A Counteroffensive against Declining Accountability

Mark Twain is remembered for saying, "Everybody talks about the weather, but nobody does anything about it."
For three episodes I have been talking about the erosion of personal accountability in our nation. With this fourth episode in the series, we start doing something about it.
I invite leaders to join a counteroffensive aimed at regaining the ground which accountability has lost. Not a wholesale, frontal assault, mind you. Something more akin to low-key guerilla warfare waged in the leader's sphere of influence.
And our first priority as leaders in this effort is to serve as role models of responsive, responsible accountability. Most of the episode is devoted to showing why modeling the way must be a lead initiative if we are to restore a healthier degree of accountability.
I offer a practical personal exercise which provides a benchmark on how well our current conduct as a leader equips us to be a stellar role model of accountability. It helps us identify where we need to improve our own accountability so that we can serve as a stellar example. I then discuss essentials of using our personal example to maximum effectiveness.
