A Primer for Ensuring Accountability

"You are either part of the solution or part of the problem." That assertion from Eldridge Cleaver is a perspective that you must impart to each and every employee you supervise. There are many effective ways to get them to see this valuable viewpoint. And that's what you'll learn in this course. As a manager you are on the line when things go wrong. This course is designed to enhance your ability to communicate a philosophy of continuous improvement, what you expect of your staff, and what they must expect of themselves. This is a primer on multiple approaches to performance appraisal. It's much easier to hold people accountable for their work if they know exactly what's expected, and more importantly, why it's expected. Acting on the lessons in this course will pay off in increased employee commitment, not to mention increased profitability. The other major payoff here is the opportunity to do some soul searching. How accountable are you? You'll have the chance to consider your own performance as a manager and practice your own strategic approach for ensuring accountability.
