Trainers Have More Accountability for Performance

Accountability is intricately linked to results, at the end of the day. A business or an organization which has a positive accountability model in place is clearly result oriented and has transparently defined roles for everyone. This ensures smooth functioning of all departments and wings of an organization and leads to stellar results. Door Training and Consultancy has an accountability training module that seems admirably comprehensive with a promise of consistent and assured results. It takes into accounts the limitations and challenges faced by businesses and seeks to address each one, which reflects in its accountability training program.

The Essence of Accountability

Accountability instills a sense of responsibility in employees, which enables them to take their roles seriously with a certain degree of integrity. Therefore, accountability training is deemed necessary in almost all businesses, whether small or big. Accountability has results at the core, those which have to be achieved despite any failures, losses or distractions. The task is to get up and running, and reaching the finish line as per the plan.

Some may argue that accountability is more of an attitude that cannot be mandated. However, once it becomes a habit, these categorizations do not even matter. What matters is the result. The difficulty lies in fostering this sense of responsibility or accountability in a positive manner in the team. This is where accountability training enters the fray.

Accountability training – Need of the Hour

The aim of most of the accountability training programs happens to be putting responsible business behavior into profit with an aim of larger good for the individual and the organization. Accountability training enhances a sense of commitment that gets lost in professionals amidst a burden of deadlines and strict goals. The onus of responsibility not only incorporates confidence but also makes the person in question realize the position of power s/he holds. This is linked to the process of delivering positive results with enhanced self satisfaction.

Accountability training is also self empowering. The onus of taking action and risks comes from within to achieve results. It is a break per se, and a welcome one from the vicious cycle of authority. Instead of someone sitting on your head giving orders, it is better to have the motivation come from within. This is a powerful change that accountability generates.

Its always You Vs You:

Accountability training programs also ensure a lot of time saving. This is because it ends the possibility of procrastination, since you are responsible for your own actions. The competition is with your own self, which not only gives the vigor to make optimum use of the inner potential, but also acts as a credible incentive in the form of self praise and self satisfaction. The accountability training program provided by Door Training and Consultancy takes into account all these factors which reflect in their holistic and beneficial program, having garnered a substantial amount of experience over the past years.

Accountability training also puts an end to the blame game, in case only one person is accountable for the action of an entire team. Not only does it designate and distribute work within the team, but also distributes responsibilities and ensures better co-ordination within the members. It fosters the much needed feeling of personal accountability which makes a person accountable for their behavior, actions and choices.

This perhaps explains the growing craze of accountability training in organizations in today’s time.  It is a much needed module that has the potential of adding much to a firm’s growth. No wonder organizations and businesses across the globe are tapping this resource to spread their business wings substantially. Even though the effects of accountability training aren’t visible instantaneously, it surely packs a punch in the long run, one which will give you that much needed edge over your competitors.

Corporate Training: Ladder to Success

The frantic corporate world has caught the fancy of a number of people wanting to take big strides in their professional lives. The avenues of growth and the innumerable perks that accompany the glamorous corporate world seem rather lucrative to a wide class of people, especially the ones who are taking the leap, and are just marking their initiation into this world of immeasurable possibilities and opportunities. 

The corporate world is also notoriously famous for certain strict protocols that need to be maintained at all costs, despite the crazy and nerve wrecking working hours that almost drive people to insanity. It is therefore absolutely imperative to abide by certain norms at all times; these are the norms that dictate terms in the corporate world and have the potential of making or breaking images that in turn lead to success.

Let us have a closer look at some of the components of corporate training that are crucial in navigating your success chart. In fact, a lot of these and many more are incorporated in the training module offered by Door training and consulting.

Their corporate training module is very comprehensive and aims at helping young and established professionals likewise honing their skills and expertise:

1.       Communication Skills:

·         It cannot be overemphasized that communication forms the backbone of any successful corporate training mechanism.

·         The world we inhabit is hugely driven by communication skills. Communication is a huge spectrum encompassing a myriad of activities like verbal and written competencies, writing professional emails, presentation skills, body language, non-verbal signals and even intricacies like speed and fluency and pauses while speaking.

·         A well planned and carved out corporate training program would majorly focus on honing the communication skills of itsemployees.

2.       Sartorial Choices:

·         It is a well established fact that presentability adds charm to one’s overall personality. This cannot be more valuable in the corporate world where people are constantly negotiating, selling and making their point amidst fiery and intense board meetings with professionals from across the board.

·         Therefore, it is mandatory and desirable to be presentable in terms of the clothes you wear. Business formals are preferred in most such meetings and corporate set up because it adds an overall appeal to one’s persona.

3.       Role Specific Training:

·         A holistic corporate training program always makes room to impart different skill sets to people from different departments in a firm.

·         A corporate set up is an eclectic mix of professionals working in distinct categories. It is not fair to group them all in a single training module because of the nature of work involved. The work varies and so should the training. This is simply saying that a person from finance set up should be trained distinctly from a person coming from marketing or sales background. While some of the basic elements are common, the more specific details differ and should be acknowledged and dealt with.

4.       Company specific Knowledge:

·         It might seem absurd but a lot of employees are not completely aware of the policies, procedures and practices of the company.

·         Make it a point to share with your employees all the relevant information in this regard. This should include technical as well as ethical policies. This would mark a good division of the corporate trainingprogram.

These are just some of the many values Door training andconsulting aims to instill in its clients, to not only empower the market leaders, but to optimize the efficiency of the lower level employees as well.

 

True Accountability

Traditional views of accountability 

focus too narrowly on answerability.

Like the foul-tempered Queen of Hearts in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, who, at the slightest offense or misdeed, cries “Off with their heads!” some leaders have become overly obsessed with making their people “answer” for their actions, especially when actions fail to produce the desired results. The old saying “The price of failure is a pound of flesh” is based on a speech made by Shylock in The Merchant of Venice by William Shakespeare. Shylock lends money to the merchant Antonio and sets bond or collateral at a pound of Antonio’s flesh. When Antonio defaults on the loan, Shylock demands his pound of flesh, “The pound of flesh, which I demand of him, is dearly bought; ‘tis mine, and I will have it.”

Forcing people to report, explain, or justify their actions creates an orientation in organizations that accountability is something that happens to you when things go wrong, rather than something you do yourself in an effort to make sure things go right. Typically, when answerability is the focus, accountability becomes an instrument of blame and accusation. In such an environment, taking accountability looks more like a coerced confession than a personal choice to rise above one’s circumstances and claim ownership for achieving the desired results. A coerced confession may ameliorate the situation for a time, but it will rarely bring about a real and lasting change in effort or results. However, true accountability is so much more than a voluntary confession; it is a commitment to solve the problem, find solutions, and prevent problems from occurring in the future. Taking accountability means having a true sense of ownership and investment. It drives a personal desire to want to be answerable, to want to have your name associated with the results, and to be judged by the outcome. Yes, it is essential for people in organizations and society to feel answerable for their actions, but taking accountability means so much more than that.

People who take accountability for results internalize the need for change and embark upon the Steps To Accountability—to See It, Own It, Solve It, Do It. They become self-motivated and highly resourceful, focusing fully on what else they can personally do to achieve the desired results. They make it a habit to See It, Own It, Solve It, and Do It in everything they do. And they believe that they can and will overcome what­ever obstacles they encounter in their quest to achieve the results they desire.
