the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.

Accountability

People of good character don’t mind accountability; that is,

the act of allowing others to have a say in your life, to speak to you straight about your life and conduct.

In fact, they welcome it.?



The brutal truth is that we have blind spots and need other people to be close to us so we can advance down the road of success.


The need for accountability doesn’t prove lack of character.

Rather, it proves the presence of character.

The person of good character knows this and invites others to speak into their life.


Followers grow tired of leaders who will have nothing to do with accountability.


They don’t mind leaders who make mistakes, but

they do mind leaders who don’t? take responsibility for their mistakes?by being accountable.


When we allow ourselves?to be held accountable,

our followers know that we are serious about keeping our own house in order,

and we will do a good job in leading the rest of the organization.

?

When people don’t exercise self-control to be held accountable, they sabotage their ability to lead.

People lose respect for them and will follow less, if at all.


Self-control is the ability to choose to do the things we should, and to refrain from doing the things we shouldn’t.


When we exhibit accountability in self-control,? we again build trust in our followers.

They respect us and want to follow us.

It takes a higher level of thinking to listen to criticism with no emotion. Assessing the situation as it is and reflect upon whether there is a need for correction. Either way, when we leave our ego in check, there is so much we can learn. Dr Timothy Low ,PBM, Top Hospital Sales Voice in Singapore
