Session E: Outward Mindset: Don’t Hold People Accountable, Develop Accountable People

Speaker: Laura Dwinnell

Senior Consultant – Arbinger Institute

Don’t Hold People Accountable – Develop Accountable People

The leadership skill executives most often say they wish their leaders possessed is the skill of holding people accountable. But, if we were to hold people accountable, then our people are not being accountable. The actual most important leadership skill is the skill of developing accountable people. Specifically, participants will learn:

1. The major problem underlying our efforts to hold people accountable.

2. The required conditions for developing self-accountable people.

3. A simple but powerful self-accountability model that can be applied immediately.

Traditional performance evaluations focus on capabilities and effort, however, to be fully accountable, we must answer for our impact. In this session, we will explore how to measure our impact—and how mindset affects our efforts to improve impact.
