Accountability check: Take a Look at Yourself1. When I make a mistake, I will admit it.2. I am proactive, and will often take the initiative.3. I ask for the things I need in order to do my job. 4. I welcome feedback however it is given to me.5. I communicate regularly and accurately with colleagues. 6. I stand and deliver when it's time to report on my actions. 7. I model accountability for the people I work with and supervise. 8. If I don't understand something, I will seek out information.9. I take ownership for my own problems and circumstances.10. I analyze my activities and ask, "How is this contributing to business/organizational objectives?" 11. I analyze my activities and ask, "What more can I do or how can I do this better?"12. I readily confront and communicate unaccountable behaviour in others.

Accountability Tools Listen. Question. Invite and offer feedback. Be assertive. Put control back into your life!
