Keeping People Accountable at Work Training

Keeping People Accountable At Work Training courses should ideally be ran annually. Here’s why:

When you run the Keeping People Accountable workshop, you’ll figure out lots of tasks that people are wriggling away from. You’ll identify some of the games your people are playing, to avoid doing specific tasks.

Over the next year, you’ll find that some of your people have concocted new ways to avoid the same tasks. So then you find more solutions to stop them avoiding tasks. It is cat and mouse tactics, but you’ll find you have some people who are very cunning at pretending tasks get done.

    Course Description

    Do some of your people wriggle away from doing tasks? A chain is only as strong as the weakest link and if the weakest link doesn't want to pull their weight it can seriously impact productivity. Workplace behavioural studies concur that some people deliberately misunderstand instructions to avoid completing tasks. You might know the occasional maestro that misunderstands any instruction.

    Faced with this situation, it's easy to take the path of least resistance. Don't request from the maestro any tasks and use the rest of the team to fill in. Or take away all excuses for not completing the tasks. Keep everyone accountable and eliminate the wriggle room. Of course, some reports and peers will still not do what's instructed. But that will now become a performance management issue rather than a "Oh is that what you meant" misinterpretation.

    It's also important to explore if your instructions are really clear. Your instructions may be as clear as crystal in your mind and clear as mud at the other end. In this breakthrough course you'll learn to give instruction and deadlines that cannot be wriggled out of.

    Is this course for you? Answer Yes or No to the following questions:

    • Do more than 5% of your instructions not get carried out?
    • Do you miss deadlines more than 10% of the time?
    • Do you hear counter arguments that people didn't understand the instructions?
    • Have you noticed dysfunction in the team?
    • Do you hear heated arguments and inappropriate remarks?
    • Do you have a blame culture when things go wrong?
    • Do you feel that people simply won't follow instructions?

    If you've answered Yes to 2 or more of these questions this course is ideal for you.
