WINNER: A SOUNDVIEW EXECUTIVE BEST BUSINESS BOOK
What separates high-performing companies from all the rest?

It's the mindset leaders bring to accountability--one of the biggest challenges business leaders face and also one of the most misunderstood and misapplied concepts.

All backed by data he's collected over the past nine years from more than 8,000 successful executives around the world.

He'll reveal the surprising truth about accountability and provide a set of leadership tools that will transform the way you manage, maintain, and motivate yourself, your team, and, ultimately, your workforce.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"If you're looking for new ways to drive accountability and improve individual and organizational performance, read this book." Dan Pink, New York Times bestselling author of Drive and When

From the Publisher

GREG BUSTIN is a business and leadership consultant, an international speaker, and a Master Chair for Vistage International, the world's largest CEO membership organization. He writes a monthly bulletin sent to more than 5,000 executives globally and regularly speaks at events in the United States, Canada, Australia, and the UK. His perspective on leadership has appeared in the Wall Street Journal, Barron's, the Dallas Morning News, and other major publications.

From the Author

If you happen to believe driving performance and creating a culture where accountability matters is all about having a tough conversation, you'll miss the bigger point. I certainly did when I was leading my firm. The conversation is not the starting point: It's the exclamation point. Long before that conversation about performance occurs, dozens of other practices must be in place if you expect to drive accountability throughout your organization, and my interviews with leaders at some of the most successful companies in the world reveals how they make accountability a competitive advantage.

A Powerful Handbook for Driving Accountability in Organizations
Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2014

Greg Bustin offers a roadmap - not just for talking about accountability - but for bringing it to life within an organization. As a fellow Vistage Chair for eleven years, I can tell you that Greg's Seven Pillars of Accountability ring absolutely true. They are the keys to fulfilling the mission of the business, whatever that may be. This book IS research based, contrary to another reviewer's opinion. It is qualitative research, based on the assessment of thousands of small to mid sized companies. It's also based on hundreds of hours of interviews of successful CEOs.

If you are a leader who sees accountability as crucial to the success of your business, read this book. Take the assessment in Chapter Three. Better yet, have all of your key leaders and managers take it as well. Buy the book and have everyone on your team read it [I get no monetary compensation for book sales, BTW, even though I am Greg's colleague]. Then take the results of the assessment to an offsite for discussion. Use your team to create your own roadmap to greater accountability, utilizing Greg's principles. The book is a terrific tool: use it to empower your team and you will almost certainly have a better business with an even better culture and the results you want.

As a sales trainer and consultant, I've recommended this book to all of our clients. The name says it all. While we all want accountability from employees in the workplace, this book shows you what CULTURE stands for and how to create high performance for long term results. C - U - L- T- U - R- E stands for Character, Unity, Learning, Tracking, Urgency, Reputation and Evolving. I think I used up an entire highlighter on this book.
