Are we, as leaders, truly doing what we can to drive accountability on our teams? Join us for an experiential workshop where we explore what goes into creating and sustaining teams filled with empowered, accountable individuals. Do you know your critical few, the things that absolutely must get done this year for your team and organization to be successful?  Have you meaningfully communicated that and your related expectations to your employees more than once or twice? Are you measuring progress, celebrating wins, and managing breakdowns in follow-through? This workshop is designed to equip leaders with the tools needed to set expectations, drive accountability, and inspire their teams to achieve outstanding results.

Participants will:

• Explore the concept of accountability and its impact on personal and team performance
• Get clear on what your team truly needs to achieve and where their focus should be
• Dig into techniques for setting clear, achievable, and measurable expectations
• Gain practical insights into holding individuals accountable for their responsibilities
• Discover effective monitoring strategies to ensure progress and identify areas for improvement
• Discuss techniques for providing constructive feedback and addressing performance gaps
• Address common barriers to accountability and discover strategies to overcome them
