is lost by companies

who lose formerly loyalcustomers because of

that results in

substandard to poorcustomer- service

customer- service

experiences that "turn

off" the customer.

What is accountability?

39/46

Accountability is:"Doing the right thingconsistently, day in andday out, in tasks andrelationshipinteractions to fullfil orfurther the mission of

the organization."

40/46

Accountability is a

systemic issue and must

be understood in terms

of a systems approach ifit is to really work in any

group, family or

organization.


41/46

It is a system of individuals, linked in a chain ofmutuality, taking personal and group responsibility toachieve something meaningful -- the mission of the

family, organization or entity.

We can call this the "Chain of Accountability."Why a chain? Because, like a chain, youraccountability is only as strong as the weakest link inyour system.

42/46

For example, if the sales department of a company isoperating at 100% accountability but the

shipping department is only at 20%accountability, then the sales department is pulleddown in the eyes of customers as only 20 percentaccountable.


43/46

A great example of this

"chain of accountability"

comes from an officer in

Naval Search and Rescue,

whose mission statementis...

44/46

When you are on that chopper, trained,prepared and 100 percent accountable to pickup someone who is "down," your ability to

rescue is only as good as the mechanic whoserviced the rotors or the loader who gave youthe right ammunition or the person who checkedyour lifting winch.

45/46

The linkage of each

person taking maximum

accountability in order tofulfill the mission is vital.

One break in that human chain and not only will

the mission not be realized, but lives will be

lost."
