The Theory of Accountability™
This engaging program forces a reconsideration of how we view accountability. As Silverstein explains, “Accountability is not a way of doing. Accountability is a way of thinking about people. Particularly how we think about people.” When individuals and leaders actively create the future they want to live, frame their mindset around abundance rather than fear, and take persistent, relentless action in support of the experience they are generating, their beliefs, and their relationships, they will experience personal and organizational transformation unlike any other.
During this program, participants will learn how to:
- Identify the three mindsets of accountability and how to apply them personally and organizationally
- Create a specific outcome/goal and achieve it every time
- Empower a team to identify priorities, eliminate obstacles, and enhance communication
- Discover and leverage the enormous power of commitments both individually and at all levels of the organization
