Shapers, Makers, Builders and Breakers
Welcome to Shapers, the podcast where we dive into the minds of visionaries, creators, strategists and rebels who are proactively making positive changes in the world. Our journey started with Riël Mallan’s project, Shapers, Makers, Builders and Breakers and now continues with the sleeker title, Shapers.
Why “Shapers”?
Our name reflects our mission and purpose. We celebrate individuals who are driving positive change in various aspects of society. We’re here to uncover the stories behind the people who are shaping the world and leaving a significant impact.
Here at Shapers, we take pride in our unique classification system, which remains at the core of what we do. Our podcast features thought-provoking interviews with leaders from diverse backgrounds. These leaders fall into four categories:
Shapers
These are the dreamers and innovators, the visionaries with deep philosophical insights.
Makers
The creators who turn abstract ideas into tangible beauty that we can all appreciate.
Builders
Breakers
The outspoken rebels, alternative thinkers, and activists who challenge the status quo.
