In this episode, I chat to Mark Sellier. Mark has been Head of International Trade for One Steel, Founder and President of GMN and has chaired different divisions in the BIR.

In this episode we discuss:

- If you beat everyone up, you'll have no one to play with.
- Why only your friends can tell you that you smell.
- How to become a preferred supplier.
- How to average out your material.
- Dealing with small margins.
- And plenty more...

WHO IS STU KAGAN ANYWAYS?

25 years in the metal recycling game and still learning and growing…

I learnt from the best and worked my way up from yard labourer to Executive Director of Trading and Operati ons for the largest metal recycler in sub-Saharan Africa. Responsible for 4,500 employees, 85 sites, and the overall profitability of a multi-billion dollar operation.

Brought my breadth and depth of knowledge to bear and co-founded the fastest growing, most-loved, and most awarded metal recycling company in New Zealand. No small feat in a country where people are outnumbered 4:1 by sheep (spoiler alert: sheep don’t produce much metal waste). 

Father of two crazy-awesome boys. Husband to Lisa. Under 8 rugby coach. YPO member. Lifelong learner. Mentee. Mentor. Chief dog walker. Committed Stoic. Undefeated dance-off champion.
