5 Keys that Boost Accountability

By: Deborah Shane

Here are 5 keys that can boost professional accountability:
  1. Professional Habits Follow a daily schedule, time block, prioritize, organize, and delegate. Practice discipline.
  2. Following a Process Have a plan for your intentions, goals and direction and be persistently patient with how it unfolds.
  3. Flawless Execution Be consistent with how you execute your daily process and activities. Be flexible and willing to tweak things as they arise.
  4. Consistent Evaluation Always be reviewing, surveying and getting feedback. Conduct focus groups with your own customers and follow trends.
  5. Practice, Practice, Practice Do all of the things you need to do and are good at that not only come natural for you, but also the things that you dislike, don’t always want to deal with, and don’t come as naturally to you! Practice, rehearse and repeat what makes you effective and gets results.
Being a great free throw shooter in basketball takes a willingness to shoot hundreds of free throws daily. Practicing the motion and roll off the hand over and over again is what sinks winning shots in the clutch.

Suit up, show up and speak up ready, willing and able to do your best every day and you set yourself up for the best to happen.
