We often say trust is one person's assessment of another person's competence, sincerity, and reliability. Accountability is a related concept to trust, but it’s also an inside job. Being accountable means being ready to show up for the work that’s in front of us and be a contributor to the fulfillment of the goal of the whole. In this Wisdom for Work, Coaches Ali Schultz and Virginia Bauman illustrate why the key to accountability is healthy channels of communication and cultures of trust. They make important distinctions between leader-led and self-led accountability and share why one method is often more impactful than the other. They discuss how leaders can model accountability to the rest of their team, and share why the highest-performing groups are often the ones that develop a mutual self-accountability muscle.
