personalaccountability
it requires a fully charged battery
you’re powerless when flat
and powerful when fully charged
your battery has positive and negative states
+-
and 11 levels of charge
-5 +5
your battery is drained or charged by your attitude
so the attitude you choose is crucial
a negative attitude drains your battery, leaving you powerless
-
a positive attitude charges your battery, making you powerful
+
it’s your "accountability battery"
this is how it works
It has a negative, powerless scale from -5 to -1
to help you stay mindful of when you’re not being accountable
it has a neutral state
where you reflect, accept reality, and choose your attitude
and positive, powerful steps from +1 to +5
to guide you to achievement of your goal
let’s look at the negative, powerless scale
being unconcerned or unaware
…“I don’t know, or I don’t care about that KPI”accountable people are aware, and do care
-5
denying or avoiding
…“I don’t think it’s happening, or someone else will do it” accountable people acknowledge what’s happening, and do something about it
-4
blaming others
…“It’s their fault, not mine”blaming requires you to find fault in others, blame
culture is contagious
-3
using excuses
…“I didn’t see that report”accountable people don’t lessen, rationalise or
justify with excuses
-2
waiting and hoping
…“let’s wait, and hope the KPIs get better”accountable people don’t wait or hope, they act
towards an outcome
-1
let’s charge your battery
..”KPI results aren’t good, I’m determined to improve them” accepting reality and choosing a positive attitude is the first step to a fully
charged battery.

…“I haven’t been using weekly reports to drive KPIs”owning your part in a situation or problem, will lead you to a solution
own your part in it

…“I’ll dedicated time each week to review reports, identify concerns, and book meetings with relevant people to discuss. After 2 months I’ll review the impact”
SMART goals are simple, measurable, attainable, result focused, and time bound
create a SMART goal
+2
…“I’m actually going to read the reports and drive actions”an internal decision differs from an external decision (telling others), as
this is about making an authentic commitment to yourself
make an internal decision to achieve it
+3
…“I’ll read the reports every Monday 10-11am, during which I’ll send meeting invites to the people I need to speak with“.
considering options, and creating a plan is easy once you’ve set a SMART goal and made an internal decision to achieve it
consider options and create your plan

you’re at your most positive and powerful when acting on your plan
act on your plan
