Parenting Means Responsibility and Accountability
Saturday, September 13th, 2008Parenting is one of the greatest responsibilities one can be given. Actions you take and things you say to your children can haunt you and affect them for a lifetime.
I am sorry to say I have been guilty of saying things that I wish I could take back on occasion, but once the round is fired down range it is gone and there is no bringing it back.
It’s A Great Day…to Whoop Somebody’s Ass!
Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008Accountability…yea that very, very dirty word in today’s vocabulary. Accountable for one’s own actions, how absurd that concept is. In fact asking someone in today’s society to be accountable for their actions is such a major paradigm shift that you would think it was asking for a nuclear holocaust to come.
At the top of the accountability ladder is leadership. A leader is accountable for everything his people do or fail to do PERIOD. Don’t blame it on your programmer, your supply chain or your installer. As a manager or leader you are responsible for your actions as well as the behavior and performance of your employees (on the job of course).
