Quick 7-Step Plan for More Positive Leadership Accountability
The lack of accountability in many areas is still growing rapidly, especially where we have no control. So, the reality is that we must take responsibility for those areas where we do have control and influence.
Here���s a brief summary of the seven-step plan:
Character, Courage, and Commitment. Accountability needs to be built into the organization���s culture, and it starts with the leader���s personal example. Character is step one of being accountable and cannot be sustained without courage and commitment.Clarify. Communicate and over-communicate to clarify expectations. First is the established and unchanging core values, purpose and boundaries of your organization, and then both the big picture goals for your organization and the specific expectations for them to do their job.Connect. Great cultures of accountability also need caring leaders, who connect with the hearts of their people. The more cared about a human being is the more valuable they feel and the more effort they are going to put into their work to achieve their commitments and responsibilities. Connect also means to connect the person���s work with their talents. Some folks are good at carrying out specific details and some are good at operating in a very fluid manner. Some work best alone and some work best by connecting with other people.Collaborate. Working only vertically limits our performance. The more that a group of managers and supervisors collaborate as a team, the more successful they and their people will be. Collaboration was crucial for the Vietnam POWs and why it���s so important for leaders to develop a collaborative mindset.Closeout. As your team achieves success, it���s important to Celebrate. Remember���celebrating varies for different personalities. Discuss how best to celebrate your team and who should coordinate it. The opposite side of the coin if someone has not been responsible in doing their clarified duty, then you must Confront them. Followups could vary from more training to shifting to another job.
Accountability is crucial to success in every organization. Remember, to be successful as a leader it all starts with you, and you must build a culture of Courageous Accountability.
