What are the Challenges of Implementing Accountability?
Despite its importance, implementing accountability can be challenging:
Resistance to change: Employees may resist changes that introduce new levels of accountability, fearing increased scrutiny and pressure. Lack of clarity: Without clear guidelines and expectations, employees may be unsure about what they are accountable for, leading to confusion and reduced performance. Inadequate feedback: Without regular and constructive feedback, employees may not understand how to improve, undermining the effectiveness of accountability measures. Inconsistent enforcement: If accountability is not enforced consistently across the organization, it can lead to perceptions of unfairness and decreased morale.
