In this episode, Tyler Christiansen, Funnel CEO, sits down with Jason Terry from Redstone Residential, and a standout speaker from last year’s Funnel Forum panel on centralization.

Jason brings a rare mix of operational insight and higher-ed heart. He talks about leadership, leasing velocity, and why building centralized teams starts with empathy, not just efficiency. His approach reflects a mindset we value deeply at Funnel: being prosocial. His spirit of shared responsibility and team-first thinking is the through line of Redstone’s model—and this conversation.

• What late-night leasing, tour guides, and lockout calls reveal about team structure
• The limits of AI—and where it can really help
• Career advice that’s simple, powerful, and wildly underrated
