Highly Accountable Teams

The first characteristic of a highly accountable team is the ability to set a clear direction, in other words, the ability to clearly define and communicate the results the team wants to achieve. Both accountability and culture change begin with well-defined results. In fact, it makes little sense to initiate any accountability or culture change process without first clearly identifying the results (outcomes) you want and need to deliver.

Highly accountable teams never initiate culture change efforts without clearly defining the Key Results that must guide the desired change. Why? Because the most compelling reason to work on your organization’s accountability or culture is to produce greater results. Remember, your culture produces your results, and your level of accountability determines the pace and effectiveness of your culture change.
