Accountability should be ingrained in team culture from "summary" of The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick M. Lencioni
In a healthy team, accountability is not just a buzzword or a superficial value that is talked about but rarely practiced. Instead, it is a fundamental aspect of the team's culture, deeply ingrained in the way team members interact and work together. When accountability is ingrained in team culture, team members hold themselves and each other responsible for their actions, decisions, and performance. This means that team members are not just focused on their individual goals and responsibilities, but also on how their actions impact the team as a whole. They understand that their success is tied to the success of the team, and vice versa. As a result, they are willing to take ownership of their mistakes, learn from them, and work together to find solutions and improve. In a team where accountability is ingrained in the culture, team members are not afraid to hold each other accountable. They are comfortable giving and receiving feedback, and they understand that constructive criticism is necessary for growth and improvement. This culture of accountability creates a sense of trust among team members, as they know that they can rely on each other to follow through on commitments and deliver results. When accountability is ingrained in team culture, team members are more likely to be engaged and motivated. They feel a sense of pride in their work and a responsibility to their team, which drives them to perform at their best. This sense of accountability also helps to prevent conflicts and misunderstandings, as team members are clear about their expectations and responsibilities.- Accountability should not be seen as an individual trait, but as a collective value that defines how a team operates. When accountability is ingrained in team culture, it becomes a powerful force that drives the team towards success and helps them overcome any obstacles or challenges that come their way.
