Embracing Accountability and Focusing on Results

Together we will recognize why teams that commit to decisions and standards of performance do not hesitate to hold one another accountable for adhering to those decisions and standards. Teams that trust one another, engage in conflict, commit to decisions, and hold one another accountable are very likely to set aside their individual needs and agendas and focus almost exclusively on what is best for the team.
