Employee Accountability Online Course Outline

Employee Accountability

Accountability-promoting organizations are more competitive and profitable. However, creating a community of trust and accountability at all levels of the organization can be challenging.

Session 1: Course Overview

TIME magazine's March 11, 2010 issue included an essay that purported to clarify "why we have entered the post-trust era." Evidently, humanity seems to be living in an era in which people behave poorly and then fail to accept responsibility for their decisions. Given this, it's no surprise that organisations that encourage transparency are more competitive and profitable.

Learning Objectives:

●      Understand what accountability is and what events in history have shaped our view of it.

●      Identify the requirements for personal and corporate accountability.

●      Apply the cycle of accountability and the fundamental elements required to build an accountable organization.

●      Describe what individuals must do to become accountable.

●      Build skills required for accountability, including goal setting, giving and receiving feedback, and delegation.

●      Pinpoint ways to build ownership in your organization.

●      Isolate areas for further self-improvement.

Topics to be discussed include:

●      Pre-Assignment

Session 2: Defining Accountability

People frequently look at a subject and consider what they understand, even though they do not have the complete picture. This session would discuss what transparency entails and how it applies to confidence in today's culture.

What is Accountability?

Defining Accountability

According to the Encarta Dictionary, accountability means being “responsible to someone or something” or being “capable of being explained.” In the corporate world, transparency entails keeping one's promise. It is all about being true to oneself and one's own standards. Accountability is a personal trait. True accountability cannot be compelled; it must be voluntarily undertaken.

Topics to be discussed include:

●      Why the Focus on Accountability?

●      The Results Are In

●      The Era of Distrust

Session 3: Creating an Accountable Organization

One of the objectives of this course is to accept organizational responsibility. This session will teach students about the accountability loop, the components of accountability, and how to take responsibilities.

Ways to Increase Accountability

Power, delegation, confidence, and authority must all be balanced in order to be held accountable. People must be held accountable by increasing their power, reducing restraints on them, delegating to them, trusting them to do the job, and supporting them and providing them with the resources they need to achieve their mission. They will be kept responsible for the outcomes until the job is completed.

Topics to be discussed include:

●      The Accountability Cycle

●      The Building Blocks

●      Case Study

In this lesson, participants can talk about goal building within the sense of accountability, as well as how to use SPIRIT goals to help them get there.

Tips and Tricks

People must know what they will be held accountable for in order to be held accountable. Setting priorities for subordinates and communicating objectives in a formal manner are two ways to do this.

●      Structuring Expectations

●      A Final Note

●      Making Connections

●      Top Ten Ways to Create and Share Ownership

Session 5: Doing Delegation Right

More can be accomplished if an individual delegated properly. This session would include the fundamentals of delegation, and how to track the job that has been delegated.

Understanding Delegation

Defining Delegation

Delegation is commonly described as entrusting power and authority to another serving as their representative. While it might seem to be a little vague, it really catches the essence. Another definition of delegation is getting their job done with the help of others. It is more than about delegating tasks.

Session 6: Offering Feedback

People constantly provide suggestions to others, whether they want to or not. They smile at the grocery store clerk, thank the person who keeps the door for them, and tip restaurant employees who serve their meals well. This session will go over the components of positive and constructive feedback and give you some experience with them.

The Ingredients of Good Feedback

The aim of feedback is to help people improve their success in the future. Even if it does not result in the optimal quality of success, the meeting offers a forum for discussing goals, outcomes, inspiration, and how to achieve. When people perceive negative feedback, they would instinctively attempt to stop it or at least mitigate its negative consequences. However, they must remind people that it can be a valuable tool for personal growth, especially if it includes knowledge about both the problems and potential solutions.

Topics to be discussed include:

●      In Private

●      Balanced

●      Relevant

●      Specific

●      Documented

●      Personal (In the Right Way)

●      Making Connections

Session 7: A Toolbox for Managers

As a person develops their skills as a boss and a workplace leader, they will most likely find an increase in their ability to take responsibilities for items that were previously new or unfamiliar. This session will discuss learning resources that will assist in the development of responsibility of both oneself and others.

Identifying Learning Opportunities

To assist a person in being more responsible, a variety of skills are needed. Accountability is truly a state of mind, and it will necessitate consistent effort on your part.

Topics to be discussed include:

●      Making Connections, Part One

●      Making Connections, Part Two

●      Making Connections, Part Three

●      Making Connections, Part Four

●      A Personal Action Plan
