Accountability: Getting a Grip on Results

I'm sold on this book and the use of accountability agreements. It's an easy-to-read guide on why accountability is important and how to implement an organization-wide system with successful employee involvement. They have put together some great examples, a wonderful guide to writing accountability agreements, and suggestions for implementing a higher degree of accountability within an organization.

This new book, Accountability: Getting a Grip on Results, presents a new, modern face to some age-old organizational problems: How are personal responsibilities carved out of a complex organizational mission? How are these individual responsibilities aligned for effective action? How are individuals held accountable for outcomes - with no excuses? How does one ensure nothing 'falls between the cracks?' If you want answers to these questions, read Accountability. Full of practical examples, this book is a welcome addition to a manager's working toolkit. Recommended.
