OVERVIEW
Accountability can be difficult to find in the workplace, but it is one of the most important characteristics of high-performing teams and employees. In contrast, a lack of accountability can prevent businesses and individuals from reaching their full potential.
As a manager, it’s up to you to make sure your team knows what they are supposed to do and that they have what they need to get the job done. So, you might think that being accountable means you’re the one who gets blamed when things go wrong. In fact, accountability is about helping people to take responsibility for their obligations.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
Whether you’re a first-time manager or a seasoned manager, holding people accountable can be frustrating and bring out the worst of emotions. If you’re like most managers, you’ve tried courteous reminders and polite conversations. And while that works with many people, the truth is, it only takes one person to hold up the project and make life miserable for you and everyone else!
