You don’t build a mission—you build people, and then people build the mission. But that only works when everyone knows their lane. In this episode of the Reaching for Remarkable Podcast, Brian Taylor sits down with Slingshot CEO and author Tim Foot, along with Matt Wright and Toni McEwan, to explore the fourth key signature of a remarkable team: Roles. They unpack why job descriptions aren’t enough, how to give every seat a clear “win,” and the three traps that quietly erode healthy teams—the echo chamber, the comfort hire, and the shiny object. You’ll also hear why chasing the “purple unicorn” candidate backfires, and how a one-line job description can bring clarity to your whole staff. Whether you lead a church or a nonprofit, this conversation will help you align your people, strengthen your culture, and keep your mission moving forward.
