Leadership
Accountability
“It’s not my fault!” This is a mantra heard
across corporate American on a daily basis. The practice of
finger-pointing and complaining is increasing at an alarming
rate. The result: lower productivity and profits. This “blame
game” epidemic can be stopped. It’s up to you as a leader to
take action by holding people (including yourself) accountable
for their actions. Greater accountability and ownership at all
levels lead to higher productivity and better organizational
results.
In this session participants will learn
how to create a culture of personal accountability at every
level of the organization, starting at the top.
