A free webinar on shifting to a culture of personal accountability that empowers and encourages your workforce.
Rethinking Accountability
When we use phrases like "holding” people accountable, we make accountability an external driver that carries a sense of blame, punishment, and negativity. This approach fails to create an environment where people are internally motivated to “take” accountability for their work. This 60-minute webinar will explore a new way of thinking about accountability that empowers and encourages people to focus on the most important results and ensure the right work is being done.

What You'll Learn
Historically, language around accountability has focused on “holding others accountable”. We hold people accountable because job performance and results depend on people doing what they’re supposed to do. However, this focus can be more harmful than helpful because it:
- Carries negative connotations like blame and punishment.
- Puts the focus of accountability outside of the individual.
- Makes accountability more reactive than proactive.
When we shift the focus of accountability to the person and create a culture where “taking” accountability is embraced, we see:
- People at all levels take ownership of the strategic results of the organization.
- Balls do not get dropped and critical projects do not slip through the cracks.
- People think differently about the essential job that needs to get done.
- People break down barriers and collaborate to achieve the right results.
Join us for an eye-opening conversation with Nathan Leaman, Managing Director at Frontline Training Solutions, about transforming accountability into something that is proactive, positive, and taps into the natural desire each of us has to accomplish important things. This free webinar will introduce a version of accountability that empowers and enables individuals to take ownership of the results they need to achieve. Participants will receive the “Journey to Accountability” job aid to assist them in creating a culture where people hold themselves accountable for the results of the entire organization.
This webinar was broadcast live from the Frontline Training Solutions Studio in Grand Rapids, MI, and qualifies for 1 free re-certification credit through HRCI/SHRM and HRPA CPD.
