One of the most common complaints we hear from supervisors and managers is that people who work for them won't take responsibility for going the extra mile and doing what is necessary to get their jobs done right.
“It’s “It’s not my fault.” “It’s not my job.” “I didn’t know.”
Excuses. We’ve heard them all. Wouldn’t you love to have all your employees see what needs to be done, do what needs to be done and accept responsibility for the results? Unfortunately, such is often not the case. In this webinar, organizational culture expert Larry Johnson offers you practical strategies to raise the odds everyone on your team behaves responsibly every time.
Larry approaches the issue of accountability from three perspectives
- Creating a POSITIVE environment where everyone WANTS to do their very best. Research has shown that when employees are happy, they are more likely to behave accountably
- Clarifying expectations so everyone knows what represents success. Research has also shown that when managers complain about employees not behaving accountably, the cause can often be traced to the failure to adequately communicate expectations around accountability. Larry will share his Accountability Pyramid Model as a way for managers to make sure that what they expect is clearly communicated
- Turning around those who insist on not taking responsibility. Managers often allow unaccountable behavior to continue until it becomes a habit. Larry will share his Conversational Roadmap to help managers turn this trend around
