Personal responsibility beats job accountability every time.
When individuals opt-in, engage, and own their own actions and consequences, truth happens fast! You don't need to focus on "driving accountability" when people are owning how they execute.
Climbing in the same boat together drives mutual coordination.
A keen sense of shared responsibility is the single greatest predictor of teamwork, collaboration, and partnering.
Tapping into the power of peer motivation.
Teams perform to the level of their least invested members because those members bring everyone else down. Always.
Making and keeping agreements that support flow.
Agile masters ask for, make, and keep responsible agreements with everyone around them.
