Accountability is a loaded word. In many employee’s minds it’s a word loaded with connotations of authority, discipline and rigidity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s one of those words where folks can use it and think they’re all on the same page, and yet in reality they’re doing wildly different things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, accountability is holding someone to a standard behavior or performance. I think we all agree on that, but where we often get a little confused and unsure of  ourselves is when we try to enforce this thing called accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let me share with you what I’ve seen over the years when it comes to accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Effective accountability is an art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s an artful proactive effort where accountability becomes a living, breathing, personal expression of connection and communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s the art of offering crystal clarity with compassion without thinking it’s our job to change them knowing that the way forward is for them to change themselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s the art of offering a person grace at the time when a goal is lost, and it has come to a parting of the ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And most of all, it’s the art of not delaying when we sense struggle in others with their employment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And we need to be accountable to ourselves so when an employee has a ways to go to meet standards we will be with them with a steady effort and open heart. If they’re willing to make the climb, we’re willing to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accountability is an art we master over time. It’s personal growth within ourselves to become a safeguard to our valuable co-ops and to show the way of how we as managers and employees make it work together.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
