Overview

This interactive workshop gives leaders the tools to evaluate and drive a culture of accountability within their teams. This includes techniques to create a culture in which employees confidently accept accountability for taking initiative, recommending solutions, and making decisions that deliver excellence in all areas of the business.This creates alignment of activities and mindset from the front line to the executive suite.

In the workshop we explore why the victim mindset is so difficult to eliminate and so costly in personal and professional terms. The workshop uses the Ladder of Accountability, SMART goals, and the language of accountability to enable leaders to model, reinforce, and coach appropriate behaviors.
