to Filipe Toledo's late-season stumble, and from the brilliance of Molly Picklum to the heartbreak for Brazilian fans hoping for a hometown champion. They break down the complexity of forecasting the wave, the challenges of Saquarema backwash, and the mental game of adapting on the fly. They check in on the Vissla CT Shaper Rankings, where Matt Biolos and …Lost Surfboards have all but cemented a three-peat as Shaper of the Year after a dominant Rio showing. The duo also answer Fantasy League and Instagram questions from fans around the world, including whether the women's surfing is officially more exciting than the men's, and drop hints about the final stretch of the CT season leading into J-Bay and beyond.

From Persian blue salt to Murray River pink salt and every colour in between, sodium chloride has been essential for millennia. The Great Wall of China was funded by a salt tax and hunger for this mineral has led to revolutions in India and France. Salt is so versatile, it can melt ice on roads, clean wounds and repel slugs from your home. Chefs tell us to season generously with salt and our bodies also need this staple to function. But health experts say we're eating way too much of it. How do we get that balance right? In this episode, Lee Tran Lam talks to salt-maker Alice Laing, restaurateurs Dylan Jones and Tomoya Kawasaki, and health director Peter Breadon.

This solo episode of Sonitotum with Matthew Wayne Selznick is also a Scribtotum article, because it’s all about big things, big changes for the podcast, and big questions writers, authors, and all creators must ask themselves now and then. Mainly: Are you doing what really matters in your creative life? This episode was recorded on September 13, 2024. What follows is adapted and condensed from the transcript. Time and Money I’ve been doing a lot of thinking, assessing, researching and reading and thinking and researching some to get a good handle on the state of me… and that’s led me to some decisions. For episode 106 of my podcast, Sonitotum with Matthew Wayne Selznick, I was toying the addressing the challenges of time and money for most authors, indie or traditional. Usually, services are available where expertise and time are lacking… but those services, while (usually) fairly priced by service providers (like myself), are often outside of the budget of many authors. I quickly remembered that’s a universal not restricted to the creative space: when it comes to things that make your life easier or bring you closer to your goals, you can either pay with time, or with money. Thinking about it dovetailed with, and was soon overtaken by, how much thought I’d been giving to another aspect of time: how much we have left. Consideration given to time is relative to where you are in your life. When we’re young, there’s more time and less money, generally. As we get older, ideally, there’s more money… but without question, rich or poor, there is less time. A Mostly Arbitrary Calculation of Time Every time I turn around, someone I know, or a creator that I respect — and sometimes that’s the same person — has died. I’m 57 years old this year. I have, based on actuarial data, maybe thirty years left on this planet if I’m lucky. There’s no telling how much of that time will be spent in good mental and physical health. I have some clues. My maternal line, for which I have the most information, tends toward longevity (into their late seventies and early eighties) despite chronic illnesses. Me? I have some arthritis in my hands. I have hypertension, which I’ve tried and failed to reverse with lifestyle changes; I’ll have to resort to medicine soon. I have never smoked. I’m a healthy weight. All told, I’m in pretty good health, so if my direct ancestors lived as long as they did under a mountain of medical issues, it’s not unreasonable to assume I’ll make it at least into my eighties. Stil, that time goes quickly. Especially the end time, because the older you get, even in the best of circumstances, the less you can do. The clock is ticking. A Very Systematic Calculation of Money Financially, I’m in about as bad a state as I’ve been since my twenties, although the reasons aren’t the same as they were in the late eighties and into the nineties. Back then, it was to do with minimum wage jobs, poor choices, and living a “rock and roll” lifestyle (don’t get too excited; that pretty much just means sacrificing stability and wealth for attempts at art). Thanks to some medical issues (everyone is on the mend) and client contraction, 2024 has been rough, and most of my attention, most of my energy, most of my effort, has been dedicated to treading water as I circle the drain, leaving very little time and energy for creative work. Energy Crisis Still, the drive to do creative work persists, but there’s a dearth of energy, both at the beginning of the day (no sleep!) and the end (worked too hard!), from which to draw. You see, there’s one other thing that’s been going on this year. We’ve got an elderly cat who is relatively healthy except for some thyroid issues for which we have a pill… but Biggie is getting senile. He often wakes up scared, confused, and hungry in the middle of the night, yowling at the top of his lungs. A four AM feeding will calm him down, but he needs his food put right in front of his face and won’t eat unless a human sits there with him. The result? All year, I’ve been running a sleep deficit that’s more and more dangerous the longer it goes on. That’s the situation, and while one way or another it’s not going to be permanent, it’s not going to end anytime soon. Faced with that, I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about how I should dedicate my very limited time and, especially, energy. The One Thing The one thing I really want, and need, is to have the time and energy and opportunity for the deep focus intrinsic to creative work. By which I mean: To be able to focus, uninterrupted, on long thoughts. For me, creating fiction requires that. Long stretches of time for what the author and professor Cal Newport calls “deep work.” I read Newport’s Deep Work recently, leading me to quip on Threads that the experience was like being a fish flopping around in the desert watching a television with a picture of the ocean playing on it. So many things in that book described what I wanted; needed. Perfect situations; best possible circumstances… while knowing I’m in no position to reach them. Similarly, I read Atomic Habits by James Clear, which is full of evidence and science and research-based information and practices on positive habit formation with the goal of focusing more and accomplishing more. You could read those two books back-to-back; they complement each other well. In both books, I saw a version of myself that I had been. A version of myself I have been aspiring to, and for various reasons of environment and circumstance I have not been able to reacquire. This has been, for me, a terrible year for new fiction. I did write and release the novelette “Reggie vs. Kaiju Storm Dragon Squidbat,” and it’s funny, sometimes I forget I accomplished that. But I have not made much progress on Shadow of the Outsider, my next novel. That second book of the Outsider trilogy, which is part of the larger Shaper’s World storyworld… that’s my main thing right now, or it should be. The Energy / Focus / Creativity Equation But fiction is hard. Fiction requires, for me, good long stretches of uninterrupted focus. Focus requires energy. Uninterrupted time to focus requires opportunity. And opportunity has a literal cost. The time I spend working on fiction is deducted from time, and energy from billable client hours I know will contribute to paying the bills. The Podcasting Problem Sonitotum with Matthew Wayne Selznick takes considerable time and energy, if comparably little money. The interview episodes take especially long. The raw recording takes an hour and a half speaking to the guest, plus another ten to twenty minutes on the rest of the recording. It takes another 16 hours, give or take, to edit and produce the episode, and then edit and refine the transcript, research and write the show notes, create the thumbnail and feature image, edit and render the video version, upload that video, create the YouTube version, upload the audio edition, and get it all out there in the world. For solo episodes, it could be a lot less because I don’t have to edit two different people and balance their voices and make it all sound as good as possible. Recently, I found the very idea of working on the podcast exhausts me just thinking about it… which makes me not want to do it… which of course delays it. Even the most recent solo episode. I kept thinking about it, and then finally, late, I carved out the time to do it. Carving the time has to coincide with opportunity, as well. I’m very rarely alone in the house, and when I’m not, it’s very difficult to get uninterrupted, undisturbed time to do something like stand in front of a microphone for 45 minutes or so. I keep putting off doing the work required to publish a new episode of Sonitotum. And here’s the other thing about allocating that time, finding that time, allocating that time, sacrificing other things for that time: I like having the podcast as a venue through which to speak to you. And! I’ve realized it is not the best use of my time, or even very healthy for me. Maintaining the commitment to put out an episode of Sonitotum every two weeks, especially considering every other episode is a highly labor-intensive interview episode, is literally more work than it’s worth. Which is to write: The show has less than four dozen subscribers. Closer to three dozen subscribers. That’s a tiny, tiny audience. I’m grateful for those rarefied few, especially the patron members of our Multiversalist community. I’m grateful for the people who are listening. But, given all the things I want to do, all the things that have long-term and short-term value for me in terms of emotional gratification, creative gratification, and yes, financial gratification… the podcast does not register. It’s not a blip on that particular radar. That’s just a fact. It’s been a challenge to face the reality it’s not worth the commitment. I love the thirty-odd subscribers and other listeners, but my sense of obligation is it is misaligned with the value of the show. Editing, producing, and managing podcasts is one of services I offer. It’s hard for me to not think I should be drinking the Kool-Aid I make. Finally, October 15th, 2024 is the 20th anniversary of my very first podcast episode. Shouldn’t I have a consistent podcast to celebrate when that date comes around? I thought so. Most of this year I’ve been brainstorming how I might observe that anniversary. But as the months passed, and common sense and reality became more evident and spoke louder than my sense of obligation… I realized I really don’t care about the anniversary. Sure, it’s a feather in my cap. It’s certainly given me cause to reflect. Observing the anniversary as something that’s actually important or that matters now, beyond the creative and professional bragging rights? It is not worth the time that it would take from other creative endeavors I feel much stronger about. The Podcasting Solution Things that are, at least for now, out of my control, are not going anywhere or changing any time soon. I’m in a maintain ground, not gain ground, state. So, I need to make changes and adjustments to reflect what my life is like now, and to honor what I want to do with my life and what I want my life to mean over the next 30 years. I don’t want the burden of misaligned obligation, or to feel guilty when I don’t meet that obligation, I currently associate with Sonitotum with Matthew Wayne Selznick. That said, it doesn’t mean I’m no longer doing Sonitotum. What it does mean is I can’t, and I won’t, commit to a particular schedule or promise anything having to do with Sonitotum. This is a hard decision, but I am making it for the good of my own creative, and mental, and emotional, and physical health. It’s been a few days since I recorded that decision, in episode 106. At the time, I felt my chest tighten and my stomach go sideways… a time-and-distance-separated version of codependence I have with my listeners and patron members. That’s not real. Doing What Matters My obligations are to myself, and they include staying healthy and sane, which, in turn, includes making things that truly make me happy, which means taking the ideas and the stories inside of me and getting them out of me before I die. That’s my responsibility, and not just to myself. I believe every writer has a responsibility to get our stories out there so that they add value to the culture. They don’t mean anything if they’re not available to experience. There’s no opportunity for them to change lives in some small way or some large way if they don’t get written and published. I’m not writing and publishing often enough or fast enough. All I want to do is communicate with you in the way that is the most fulfilling and the most appropriate at the time. Maybe it’s a story, or an article. Maybe it’s a video, a podcast episode; maybe it’s a streaming experience. Nothing is stopping me from doing any of those things. The trouble comes when I feel as if I must do one of those things. One Thing That Still Nags at Me One thing that still troubles me is how my Multiversalist member patrons will take this decision. Patron members pledge at $5.00 per month, or more, to support my creative endeavors and be part of the Multiversalists community of readers, creators, friends, and fans. They pay that pledge, in part, to receive uncut, unedited editions of this podcast. That’s not going to happen as often, so I accept that some of them might go away. As for future patrons, there’s one less reason for new people to pledge. I wonder if I’m shooting myself in the foot. Then I remember so long as I make good use of the mental, physical, emotional, and creative energy, and time and opportunity, that would have gone into making an episode of Sonitotum every two weeks… so long as I’m dedicated to something creative that eventually gets released into the world… well, patron members are still helping to support the same mission. The Effort / Resources / Results Algorithm There’s only so much time, and there’s only so much energy, and so long as we live in a capitalist society with no universal basic income and healthcare that is maybe less expensive than it once was for some of us, but still not free, and all of the obligations of the real world pull at us, we have to change the things we can in order to do the things we must. One of the things I must do is make things. I believe we’re doing ourselves, and others, a disservice if we put disproportional energy into creative efforts that will have less impact and effect than others. I put way too much time into the Sonitotum with Matthew Wayne Selznick podcast relative to the value it has to the world and the value it has for me. I recommend we all, periodically, rerun that personal life algorithm. Make sure your output still matches what you truly want. Make sure what you’re doing and where you’re putting your energy, serves who you want to be, not who you were, or who you think you’re supposed to be. I Have Questions… and Suggestions What are you doing because you think you’re supposed to, or out of some sense of obligation? What are the things in your life that don’t serve you anymore, that aren’t serving anyone, relative to the effort you’re investing? Now: weigh that against the things you’re not giving as much time, energy, and opportunity that would serve you more, whether emotionally or physically or mentally or financially or, ideally, all of the above. Where are your priorities? Are they appropriate for now? These are the questions I’ve been asking myself. I’d love to hear about your own process of assessment. When was the last time you took a good, hard look at whether you’re doing things because you think you should and not because it’s good for you? Maybe you’re going through that now. What do you think about all this? Please scroll down and leave a comment, with my thanks. Meanwhile… If you’re subscribed to Sonitotum with Matthew Wayne Selznick, I recommend you stay. Or, if you’re not, I recommend you do. You can find the show anywhere you get your podcasts. I can’t say when the next episode will be, but there will be another episode, and another one after that, and another one after that. As always, the goal will be to share my experiences in my creative life with the aim of providing value to you, so that my experiences, my handwringing(!), might inform you, and educate you, and help you in your own creative endeavors. That’s not going to change. Thanks to the Patron Members of the Multiversalists Community Thank you to Zoe Kohen-Ley, thank you to J.C.

Postscript: I was listening to episode 160 of the Write Now podcast, and it really kind of put me over the edge to committing to this decision. In it, host Sarah Werner describes how she was supposed to have a regular podcast schedule, and that she had done like one episode in all of 2024. It caused her to assess why that is. A lot of it was so in sync with what I’ve been thinking about and dealing with, so I want to thank Sarah for being vulnerable and transparent about her decision. It certainly made me feel a little less alone and a little less insecure in the validity of my own decision. This content is by Matthew Wayne Selznick and came from his website.
People come in all shapes and sizes. Bodies take different form. Standing out in the sun, enjoying the light, feeling the warmth, can physically change the shape of your body into something completely unrecognizable to you. In this episode, we explore the shape of things, how they control us, and how form comports to our deepest desires.

I've known Bret Marumoto since we were little kids. When most of us were thinking of college, Bret had a vision for taking his passion for making surfboards to the “proving ground” in Hawaii. Twelve days after we graduated high school, he moved to the North Shore of Oahu… and he has never looked back. For the last thirty years, Bret has been making boards for some of the best surfers in the world; who are also some of his closest friends and peers. Bret tells the story of how he took a passion, became a master craftsman, and has become one of the best in the business.
This Episodes Questions: Brians Questions: I am a hobbyist that wants to start making more polished pieces but am stuck making most of my furniture out of Douglas Fir or cedar. While these are fine options, I want to get into other species like walnut, ash, etc. but am usually priced out when buying one or two boards. I feel like people buy in bulk or something to make the savings work. Could you offer some guidance on purchasing wood that isn't the normal big box stuff at a fair price? Thx! Ian Hi,I'm currently working on a cable railing for my stairs and have been laminating four 1-inch boards together to create 3⅝" x 3⅝" x 48" posts. However, I've encountered challenges achieving the final squared dimensions. My contractor's Bosch table saw is not capable to cut 3⅝" in one pass and doesn't provide a clean cut due to some broken teeth on the original carbide blade. Despite extensive searching, I haven't found a solution that doesn't require using a table saw. My current approach involves jointing and squaring two faces on the jointer, then flattening the remaining two faces on the planer. Initially uncertain about this method, I examined the posts and found all edges to be within an acceptable 90-degree tolerance, attributed to the accuracy of my approximately 70-year-old jointer fence.I'm curious why this method isn't more widely discussed. Could it be because most people don't typically work with this thickness, thus making the table saw seem unavoidable? Keep up the great Vafa Guys Questions: I am really enjoying listening to your podcast and, although I have been woodworking for over 50 years, I invariably learn something new from you. An example is your discussion about the proper way to allow for wood movement on an inside shelf. I am currently working on just such a configuration and will now look at bread board ends for the shelf. My question is about the advantages using metric in the wood shop. Canada, where I live, is only partly metric and most of my friends use inches when laying out parts in their shops. I took a course from Garrett Hack some years ago and said he likes to use metric as there are no fractions to deal with and in his view a millimetre (a 25th on an inch) is a good level of accuracy. Do you ever use metric measurement when building your projects? Bob In the midst of reorganizing my shop. My question is about dust collection. I have about 500sqft of 1000sqft garage dedicated to my woodworking projects. Every time I cut something or sand, I coat the bikes, and all the other things stored there. Not focusing on the vacuums, what do you do about cleaning up the air? I am thinking about one of those Grizzly air filters but not sure it will do the trick. Thanks! Ian Huys Questions: Curious to hear your experiences with mentorship. Do you think it's important to have mentors in the shop? (Someone who you can learn from who's also invested in your progress) Grateful to have your podcast and love to hear the different perspectives from the 3 of you. Such a valuable resource for the woodworking community. Ari Hi guys, *Thanks for answering my past questions, I have another multi part one for you. I recently picked up a grizzly 5hp shaper, I know it's probably bigger than I need but I traded a few days work for it so the price was right. My first project I plan to do with it was patern cutting some 3.5 inch thick table legs. I ordered an amana 61295 spiral cutter and followed bearing but after setting it up it quite frankly scares the crap out of me. How would you guys go about holding the work piece? Would you cut from one side to the middle then reverse the machine and cut from the other side to prevent cutting against the grain? I'm new to shapers so any other advice would be helpful. **The other part is I'm looking at a job where I'll probably have to shape a few hundred lineal feet of trim so I'm looking at getting a power feeder as well. I see they range from 1/8 to several hp, how big should I be looking at? I'll mostly see myself using it with smaller shaper bits but that could change as well as possibly setting it up on my table saw when I have to do long miters or lots of rip cuts. I've never used one before and couldn't find much info online, any tips and tricks would be a big help. Thanks, Mike Arntz

Our guest this week is a Surfer, Shaper, Golfer, and all-around epic Human! He was the Newport Beach poster child for Quiksliver who was getting tons of coverage in the magazines and traveling the world at an early age. He started shaping in 1990 and quickly rose to success. Most likely, because he rips so hard and people noticed the board under his feet had his own name, or maybe because Japan's Surf Economy was going bananas, or maybe because he had some of the world's best surfers getting boards from him? I am guessing all three. But, either way, he is a gifted Surfer and Shaper and we congratulate him on almost 35yrs of board-building success.

Australia's very own, Liam O'Brien, joins us on the pod. Liam talks about growing up in Australia and shares his stoke on Snapper returning to the CT in 2025. He reflects on being a young grom, going down to the coast to get pro surfers like Jordy Smith's autograph, and how crazy it is to look back to now competing against the very same surfers he admires. He describes traveling on the tour, the undeniable intimidation factor at waves like Pipe, and how that fear turns into a desire to overcome the challenge. He and Dave discuss his new film with Yago Dora and Matt McGillivrary, El Paraíso, experiencing the culture and waves throughout the country, and how there is really no shortage of waves in El Salvador. Liam chats about his time working with Darren Handley at the DHD warehouse, stickering Mick's boards, and his journey to the CT.

Send us a Text Message.Nostalgia hits hard as Sean Mussett, the one-eyed legend of Australian skateboarding, takes us back to the gritty golden era where the skate scene was as raw as the elbows we scraped. With his tales of vert ramps and punk bands, Sean – our very own Gravel Burns – pairs up with skate historian Jim Turvey to lace up the narrative with rich skateboarding lore. Their stories span from the iconic "drain" to the Mereweather ramp and beyond, painting a vibrant picture of friendship, rebellion, and a shared passion for skateboarding.We explore the deeper imprints of skate culture on personal growth and societal shifts. Sean's path from a visually impaired kid to an inspirational figure in both the skate and education worlds is a testament to resilience. The conversation takes a dive into the reinvention of school learning amid government lockdowns, how skateboarding blurs the lines between sport, art, and entrepreneurship, and the interplay between generational trauma and progressive shifts in community values. Yes, we go deep, and the topics are stacked. We don't hold back.Wrapping up, we're not just talking about perfecting fakie pop-tarts on vert ramps; it's about embracing the ethos of kindness and positivity Sean embodies. This ride isn't only about the thrill; it's a life lesson in authenticity, the importance of staying true to oneself, and fostering a legacy of improvement for our youngsters. So, hit play and join us on a journey through time, culture, and the life-affirming philosophy of "not being a dick".Enjoy,ShanTHT gets by with a little help from these friends...

In this episode we speak with Dan Thomson from Tomo Surfboards.Dan is arguably the most creative surfboard designer of the last 20 years. The art of surfboard shaping and designing was handed down from his father, Mark Thomson. Dan and his father would discuss all aspects of hydrodynamic theory to improve their understanding of real surfboard design.In the mid 2000's Dan moved to America after a chance encounter that led to him riding a selection of 'fish' boards from some of the industry's best. Around the same time Dan was thinking a lot about the 'Golden Rule' or Fibonacci sequence and how it could be applied it to his surfboard designs. It wasn't long before this way of designing boards made complete sense to him and the idea of what surfboards may look like in the future became clear.The result was a series of boards such as the Vanguard, Deathstar and Vader. Dan's creativity over the next 10-15 years was some of the most prolific in surfboard history. If you look at his various model in his range, nearly every board is unique with its own purpose.When Dan teamed up with Firewire the racks in surf shops seemed to change overnight and looked very different with an array of plan shapes, rockers, concaves and channels. I was really excited to speak with Dan as his unique board designs and creativity is an inspiration to me, as I am sure it is to others.

Many women report not feeling acknowledged or taken seriously and I believe that has discouraged women from branching out and learning more about surfcraft and surf history.In this episode we're going to talk about how learning more about surfcraft can empower and enrich your personal surf journey and how our upcoming events at The Surf Société can give you the information and support you need to feel confident walking into any surf shop or meeting with any shaper to talk about your next surfboard.Support the showConfessions of a Surf Lady is supported by The Surf Société, our unique digital women's surfing platform where we come together to Learn More.

Buckle up for a soul-stirring session as former sponsored skateboarder and current World Skate judge Russell Grundy takes us through a mind-expanding traverse of the skatepark known as life. Russell unveils his own version of that profound connection between the skate life and personal growth. We explore the emotional richness of scaling the peaks of elation on tours with the likes of Billabong and Channel V to finding beauty in the troughs of sorrow. Russell opens up about his early years on the Central Coast of NSW Australia, the thousands of train rides he did back and forth to Newcastle and Sydney as a teenager, USA adventures, competing on the hallowed grounds of the Tampa Am in Florida USA, opening skate shops, leading community initiatives, his approach to parenting, his innate desire to progress, and much more. This isn't your standard skate talk; it's an exploration of Russell's philosophy on staying centered, listening to your heart, and learning from experiences.

In this episode of the Psych in Business podcast, your host, Dr. Ernest Wayde delves into the Belbin Team Role model, a concept developed by psychologist Dr. Meredith Belbin in the 70s to understand team dynamics and enhance team effectiveness.Dr. Belbin identified nine roles crucial for team success: Resource Investigator, Team Worker, Coordinator, Plant, Monitor Evaluator, Specialist, Shaper, Implementer, and Completer Finisher. These roles were derived from factors such as personality, mental ability, experience, role learning, and field constraints. To simplify, these roles fall into three categories: action-centered roles, people-centered roles, and thinking or analytical-centered roles. Dr. Wayde walks us through each category and role, highlighting strengths and challenges.In action-centered roles, Completer Finishers are meticulous but may struggle with delegation. Implementers are disciplined and reliable but resistant to change, while Shapers are dynamic but can be provocative.Moving to people-centered roles, Coordinators are positive leaders but may appear manipulative. Team Workers are cooperative but may seem indecisive. Resource Investigators are optimistic communicators but can lose focus quickly. In the thinking-centered roles, Specialists bring expertise but may lack people skills, and Plants are creative but may struggle with communication.Dr. Wayde also discusses Belbin's six stages of team development, linking specific roles to each stage. He acknowledges criticism of the model but emphasizes its utility in identifying individual preferences within a team.Listeners are encouraged to explore the Belbin Team Role model further to enhance team dynamics and effectiveness. Tune in for a deep dive into understanding team roles and improving collaboration.You can visit his business website at: https://www.waydeconsulting.com/
