#GSD TALK: Building a Culture of Accountability

Situation

If your team isn't achieving the outcomes you believe are necessary, and you think it's your responsibility to "hold them accountable," you're the problem! It's you!

Improving your team's accountability isn't a real outcome, and it's not something you can force on anyone. What you really want is for your team to attain the outcomes you believe your organization needs to thrive.

Our entire concept of accountability begins at the breakdown. When one of your team members fails to deliver the required outcome, it's time to put on your leadership pants and "hold them accountable." But where were your leadership pants before the breakdown? We have the concept of accountability backward. It starts with the leader. Leaders are there to empower their team members to be accountable for the commitments they make. If your team members are regularly told what and how to do things, leadership is the problem... It's you!

You can't help someone stay accountable to a commitment they didn't make. Period.

If you're still reading, it's because your team members aren't delivering the outcomes you believe are necessary. You have two choices: continue doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result, or... Learn how to "Build a Culture of Accountability."
