CL002: Accountability Vs. Responsiblity
Description
Accountability & Responsibility.
People often use these terms interchangeably; often believing that they mean the same thing.
If you are interested in dipping your foot into the leadership pool, you must understand that there is a subtle but very powerful difference between accountability and responsibility.
As a leader you must understand that you can delegate responsibility to numerous individuals all day long; but only one person can be held accountable.
In this episode of the Courageous Leadership podcast I discuss:
The difference between accountability and responsibility.
You can't call yourself a true leader if you don't understand the difference and if you don't practice it.
Accountability is the true price of leadership; it's what separates you from being just a good "manager".
Accountability requires moral courage.
