What is Accountability?
Accountability at the workplace refers to taking responsibility for a task. In an organization, accountability is delegated across all the departments to ensure goals are timely achieved. Furthermore, this also provides a clear direction toward the goals and allows everyone to focus on their roles. The best way to promote accountability in the organization is by implementing the OKR framework.
