Accountability is the foundation of the relationship between a leader, the team and individual team members. Creating accountability is fundamental and ongoing leadership practice. To hold someone accountable after a failure is to reexamine the accountability relationship and perhaps restructure it. That blame, an ego-defense to fear, anger, or shame, has been equated with accountability is simply evidence of a failure of leadership in organizations. This talk will address what effective accountability looks like and how to create it. It will also discuss why blame arises, from a psychological perspective, and how to manage it. The goal of the talk is to help you go back to your organization and break up accountability and blame for good.
