Module 5: The New Accountability

Additional Resources

Warning: This TEDx talk may not be the most comfortable to watch, but there are gems embedded throughout the talk: The distinctions between calling someone out for their behavior, calling them in and calling on them can be really useful. Also, her discussion on how the brain’s threat response can engage when you require someone to take responsibility for their behavior.is worth noting..

Overall, she’s talking about accountability in the context  of taking responsibility for having done harm rather than the context of performance standards in the workplace so she’s looking at accountability through a different lens.

Of note: At about 16 minutes in, this speaker connects brain resilience and accountability.
