Today marks the last day of the first half of the calendar year – and for many of you it is the end of fiscal year for your organization. Good, now for the real test – Are Your People Held Accountable for Their Results?

This apparently is a touchy subject for many people in the corporate world and a misunderstood subject for most entrepreneurs. Why is this so?

First, research has shown a total disconnect between the term accountability and results with large corporate run organizations. Seems the major point of concern for corporate managers is being safe and having job security rather than being accountable for actual or real results. (I know that was a bold statement, yet, I have experienced this disconnect on multiple occasions – even having to change a theme of Key Accountability Identifiers for a group of senior level executives who complained about the use of Accountability in the process, which they did not understand. And, you would know the organization I’m referring to – large international firm.) Continue reading ‘Mid Year Review – Are People Held Accountable?’ »

There is a great book out on leadership.  Certainly there are enough leadership books to go around the world several times; but the book, Landing in the Executive Chair, by Linda Henman, relates to F squared, or F2 Leadership.    Dr. Henman refers to the F as meaning both Fair and Firm.  Accountability!

Henman says, “I have found the direct ties between self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, social skill… and business results.”   This is how Emotional Intelligence, or EQ, is defined.

Employee Engagement and Emotional Intelligence are about balancing results with relationships.  As Henman points out, the further up the ladder you travel, the greater the need for understanding both yourself and others.

EQ can be measured and improved!   We have Emotional Intelligence Assessments.  For more information call 1-800-452-4036

What one job do Executive Coaches perform that their clients feel bring them the most value?   Accountability!

Executives and business owners lead very busy lives on many levels.  There are business, social, civic, as well as family responsibilities that keep them constantly on the run.

Doesn’t it seem that some people appear to have more time than others?  Or maybe they just use their time more wisely.  Either way, we all have the same 24 hours in each day, of which, we are only awake and active 18 hours or less.

An Executive Coach will:

• Teach you how to move from inertia to action
• Make sure you have specific, meaningful, and targeted goals
• Ask you about the deadlines and timeframes for these goals
• Hold you accountable for reviewing, revising, and reaching goals
• Teach you how to move from inertia to action to accountability

Let us help get you or your management team focused on winning results.   Let us help you reach and celebrate success!  Call 901-757-4434.
