Overview:

Are you tired of hearing:

• "It’s not my fault."
• "It’s not my job."
• "I didn’t know I was supposed to do that."
• "The shipment was delayed."
• "The printer ran out of ink."

Excuses like these kill productivity, damage morale, and shift responsibility away from where it belongs. According to a recent HRDive study, 82% of managers admit they struggle to hold others accountable, while 91% believe that improving accountability is a top leadership development priority. Does this sound familiar?

• Some employees take initiative while others ignore problems.
• Some own their mistakes, while others constantly blame others.
• Some grow and improve, while others stay stagnant.
• Some are grateful team players, while others act entitled.
• You sometimes feel more like a babysitter than a leader.
