What happens when your mission statement no longer fits the company you're building? For Chase Warrington, Head of Operations at Doist, that question wasn’t rhetorical—it was a radical prompt that reshaped their culture. In this candid, live conversation recorded from the lawn of a remote work conference in Austin, Chase and David Rice unpack how purpose gets defined, tested, and redefined in remote-first companies—and why so many organizations still get it wrong.We dig into why aligning your purpose with actual customer needs isn’t just a branding exercise—it’s a cultural imperative. Chase shares how Doist uses radical candor, documented values, and consistent reinforcement to build a culture where purpose isn't wallpaper. It’s a mirror. Whether you’re trying to refresh your mission statement or just make it mean something again, this episode offers a grounded look at how to move from performance to authenticity.Related Links:<ul><li><a href='https://peoplemanagingpeople.com/become-member/'>Join the People Managing People community forum</a></li><li><a href='https://peoplemanagingpeople.com/about/subscribe/'>Subscribe to the newsletter</a> to get our latest articles and podcasts</li><li>Connect with Chase on <a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/chase-warrington/'>LinkedIn</a></li><li>Check out <a href='https://doist.com/'>Doist</a></li></ul><a rel="payment" href="https://peoplemanagingpeople.com/">Support the show</a>
