How To Make Structural & Staffing Changes - Episode 467 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
People issues, especially people changes , can be incredibly divisive in a church. Suddenly, a staff member people love is no longer on the platform, and nobody's really sure why. Church leaders have had months to process the change, but the congregation and staff have to catch up in one conversation or announcement. And they rarely sit in that gap of information neutrally … they fill it with a story that's not about the decision but about the church itself. We're wrapping up Too Big to Run on R
Are the Right People in the Right Seats? - Episode 466 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You've got a structure on paper. You have clean reporting lanes, ownership and a healthy span of care. But the boxes that make up each role are still empty. How do you determine who goes in which seat? How do you know if someone has the leadership capacity a role requires? What happens when a role grows past the person in it?

Who Owns What? - Episode 465 (opens the original)
Read excerpt

A church feels the organiz
Are we Overstaffed or Understaffed? - Episode 464 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If your church is over 1,000 in attendance, you're just too big to run on relationships . At some point, the way you've always led stops scaling—not because relationships don't matter (they do) but because the ministry is now carrying more complexity than your current structure can support. This is where many churches get stuck—they don't make that transition. And if you don't get intentional about systems, roles and decision-making, you'll keep feeling the same pain: confusion, bottlenecks, bur
Can We Fund & Deliver Multisite? - Episode 463 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As a church getting ready to go multisite, you might know who you are, have the right people and have a clear, documented model. But at some point, going multisite really comes down to this: Can you fund it, and can you deliver it ? Can you actually pay for a new location so that it's sustainable for years to come? Can you re-create the main thing people show up for—the weekend experience? In the final episode of this series, Sean and Jesse break down the last two Multisite Readiness Checkpoints
